    Description

    Hello everybody!

    We are searching for a period of two/three weeks in the period from the middle of February 2026 to the middle/end of March 2026

    We are a family of five: Fabrizio (my husband), Giovanna (me), Laura (our daughter of 18 years old), Kera (the black cat) and Kio (the white and grey cat). We are all sociable and smiling people.

    We hosted several workawayers in the past and we had great experience with them!

  • Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We love to host open minded people, who will regard to this experience as a way to learn from sharing a different culture, rather than having a cheap room. We are open to talk about different features of our cultures and to a deep a real human exchange.

    We are sociable, open, interested in knowing people from all over the world and learning from our workawayers. We could tell you more about Italian culture, habits, interests and you could dip into the Italian way of life. We can speak both english and spanish so communication won't be a problem.

    We are outspoken and frank people and we would love to host people with the same attitude: everything is simpler when things are said!

    We are also flexible and goodhearted people and we would love to find the same attitude in our guests.

    We are interested in sharing-economy, bartering, ecological issues, local economy and we think that addressing to this website is a little way to change the world. We also love personal growth, fitness and quality of life.

  • Help

    Help

    The help would consist in doing do-it-yourself little tasks in the apartment. We have to paint little parts of our windows frame that are detaching from the wood and I will help out during the task. Also little retouch of the wall could be done together. I will constantly support the workawayer in the task. We could consider to host couples although we would prefer a single workawayer because with a single person we could have a better exchange and I could follow her/him more.

    We are searching for people with a possible previous experience in these tasks and precise and careful in the work. We don't expect doing a lot of things, but doing them well.

    Some do it yourself skills and previous experience with it would be highly appreciated.

    We expect a responsible, open, mature and dynamic person, willing to be part of the family but independent at the same time and enough flexible to perform different tasks according to our needs.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    We can offer you two options:

    1) A SHARED OPTION
    In this case we offer a private single bedroom in our apartment with a shared bathroom or, in some cases, a double bedroom with a private bathroom. (in the photo you just see the single bedroom).
    The bedroom has a single bed but a second bed can be added in case we host couples or, in some cases, we can offer a double bedroom with a private bathroom.

    2) AN INDEPENDENT OPTION
    In this case we can offer a bedroom at the ground floor with a double sofa bed and a personal bathroom with sink, wc and bidet but without shower. For the shower the workawayer can rely on the shower of the apartment. This room has no heating and therefore the workaway should rely on an electric stove.

    We can discuss with the workawayer which is the best option for both before arrival.

    Meals are included in the hospitality.

    The flat is provided with Internet connection and we could also provide you with a bycicle during your stay.

    We are open and sociable people and we have always welcomed our workawayer as part of the family.

    We wait to hear form you soon!
