Description

I'm a girl from Italy and I've just finished my studies in engineering school.

I've always wanted to join Workaway, I've been thinking about it for years and now it feels like it's the perfect time! I'm fascinated with the idea of living in a new country, meeting new people while doing some good - it's a different way of traveling that resonates with me because I enjoy less touristy and crowded places.

Since I was a child and I saw my older cousins going on Erasmus, I've always dreamt of studying and living abroad. My dream came true for the first time when I was 17 and I spent a part of my second last high school year in Spain, living with a family from Ecuador: it was a unique experience and I think I was truly happy during that time. After that, I continued my studies in Italy, away from my hometown, but I was lucky enough to go on my very own Erasmus twice, in Poland and in Switzerland.

I'm not new to volunteering: after my first Erasmus, I joined Erasmus Student Network, which allowed me to get in touch with exchange students in my city, help them with their life in a new country, and organize events for them.

As a workawayer, I would love to meet new people, listen to their life stories and sharing mine, try new foods, cook dishes from my country for people to try. I would love to help people and have an impact on their lives, while making unforgettable memories.

Plus de détails sur les langues qui m'intéressent
I really love the concept of language learning and I'm very fascinated by it. I've always loved studying grammar and pointing out the differences and similarities between languages. I could easily say I have studied foreign languages my whole life, in some way!

Enseignement

Quelles sont vos compétences ?

I speak Italian, Spanish and English fluently and I have experience teaching Spanish to middle school kids. Another thing I did is tutoring kids and young adults for maths and physics.
I'm also good with computers, even if I don't have a computer engineer deep knowledge, but I'm quite good at technology.
In general, I could help with anything unless it's something very physically demanding (I don't have lots of muscles). I'm very precise and if I have instructions to follow I will make sure I do everything in the right way!

Autres infos...

I love music! I listen to a lot of music, nothing too fancy, I just love learning the tunes and decoding the lyrics. From 10 to 19 years, I played in a school band and we used to do something that I would call street percussion/junk percussion: it was so much fun! I know how to read percussion music sheets and I'm currently learning how to read the notes. I had some attempts at playing the piano but I'm not very good.
In the future for sure I would like to study music more seriously and take lessons of piano and percussion.
