Description
We are a group of friends that bought a mountain house. Hidden in the Alps, with fresh air and clear water, it's the place where we want to have good times.
It is a place for anyone who enjoys mountain, good-mood people and spending time together. We are planning to do massive restoration works at the main building, plus some gardening and wood chopping. Details about the tasks are weekly discussed according to priority and workforce.
It's going to be the five of us, plus our friends, plus any workawayers that might want to join, plus animals :) We are not living there all the time but mainly staying during weekends, so we can host just during weekends or specific periods. Max 1 week stay, more it's too hardcore.

Anything related to building, restoration, gardening and mountain activity. IMPORTANT: it's NOT a man-only job, it's for everyone. According to our experience, girls are actually much stronger :) We've been working for almost five years and fun part is yet to come. We firmly believe in the value of exchanging knowledge so travellers are more than welcome to propose any activity or task they like.

Hébergement
Everybody will sleep on the floor with matresses or camping mats. The house is composed by different rooms. The main one, just above the kitchen, is the sleeping room where everyone is staying.
Keep in mind that it is a moutain house. Dry toilet and shower outside, animals, spiders and so on. If you are looking for a comfy and clean place, this might not be the best option.
About food, we will provide everything. The idea is sharing the 100% of time and experience, so we are going to cook together. So breakfast/luch/dinner is included. Let us know if you have any allergy or intollerance to get ready in advance.
Autres infos...
We are in the Alps. There are plenty of routes to go. And Milan is 1,5 hrs by train from the nearest station. There's a lake for sailing and swimming not far away (by car).

Giacomo and the rest of the family were so kind and welcoming! The facilities were better than I expected and the hosts are experienced and helpful if you come underprepared.

My 2 daughters and I had a wonderful week!
Before coming, I was worried about how my 6 and 9 year old daughters would be able to participate in the work. But the hosts were very welcoming and offered missions that suited them. They were very happy to participate.
We helped redo the path and the stairs… read more

Tommy and Giacomo allocated us with clear tasks and I've learnt SO MUCH in just only two weeks!

Thank you very much Giacomo and good luck for the next generation of workawayers :)
Giacomo was a great guitar teacher for me, and i hope to see them all soon.
They have great hospitality and they work really hard to realize their dream.
I loved the time spent at the place.
It's so inspiring to see a group of friend with a career and a normal life, having a project such this one together.
Wintertime in the mountain is beautiful, and despite what I was prepared to, I've never been cold!
I spent there one week and it has been the perfect break I… read more
Despite the bad weather and the particularly isolated location there were a lot of sympathic people participating at the wood camp and everything was well organized with proactive teamwork.
I enjoyed transporting wood by human chain, sliding big trunks down the mountain side and participating at… read more
it was amazing to have you here. Thanks a ton for everything, we wouldn't have made the deck without your help. Seriously (and you know how difficult is for me to stay serious)
You'll be always welcome, so have a nice trip and come back whenever you want.
Ciao ciao

Pier loves you <3
The work is not hard, every day there are different things to do, like building or chopping woods or something like this. You are totally in the nature and this is really relaxing. I hope return there another time!!! :)
