  • Description

    Hello!
    We are Elisa and Alessandro, a loving couple from Italy.
    We've been together for 3 years, and our shared dream has always been to travel together.
    Finally, after various life commitments, we find ourselves in a position to make this dream a reality.
    To start, we would like to explore various European countries and experience different environments, from the sea to the countryside to the mountains.
    We are curious people and enjoy discovering as many places, people, and ways of life as possible.
    So far, we've only been to Spain, but it was enough to realize that we make a great team, each with our own personality and skills, but with shared interests.
    Later on, we would love to visit other continents as well, such as South America and Asia.
    We consider ourselves to be simple and easygoing people who can adapt to different situations, whether it's living with a family or sleeping in a tent.
    We have several months available, and we are ready to embark on what we hope will be an experience full of new discoveries with those who wish to share it with us.

    Now, let us tell you a bit about ourselves:

    Hi everyone, I'm Elisa and I'm Italian-Hungarian. I graduated this year in language mediation, specializing in English, Spanish, and Russian. Next year, I want to do a master's in interpreting, but for now, I'm taking a gap year to travel. I think being a workawayer is one of the best ways to really experience different cultures and languages. In 2021, I did an Erasmus+ program and spent four months in Spain, where I made lasting friendships.
    I've worked for several years as a receptionist and discovered that I really enjoy working with people. I also have some experience as a bartender. My last job was in a holiday village, where I did check-ins, check-outs, and helped guests with any issues. The job was busy, but I had a lot of fun.
    In my free time, I enjoy reading, but also staying active. I usually train at the gym, but I also like outdoor sports and trying new activities. Recently, I started practicing yoga and I'm excited to learn more about it, as well as meditation.

    Hi, I’m Alessandro. Throughout my life, I’ve done many different jobs to find my path and improve my skills. I spent several years managing a venue, where I discovered my talent for working with the public, and also picked up some skills as a bartender and in staff management so finally running a food service business. Before that, I volunteered as a rescue driver, operating emergency vehicles, and worked as a security guard. Currently, I work as a tour leader for commercial events.
    I consider myself a cheerful and helpful person, as well as adventurous and sporty. My main characteristic is my desire to help others.
