Beschreibung
Hi There,
We are Alberto and me (Valeria): the crew!
My husband, Alberto, follows the daily farm tasks.
We live in an ancient farm House in Italy, close to the Maggiore Lake and at the bottom of a hill, Sangiano Mountain.
Alberto is bolivian and I'm italian.
We have 4 dogs and a huge rural farm house.
We need specific help in housekeeping, preparing meals, plants and taking care of veggie and animals as chickens,
but also maintenance, gardening, decorating etc ...
We love create connection and intercultural exchange.
Help is volunteering, but we offer accomodation ( private or, just in case, sharing room- but only with others workawayers - ) food, hot water shower, washing machine, wifi and a bike to go around.
We could provide a private park, if you want to join us by your own car.
We are looking for polite and sunny people who are glad to spend time with us and share culture and knowledge.

Arbeit
I list the help requested just to give you more details but the activities could change based on season, whether and owners needed.
Expertises are not requested but you must be aware of:
- We work 5 hours/day and we aspect only hard workers;
- Field is always down in a ground level so no bad backs for gardening tasks;
- House is huge, we live in the country yard and we share our place within 6 to 20 people (workawayers) at the same time, so no bad backs (about tasks) and no sweet heart ( about the respecting of the house rules to keep everything as much clean as possible)
- PROJECTS are in the WA standard (25hours/week) but they are not in the standard calendar based.
We work super hard in double shifts for maximum 2 day and half CONSECUTIVE. This is great deal for people who love to see the results of their work but they are also for hard workers and hard lovers because concentrate the working hours open the spare time period. 2,5 working days/week with 4,5 spare time days. you could spent going around our amazing area or to arrange small journey to Torino, Venice, Milan, Florence, Pisa etc..
