  • Description

    Hi!

    My name is Martina, I am 23, and come from Northern Italy. At 19, I moved abroad to pursue my studies in London, UK, where I currently live.

    I spent my childhood in the countryside, living among fields, trees, cows, and more cows, and I always dreamt of travelling to a big city, where I could embark on a demanding career and live a busy life.

    Though I am young, I quickly realised that I now crave some time back in nature, where I can sustain a more eco-friendly routine, and 'connect with the roots'
    I have travelled solo in my teens, driven by learning of different cultures, and improving my English, and my interest to explore some more is still strong! I have been to Australia, Asia, North America, and I treasure meeting new people that I can have deep conversations with.

    I am not an expert of carpentry, gardening or woodworking, I will be honest. However, I am extremely adaptable, I work hard, and I have the greatest respect for people, nature, and everything in between!
    I am not fussy, and whatever task I am required to do, I will, no matter how dirty my hands get.

    At the moment, as I am just starting this new path, I am open to experiences in the U.K, or Europe.

  • More details about your skills

    I speak English and Italian, and have a Bachelor degree in Design Management. I have experience working in the editorial field, and enjoy writing.
    Despite growing up in the countryside of Northern Italy, I am yet to master the arts of practical jobs, such as carpentry, or woodworking.
    However, my experience working with people taught me some important basics of adaptability, hard work, teamwork, and discipline.
