Descrição
Ciao tutti

I am so excited to visit Italy again during springtime. I've spent the past year at my home in Belgium, 6 months longer than planned, because I spontaneously accepted a job at a boarding school for girls. Supporting these teens has been highly rewarding, yet I cannot deny the travel bug that is calling me to expand my world and welcome new experiences.

I would describe myself as a friendly and cheerful young lady who loves to live, love and laugh. I enjoy hearty laughter, the sun on my face, the grass beneath my bare feet, making others feel good, a caring planet, deep conversations, board games, singing, gentle kindness, cuddly cats, working with wood, slow living, strangers who become friends, (head) massages, playful movement, tending the (vegetable) garden, reading romantic novels, the support of someone who kindly pushes me out of my comfort zone, exploring arts and crafts, swimming (preferably naked, preferably in a lake), solving (crossword) puzzles and riddles, exploring new not-too-crowded places, quality time with loved ones, (chocolate) ice cream, reflecting on life, wandering off the beaten track, writing on paper, watching the stars, non-alcoholic dance parties, being offline, making someone smile, ...

I hope to find a Workaway from mid-March up until June with people who match this energy. I am very much looking forward to meeting new people and making new friends!

Much love and gratitude ♡

Quais são suas habilidades?
Since 1,5 years now, I've been working as a masseuse. I offer gentle classical and lomi lomi massages, and aside from the joy of bringing soothing touch to people, I actually really enjoy creating a cosy and safe container for people to slow down, unwind and relax.

I'm also a skilled study coach for teenagers. This is what I call a positive challenge: to figure out what they are struggling with and what could possibly help them move forward with confidence. I'm someone who is quite good at creative problem solving, a useful skill in this kind of setting.

When my social battery isn't drained yet, I am a good listener. My sensitive personality traits enable me to quickly notice when something or someone feels off. I will always strive towards harmony and balance, both within myself, a space or a group of people.

I enjoy to have an overview of things, help to structurize chaos, make lists and draw schemes. I'm a good organiser.

I have experience with carpentry, DIY and painting from previous Workaways. I enjoy building and creating things. Painting (walls, fences, cabins etc) is an enormously soothing task I can put my great attention to detail to use.

I also have experience in gardening, farming and plant care through the many ecological, sustainable or farmbased Workaways I've taken part in. I enjoy working outdoors and taking care of plants, animals or people. I have a heart for both the earth and people ♡

Algo mais...
I have to return to Belgium end of May. (I might come back after, but I will decide closer to date.)

Due to chronic pain, I am not a morning person. I enjoy waking up slowly, giving my body the chance to move from stillness to action at its own pace. I also need to carefully mix and match physical activities with rest or activities which are less straining on the body. Variety is key. Lucky for me, my interests are widely spread.

I recently picked up paddle tennis and as I really enjoy the sport it would be a bonus to get to play it in Italy as well.

Another sport I would really like to try is wing foiling! Not sure my physical body is up for the challenge, but I sure as hell would like to try!

All in all I am a big advocate of living up to one's greatest potential. For me that means being able to use my gifts and talents in order to create a bit more beauty in this world, to be in an environment where I can be my truest self and to have the opportunity to spread love, give hope and bring joy.

I am so excited to continue my journey looking for like-minded people to share life with, pursue dreams with and to grow together ❤

the time spent with Yasmine was very profound, she is a nice and smiling soul, who transmits tranquility and serenity.

My stay with Manu had everything I could possibly ask for in a Workaway! Manu is an incredibly kind, generous, funny and considerate host, whose beautiful soul is represented in the music he plays and the overly delicious food that he prepares.

I really enjoyed my stay with Lucie! She is a very kind, considerate, fun, generous and incredibly appreciative host.

Yasmine and I spent a very pleasant couple of weeks together, both alone and with other helpers present. She is smart, extremely competent and capable, highly skilled in many different areas such as painting (very neatly!) and woodworking. In fact she even set up a new table saw and used it to complete a very helpful project, for which I am truly… read more

I really enjoyed my stay! It took me a few days to get used to the daily routine, but I ended up staying one month on this beautiful property.
The work is different every day. You start at 8, 9 or 10 am, depending on the number of guests and what needs to be done that day, and you end around 5 or 6 pm, with a 2 hour break after lunch.
I really… read more enjoyed working with the animals: making sure they have enough clean water, feeding them apples, making a new fence for the sheep, giving the geese some fresh hay to sleep on... I also liked my little projects of tidying up outside: pruning the lavender bushes on the terraces, picking leaves and weeds in the energy circle and removing the brown leaves from the tomato plants. Oh, how I miss those tasty tomatoes already!
I have to warn anyone who goes there that the food is truly magical. And that there's a danger of eating too much, because it's just so good ;-).
The property itself and its surroundings also have a magical touch to it. I can highly recommend to have a walk around or just sit down and watch the sheep or be stunned by a breathtaking sunset or night sky.
Besides the work, the food and the surroundings, I really liked to sit around the table, just talking to and laughing with these wonderful people. It made me feel part of the family :-).
And I would like to say thanks for welcoming me in this lovely family the way you did. It felt like home.
If I could give you one tiny hint of feedback, it would be to express your gratitude a little more. I'm sure you're grateful for all the work that's been done, but it's always nice to hear you give your appreciation by saying "Thank you", "Well done" or "That looks nice".
And by returning the favour, I would like to tell you that I think you do an amazing job on running this business! You can definitely be proud of yourselves and your achievements. I'm pretty sure it will only continue to improve because of your commitment and hard work.
Thank you, Ananda, for considering my dislike of cleaning jobs and for giving me other assignments instead. It didn't go unnoticed ;-).
Thank you, Caso, for sharing your knowledge about and love for food.
Thank you, Birgitt, for your hugs and motherly concern.
Thank you all, for inviting me into your home. I made many unforgettable memories.
All the best and I'll keep in touch.
Yasmine
