Description

Hello good people of internet and house owners (hope I can be one of those one day).

I'm Francesco (everyone calls me Chico), I like travelling (who doesn't) and for this past year or so workaway essentially became my life. I'm happy to learn new languages and I'm a big cheesecake enthusiast. I have no idea if this bio needs to be serious or fun so I'm trying a bit of both.

For the serious part, I have a big background on translations and localisation and QA stuff, as for the most part of the last 10 years I was working translating videogames. I have also a big experience in Hospitality, since I worked for a couple of years in different hotels and I also happen to have majored in Tourism in university. For the most part of this year I've done projects where the main focus was hospitality, in fact. Most of my job related to that was dealing with guests, which if I may say so I think I'm good at this, and also housekeeping, which thanks to some serious OCD I realised I'm also very good at keeping places clean, tidy and well organized (my pain is your gain).

I don't have a loooot of experience with DIY and basic life stuff, like fixing things, carpentry, gardening, manual labor and etc... which is one of the reasons I am here, as I am hoping to pick up a few skills and improve on that front. I did however joined some projects where I did a bit of all that so now I can say that at least I know some of the basics (don't really know why but I particularly enjoy sanding, it's just satisfying to see the progress as you work with a sanding machine).

Another reason I'm here is that since I have always been very fortunate on my trips, considering the big amount of people I met who always took really good care of me in several different places, I feel like through this I can also do something for someone as well. Just trying to balance things and give something back to the universe, in any way I can.

For the fun and goofy part, I have also spent a lot of time during this last 7 years travelling to many places, almost everywhere in Europe, but also some places in the Middle Eastern and North Africa too (debatable fun fact, my Corona virus story is that I was stuck in Siberia during lockdown for 6 months). I love nature, quiet and peaceful places especially, even more so around water, such as lakes or rivers or the sea, even a swimming pool. But I also enjoy big cities (London and Firenze are my favourite cities in the world). Nothing in the world makes me as happt as snow, a big fan of cold weather, but I also appreciate a nice beach day. Thunderstorms make me very happy, as much as trying a local dessert (Big ice cream enthusiast, chocolate lover and fan of all things sweet). They usually go well with binging series on streamings (I think I have most of them, thanks to my brother).


If you like what you read, don't hesitate to get in touch, I am always happy to meet new people and explore new places. Above all because I still need a place to live, so naturally I'm glad to hear from you guys!
