Description
Salut à toutes et tous !
I am a French citizen living in the UK since 2010, engineer, fighter and tango dancer. During the pandemic, I fell in love with the Italian language, before developing an affection for the entire country and (most of) its inhabitants.
I currently work in a hospital where I support the safety and quality of services involving medical devices for patients and staff. Expert in conducting risk assessments, I feel it’s time to take more risk in my own life! After nearly 2 decades of dedication to my field, I’ve decided to listen to a new call for exploration: my personal adventure this year will be to immerse myself in Italy, this time not as a tourist.
Far beyond providing me with the benefit (most welcome for sure!) of a free accommodation, I see these Workaway opportunities as opening doors onto professions and passions which make use of a range of senses, manual, artistic and soft skills, and are closer to nature and animals.
These are precisely the parts of me I wish to nurture and further develop, learning either from experts or alongside experimenters. I am a reflective, organised and accountable individual, keen helper within my remit and humble learner to expand it!
Looking forward to meeting all the wonderful beings who will shape this year with me. -

Quelles sont vos compétences ?
Being trained and having worked in engineering for many years (notably as a systems engineer, testing and supporting Raman spectrometers in the field), I favour logical thinking and have a high attention to detail.
I also have an awareness of safeguarding and natural ability for care, which I have demonstrated both in my current job in a hospital setting and in my private life with my 3-year-old niece.
I have the patience to do meticulous jobs, as well as the energy for more physical tasks. For example, I happily helped friends and family in their house moves, and helped a colleague to extract and transport chunky sandstones from their garden. Once I understand my task or role and have a clear enough vision of what to achieve, I take pride in progressing matters and enjoy interacting with stakeholders and other people to promote fruitful collaborations.
From my childhood through to adolescence, I used to draw and paint: something I would love to revive.
My German now feels quite rusty, but I am fluent in and regularly practise English, Italian, and of course French, my mother tongue. Always happy to improve my Italian and open to language exchanges. -

I felt welcome by man and cat right from my arrival. It was such a pleasure to be Gigio’s playmate; so much that I was always looking forward to coming “back home” after my explorations. The communication with Francesco was easy and clear, which I consider as key for everything to run … read more
