  Description

  Hi! first of all thanks for looking to our Workaway experience, for us, that means that we are doing the things right. Feel free to look, ask us every thing you want so you can ve sure that’s what you are looking.
  
  Talking about us, we are a couple from two countries. Rodrigo (40) from Chile and Camilla (39) from Italy that with a lot of love have Emma (4 Years old) and Rosa (6 months)
  
  We start our new country life 3 years ago, when we bought our first piece of land. At the beginning it was a mess, because it was abandone. Now after some work we finish the first house, working in the second one and growing up with the fields and the coultive of olive trees.
  
  We live in the middle of olive's fields with more that 300 trees. From our land you can see Segesta Temple (one of the most important of Italy), the sea and the mountain Inci. So in this way you are in the middle of the island and the real Sicilia.
  
  Before being farmers (or at least trynig), Camilla is an architect and Rodrigo is an engineer. Being a couple one of the things that we like the most it’s traveling and doing sports (paragling, sailng, biking, camping, trekking, etc…). That helps us a lot with our dream, because, we know a lot of different cultures, places and people, that it’s directly involve because we choose all of our favorite things that we know to mix them and build our dream.
  
  What do we ask?
  We want you to be one more in the team, to help us in what you can, share with us your experience. If you can, teach us something that we don’t know every day it’s important to learn something more.
  About the work, for our business activity we ave employed people, but the country life need a lot of diary work. We need help in it. In the maintenance of the spaces around our house, making the familiar vegetable garden.
  We also have some animals (two donkeys, two sheeps and some chickens) and we ask to people to help us to take care of them.
  In our house we speak Italian, Spanish and English … Any way after traveling for many countries we know that is you want to communicate it’s always posible, even if we don’t speak the same language
  
  We offer accomodations in a wheels house that is parked close to our house.
  You can use our services (bathroom and kitchen) and common spaces.
  We offer you 3 meals (breakfast lunch and dinner). We always try to cook something that all can appreciate. We are not vegetarian but we always try to offer a vegetarian alternative if you need.
  Meals are our best moments, as in any typical Italian family around the table we love to share our histories and heard from you yours.
  
  It's important to understand that we are a family with two small childrens living in the house.
  So is necessary to have respect of them helping to maintain clean the common spaces, in particular the bathroom and the kitchen.
  
  If you are interested to come, please write us when you can arrive, for how many time and a WhatsApp number to contact you.
  Thanks
  
  We are waiting for you!!
