Ciao Workawayers!
We’re Leo (French) and Laura (Italian), a couple living in a sunny, peaceful home nestled in the countryside near Rome, with breathtaking views of Lago di Nemi. After years working in humanitarian missions across the globe—from Canada to South Sudan—we’ve returned to Europe to build something meaningful close to our families and nature.
We’ve recently founded a non-profit association dedicated to hosting people from all walks of life for immersive experiences in nature. Our vision is to create a space where guests/travelers can slow down, reconnect with themselves, and rediscover clarity and joy through introspection, community, and the healing power of the outdoors.
Go check out our website for more details (ask us for the link)
🛠️ Who We’re Looking For
To bring this vision to life, we’re expanding our hosting capacity and need help with several hands-on projects:
- Rearranging our garage
- Assembling a compost toilet
- Gardening
- Cooking
- Maintenance of our chicken house
- Harvesting olive trees
Please clearly mention your skills in your message since we are receiving many requests from workawayers :)
🏡 Life here:
- Languages spoken: French, Italian, and English—perfect for cultural exchange and language practice
- Nature immersion: Forests, lake hikes, and panoramic views right outside your door
- Local charm: We’re just 1 km from Nemi, one of Italy’s most enchanting towns.
- Nemi is located just 30 km away from downtown Rome. There is a train station bringing you to Rome in 35 mins for only 2 euros just 15 mins drive away from our place.
- Amenities: Bikes available, cozy evenings by the fireplace, and shared meals on the terrace with birdsong and lake views
And of course, you’ll meet Wadi, our beloved ginger cat and unofficial mascot (check him out on Instagram - ask us for the link)
🌱 What We Offer in Exchange
- Accommodation
- Food
- A warm, welcoming atmosphere
- Time to relax, reflect, and enjoy nature
- A chance to be part of this inspiring project / community nurtured by us
We’re looking for motivated, kind-hearted, open-minded, and energetic souls who enjoy working with their hands and contributing to a meaningful project. If this resonates with you and you have the right skills, we can’t wait to welcome you.
Cheers,
Leo & Laura
