Description
Hi!
This is Giulia and Francesca from Italy, two young ladies passionate of travelling, exploring new cultures and traditions and meeting people from all over the word.
Since 15 year we are travelling through Europe, Asia, Australia and America. We are "slow travelers" and we love combining an itinerant travel with volunteering experiences. We did it in our recent experiences: this gave us the chance to meet people, to participate in their project, to exchange experiences. Breathing the spirit of daily life and sharing the work with other people means for us feeling home away from home.
We love living by the nature and we are involved in environmental protection.
We did volunteering in hostel, camping and turist huts so we are familiar with taking care of travellers and with the daily routine of running an hotel.
We also partecipated in agricoltural project, mainly in ecological structures.
We are both Registered Yoga Teacher (RYT 200), we are interested in yoga, meditation and spiritual growth.
We are quiet persons, independent, easy going and happy.
We love cooking, sharing our recipes and learning new one!
We are both fluent in english and spanish.
Giulia: I’m a freelance photographer and a writer.
I'm creative and lI'll be glad to help in any art project. In my blog you can see a selection of my photos: www.gecoviaggiatore.it
Francesca: I’m a social worker with 10 years experience with kids and teenagers. I'm also a street art performer: I do shows with giant bubble soaps (FB: xiafra). I studied fine arts and love drawing, painting and decorating. In my past workaway experiences, I did some paintings and wall decorations, as you can see on our profile photos.
