Description

I’ve been using Wwoof and Workaway since 2020, when I left my job to live other lives in places I didn’t know, spending more time outdoors than in, and exploring the potential (mine and the world’s) that I hadn’t yet discovered.
I started out looking for hands-on work on farms and ranches, where I gave a lot and learned just as much (see the “More details about your skills” section). Eventually, I asked myself whether it might be more useful, for both me and my hosts, to offer my skills as a photographer. And that’s exactly what I’ve done.
Today, I’m looking for opportunities as a photographer and social media specialist, but I’m also happy to take care of animals and help with outdoor work, especially when there’s a chance to learn something new.
I'm a hard worker and a curious compulsive asker. I always like to understand the logic behind every action or task. I like people who are open, curious, straightforward, and have a good sense of humor.
Formalities make me uncomfortable, but I value politeness and mutual respect.


Previous experiences:
after hiking the Pacific Crest Trail in 2019 I had the opportunity to stay and work on an organic farm near Santa Rosa. In 2020 I worked for two months in Poland, joining three different farms. In 2021 I worked for 2 months in a biodynamic ranch in Colorado and for other 2 months in a bison ranch in Montana where I went back in 2022 for 3 months and in 2024 for 6 months. In 2023 I worked for 6 weeks in an animal rescue center close to Dublin (Ireland), and in 2024 for 3 months in a guest house in Haida Gwaii (Canada)
