    Description

    Hello all workawayers!
    I’m Icelandic woman in Sicily and I just bought a house in Salemi a small town not so far from Palermo. I’m doing some renovation, painting, a new bathroom, making a new floor for the cellar.
    If you have any skills regarding renovating or you like this kind of help than you are welcome to come and help out.

    I’m a designer and have done some renovation jobs before so I can teach something about that. I’m also a yoga teacher and we can do yoga together in the morning. I love cooking for my guests and we could exchange our knowledge if you are into cooking.
    Salemi has a long history and I live in the old town. There is a castle 1 minute away and museums to visit.
