    Description

    We are Federico the surfer, Gaia Olistic Doula, Gregorio the imaginative, Leone the grit, the crazy dog ​​Nya and outdoor cats. we are a homeschooler family, we have a chicken coop and a vegetable garden to be restored, so we are looking for a male who loves Nature and effort and speakes very well English language. with our camperized van we tour Europe starting from the Sienese Chianti wood. We have a piano and guitars to play, a fire to keep burning and a community full of friends big and small. It is important to have a driving license. We ask for an English language exchange and collaboration for home and woodland garden activities.
    We are a family on the move between the mountains and the sea, even in winter and therefore the au pair can stay alone at home in managing the animals.
    The workawayer will help us in the activities of collecting wood and in the home management of lunch and dinner, they are invited to cook typical dishes of their culture and family history, to feel at home and a member of the family with enthusiasm and joy.
