  Descripción

  PLEASE READ THE DESCRIPTION FULLY
  
  FYI: In order to be considered as a Workawayer, you must be a minimum of 21 years old, and your availability must be at least 1 month.
  We require European citizenship or permission to work.
  Also, we are not able to host couples or groups.
  
  Ciao! I’m a 27-year-old guy who runs a Boutique Hotel in Tuscany, near Montepulciano, with my family and staff.
  The estate, located in a beautiful position, on a hill of the Tuscan countryside, surrounded by vineyards, olive groves, sunflower fields, and lakes, is one of the most famous in the area.
  
  Every year, the Villa is getting busier and busier, since we are trying to improve as much as we can.
  Last year we opened our little restaurant for guests and visitors.
  
  We are looking for someone to help us with various tasks.
  The most important will be serving, maintenance and taking care of the guests.
  As the serving in our restaurant can be very intensive and requires lots of professionalism, we expect working experience in the restaurant sector.
  This helps us to provide our guests with the best service possible.
  
  The schedule is the following:
  
  Breakfast 8:00 - 11:00
  Preparing the breakfast area, serving clients and cleaning up the area afterwards.
  
  Lunch 13:00 - 14:00
  Not every day requested.
  Preparing table, serving lunch, cleaning up area.
  
  Dinner 19:30 - 21:30
  Preparing and putting tables (Can be further away in the garden, therefore good physical conditions are required)
  Serving dinner & cleaning up afterwards
  
  Other tasks during the day:
  Cleaning up & serving pool area
  Swipe around the house
  Preparing Cinema night at 22:00 (evenings can get late at the Villa)
  
  Consider that we are working in shifts!
  
  We’re always busy at the Villa, therefore we seek workawayers who have knowledge or skills in serving, house maintenance, and guest care and take their tasks seriously.
  We are hard-working people, so we’re also looking for workawayers who can get up early to make breakfast and go to bed late after serving dinner.
  All this of course, whilst enjoying the work we do.
  
  We require flexibility regarding the working hours per day since the tourism sector is very hard to plan.
  However, there will be one free day every week in which there is the possibility to rent a bike or Vespa or to take the train to explore the surrounding area.
  
  I believe that having different points of view from people around the world is one of the most important things for a business.
  Maybe you can teach us something!
  
  We are looking for a Workawayer, but mostly for a loyal and respectful friend, a new foreign member of our family!

  Normally we go to the Villa in the morning and come back in late evening, so you will spend both breakfast and dinner there. Since we have a restaurant, the everyday meals are prepared by our chef.
