We are a German Romanian couple living in a small traditional village near Timisoara (Romania). We produce our own food but we still generate the main income from freelance jobs. We hope one day to start a ”green camping” where one can camp between our cucumbers supports and eat the delicious organic meals we cook... Our house is open for helpers that look for experiences in wild Eastern European countryside and enjoy simple living in a traditional village. As one of us works for a cultural Association in Timisoara, we are particularly happy to host people with experience in street performances / busking (music in particular) as we can intermediate the necessary permits in the city. We prefer volunteers stat stay at least one week.

I am a 34-year-old American mom living in Italy with my two gorgeous little girls (4 and 1) and my lovely Italian husband. We live in a picturesque medieval village called Montefegatesi in the Apennine Mountains. Our family is thoroughly bilingual/bicultural evidenced by an infusion of both American and Italian influences in virtually all aspects of our lives. My Cuban background also plays quite a significant role, particularly when it comes to cooking:) Our oldest daughter is currently attending pre-school part-time and our little one is either with me or with my fantastic mother-in-law who lives a stone's throw away. My husband is working towards self-employment and I am in the process of manageing a rental property and launching a blog. I am most in need of someone who will help keep my house tidy and clean while I raise my children and work. However, the role does not end there. Depending on your skills, I welcome help with all different types of tasks. There is also an opportunity for builders or anyone looking to do some physical labour. We are open to singles as well as couples and would prefer individuals who are looking to stay for at least two weeks. However, do not hesitate to apply if you are aiming for a shorter stay. We may be able to work something out. Also, please come prepared with volunteer work insurance.
