  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  I would actively engage with Workawayers, sharing traditions, and experiences. : I’d invite them to participate in family or team activities, outings, and celebrations. This could include local festivals, cooking together, or exploring nearby attractions.
  Upon arrival, I’d greet them warmly, introduce them to other family members and show them around.
  We don’t live too far from the sea, and on weekends, we’d like to take the person with us to experience the Tuscan Riviera.

  Help

  Alessio would spend the whole day in front of video games, but we’d like to seize this opportunity to nurture his other passions, namely playing the guitar, reading manga, drawing, and engaging in role-playing games like D&D.
  Our son has excellent grades in English, and we would like him to also acquire listening and pronunciation skills.

  Sometimes Workawayers may occasionally cook for for themselves or explore local eateries.
  For three days a week, we won’t be available for lunch, and our guest will need to arrange something to eat either with our son or explore something local nearby. In this case, we’ll provide a small budget.

  What else ...

  We work in Siena and Florence, although some days of the week we do smartworking. In the evenings, we enjoy gathering for dinner, sharing our days, taking walks, meeting friends for a drink, or perhaps indulging in some gelato. We also love outdoor cinema and summer concerts.
