Beschreibung
Hello there! We need help with our new house in Manziana, we're next to the forest so plenty of outdoor stuff to do. There's a bit of land and lots of projects to start so having an extra pair of hands always helps. I grew up in Rome, I'm Irish Italian, while my partner is Scottish Irish.
We've had a few workawayers and they helped with gardening (planting stuff, weeding, watering, cutting grass etc), building stuff, woodwork, cleaning etc. -

Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten
I am happy to teach some DIY and gardening (I am not great, but we could learn stuff together by doing and checking youtube videos) , music, whatever.
I am happy to teach Italian or English as well as introducing you to teaching if you want to help me out with my students
I also run the International Comedy Show where I host and produce weekly stand-up comedy shows in Rome; if you want you could help with organising that or even perform at our open mics.
I also play the accordion and the guitar and I am happy to teach those too -
Arbeit
We've been to this new country house for 12 months now and the house is actually pretty ready but it still needs some final touches. The land needs lots of work, from cutting grass, planting trees, sorting out the shed etc.
There's other long term projects that I'd like to start, like getting goats, chickens, installing solar panels. Lots of things to do and learn. -

Hazel was an outstanding workawayer, she carried out tasks with passion and with little supervision. When we left Italy she took care of the place , picked us up at the airport with our car (great driver!), left the house spotless and our plants thriving. She's also fun to be around, she's everything you need in a workawayer.

I stayed at Erik's place for two weeks and he was super kind and accommodating! At first I was helping him out with the garden and other odd jobs, then he was trusting enough to ask me to house sit for a week.
