    Hello Guys!

    my name is Claudio and I am glad to welcome you to our WorkAway's offer :).
    Let me introduce my family: We are an Italian family and it is composed of Me, my girlfriend (Kasia), my mother (Maria Teresa) and my father (Carmelo). We have 3 lovely dogs, they are chihuahua. We live in a big villa with the pool in front of the Sicilian beach.

    What about me:
    I am an entrepreneur. I got a diploma as an Industrial Electrotechnical Expert (electrical systems and industrial automation), and I am graduated in law, in tourism sciences. I am the owner of the family business and I also have an agency abroad in real estate and tourism training. I love working and studying marketing. I'm continually looking for new businesses, especially online ones. I love photography. In the past, I worked as a photographer and video reporter. During free time I like to read books, spend times with enjoy relaxing on the beach, going to the movies, playing sports, hiking in the mountains, driving my quad in the forest. I recently started an aviation adventure and for this reason, I need help for my family, especially when I'm abroad.

    My mother works at the city hall. She loves singing so much. She is the number one to organise parties in the pool for guests. My father works with maintenance in the vacation houses. He loves watching television, movies.

    My family is very open and fun. You can feel part of the family. People from southern Italy are generally more open, friendly and friendly people. We have already done many experiences by workaway and every experience has been magnificent. We love having guests at home. With all of them, we are still in touch!!! :)

    I hope you will be part of our family soon!

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    You can benefit from many things. If you are in love with the Italian language, or the Italian culture and the family atmosphere makes you feel at home, this is the best experience you can do.

    The main thing that you will learn is precisely the Italian language in a fun way. I am sure you will love our food and It will be so beautiful to organise something.
    My family and I love cooking so much, in fact, I'm sure you'll love it so much.

  • Help

    Help

    We need help with our family and our big garden and swimming pool for our activities.
    During your free time, you can take a walk with our dogs on the beach, you can play with them and I'm sure you will have so much fun if you could help us with their care. The total daily help is approximately 5 hours, divided throughout the day. And then, twice a week, after having done the 5 days of work, you can be free for your activities/excursions etc. We agree on free time depending on the activities to be done. When staying with a family, it's natural to say that there will always be something to do at home and plenty of activities available. While we prefer not to plan and calculate every minute of our time, it's important to know that there are always things to do during a normal day. Our workaway friends will be an integral part of the family, so they will not be treated as guests or customers.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    Workaway's program is not a job opportunity, but a unique adventure wherein you'll become an integral part of our family. You'll get to experience our daily routines and habits firsthand. Hence, we expect our volunteers to possess a good understanding of their responsibilities, demonstrate unwavering commitment, and show initiative at all times.
    This experience is not simply a budget-friendly holiday, but a truly extraordinary opportunity for you to immerse yourself in the rich culture of Sicily. It offers a unique chance to fully embrace and understand the nuances of Sicilian traditions, customs, and way of life.

    The train station is conveniently located around 2km away from our house. If you wish to explore other parts of Sicily during your free time, we are more than happy to assist you with your travel plans. We can provide guidance and help you make the most of your adventures.
    Additionally, our house is just a short 100m walk from the beach. You'll have easy access to enjoy the beautiful coastline. Moreover, our pool is situated right next to the beach, offering you a fantastic and refreshing experience. You're bound to love it!
    When it comes to airports in Sicily, there are four options available. However, I would suggest arriving in Palermo. Similarly, if you decide to arrive by train, we'll make sure to pick you up from the train station.
