  • Description

    Dear people from Workaway,
    We are a family of three and we are now traveling with Workaway, all together.
    Our life trip began thanks to Workaway itself not so long ago, but from very distant places and realities.

    Mariya studied tourism and is a professional yoga teacher. She left home in 2022, out of a pure inspirational thought, barely one month after the former threat of an invasion concretized into war in her country. Countless adventures followed, both with and without Workaway, accompanying her through Europe and some of the best friends and memories to remember.
    Alessandro, is the one who left his birthplace in Italy to find its real self, on the other side of the world in Canada. All thanks to Workaway he abandoned everything, his job and his old life to travel the world. He crossed back the Atlantic to journey through Europe as he always desired, rebirthed, to blossom into the best place he could fall in love after pruning his old self off.
    Eventually, Belgium was the pot where these two purified lonely seeds landed and rooted.
    Among the most enchanting dance of wind, our souls experienced many adventures with Workaway in Europe and, magically, blossomed together into each other. The fruit of this meshing flowered into something as tiny as infinite, our daughter Aura.
    We chose Italy as our nest, next to Ale’s hometown, to begin our journey as a family. There Ale had the chance to fix the bond with his family and Mary to fall in love with the Italian culture, food and beauty.
    After 20 months of seasoning though, it was time to change the air and move away from those tight valleys to open up our minds and find a place of our own to grow as a family, away from expensive rents and touristic areas. In between this transition, we went back to Workaway and we are now preparing all the necessary to move to Canada for one year, next year. In the meantime, we are looking for family-friendly projects in Italy, or close by.
    We are willing to share our experience and help and learn from people alike.
    Talking about us;
    Ale is a so-called “jack of all trades”. He fixes and builds things, from industrial machines to houses, and sometimes even people, or their bellies at least with delicious food. Ale is indeed specialised in electric industrial maintenance, electronics, IT and he worked with wood, concrete and metal in DIY projects and home renovation. He’s been a chef, a professional window cleaner and used to cook for large groups in his free time.
    Mariya fixes people instead, directly and indirectly through yoga and love. The experience of pregnancy and her first steps into motherhood brought her to study and practice about postpartum rehab and natural parenting, to name a few. She's a professional yoga teacher but she started her path out of a bachelor in tourism and she has been tour guide and hotel manager. Mariya pushes on natural living and she’s one of the best at cooking vegetarian/vegan food but she also loves to take care of the green and plants.
    Aura is that bright and smart creature who follows us everywhere by both our and her feet, just spitting a few words. Like a colorful bouquet of flowers on a festive coach.

    There’s so much to learn, it’s an endless process of discoveries and Mary’s passion is bringing Ale the will and desire to get back to studies in some years, hopefully. Maria has been getting deeper and wider consciousness about parenting and women's health and she desires to learn from other’s experiences and share her knowledge. On the opposite side, Ale wants a bachelor to become a technician, hopefully freelancer, into industrial safety or inspections and lay the stones for a path on his own so to have the most free time possible to spend with family and passions (them being technical too).
    About passions Ale loves to invent, fix and create things in general. He collects Lego, plays PC games, writes sometimes and he just got into photography.
    Mary loves to read, write her diary, walk in nature and of course to practice yoga.

    We are not long term planners, we like to live our choices as they show to us so what comes after is a mystery but the real truth is how much we love traveling and volunteering because that's how our family was born. If you’re reading this it may be because we would indeed love to come by, and give the best of ourselves as we are so passionately to do.

    Alessandro, Mary and Aura, with love.

  • Autres infos...

    Since we're traveling with our toddler daughter we expect comprehension and flexibility and we cannot be working at the same time as one of us should always be with Aura. This means we'd be alternating in our daily shifts but still work our due hours per week.
