About me


• ABOUT MY TRAVEL/LIFE
I just come back in Italy after six months around Florida and US east coast. That was one of my real life experience. I decided to take a six months visit to America to improve my English, to explore a new culture, to share my skills with people, and to learn new skills. And at the end of my travel I had more than what I think.
I arrived to Florida in December where I'm doing a work exchange program called WWOOF, World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms. It is a beautiful organic farm where I work about 35 hours a week maintaining garden beds, harvesting for farmers markets, and cooking meals for the others at the farm. After I stay with workaway in a EcoVillage where I met a lot of people and I found my American Family. In my time off I like to run, study English, read, and make bread and pizza like I did in Italy.
Now I'm came in Italy two weeks ago and I have a couple months before leave in Australia. And I would like to go in Balkanic area!
