Description
Hi, I'm Giulia!
I'm an Italian 27-years-old and from June '24 I have taken a pause from my regular life to travel, explore and learn through workaway!
I have a degree in Gender Studies and I was working in a museum, but, since I was getting a bit tired of my routine, I decided to take some time just to travel around and I've been really enjoying it so far! With workaway, I love to make myself useful by helping people pratice English or Italian, if they want to learn it, and be helpful in the care of the house where I am hosted in any way possible, and I don't despise physical work!
My interests and hobbies are mainly reading, listening to podcasts (radio and podcasts interest me a lot!), travelling, deep talks about culture and history, listening to other people's experiences! I also enjoy working with cultivations, gardening, animals and construction (although I still have a lot to learn)!
I would really love to learn new skills as well as learn about cultures different from mine and teach something about Italy as well!
I am currently studying to get a TEFL, to become a professional English teacher!
Throughout my life, I had the chance to do different jobs and live in different cities, and I hope workaway helps me in this journey!
I believe that I am a hardworker, respectful and easygoing person, looking forward to meeting new people and new lifestyles, learning new life skills and seeing new places!

More details about your skills
I am very patient, hardworking and I speak different languages.
In the last years, I have been working in a museum (at the ticket shop and as a guard), I picked grapes in France and I was a waitress in two different places for three years while I was still studying - this gave me the chance to try the working experience and develop skills such as being responsible, patience, language development, organising, cleaning, helping tourists and not being scared of physical work! In the past, I also attended a lot of language courses in the UK (I've been to Edinburgh, Norwich, Brighton and Worthing, 2 weeks each time), living with hosts-families, so I'm used to this kind of arrangement, shared with people. I have also been sharing flat with flatmates during the last 7 years while I was at university, so no problem sharing spaces!
I had 3 workaways this April 2024 in FInland, Sweden and Norway and they were all about gardening, painting and more (putting down wooden floor, feeding animals, cooking)! I had some workaway experiences in Ireland and Turkey so far!
I am fluent in English and Spanish (and of course Italian)!

I miss her already. She was a great roommate for me. She was always very helpful with houseworks. We had long conversations together to improve my English. She tried very hard to teach me something. She is really great teacher. :) We watched the series together and talked about it. Also she cooked for me delicios meals and visited my class.… read more

My stay at Hümeyra's place was just perfect, I can say she has been one of the best Workaway hosts I have been at! Her house is very cute, spacious and with all comforts, just at the outskirts of the marvellous Istanbul! I spent my time there speaking with her a lot, having extremely interesting and enriching conversations, while correcting her… read more

I had an amazing stay at Anne-Elizabeth and Rene's! I really enjoyed spending time with them and their numerous and lively family in such a marvellous scenary! They live in a very big house in the French Swiss pre-Alps, where I was accomodated in a single room and I had to share the bathroom just with their employee (everything was very… read more

I had the best time at Brida's place!
The work she needed to be done at her place was quite simple, and it mainly concerned tidying up, cleaning and reorganizing, and cooking. Her house is in the heart of Irish nature, with many different touristic attractions nearby. Brida often took the time to bring me around with her car to show me around… read more

Giulia stayed with us for about 2 weeks. It was a very positive experience to have her living with us.
She is a nice person to have around and we had many interessting talks about our countries, family and friends.
Giulia was very eager to learn something manual, so she got the task to put in a wooden floor. She was easy to work with and very… read more

I was at Anna and Teresa's place for a bit less than two weeks and it was a beautiful experience! They have been really welcoming, the place where they live is a farm surrounded by the Finnish nature and the work as well was very enjoyable (I was asked mainly to cook, help with handyman jobs, paint, garden and a couple of times to feed their cows… read more

We were so fortunate to have Giulia stay with us for a week to help with some spring painting and garden work. She was an absolute joy to have around and her help was greatly appreciated.

I had an amazing stay at Karin and Koos'!
It was very last minute and I only stayed at their place for 6 days, but I couldn't have asked for more: since the very beginning, they were extremely welcoming, kind, sociable and trustful! Their place is simply beautiful - probably at its best in the summertime-, surrounded by nature and very close to a… read more

I only stayed at Nathan's one day, but I want to make very clear that he was very kind, social, talkative and generous, he even cycled from the station for 40 mins with one of my backpacks on when he picked me up, so I really have nothing to say about him. The work, which I did just for one day, consisted mainly in gardening and painting, he… read more

Giulia stayed with us for two weeks in april. She is very friendly and did a good job in the garden, bringing next years firewood into the barn and some restoring of an old furniture. She also cooked real Italien food for us! It was a pleasure to host her. We which her all the best and recommend her to other hosts in workaway.

It was good to have Giulia staying with us and the doggies.
She was very quick at understanding what we needed from her and completed all tasks given to our satisfaction.
She got on with the doggies and walked them twice a day ,they send her their best woofs.
We recommend her to all future hosts and we would have her back without… read more
