Beschreibung
I'm Australian and love learning about new cultures. In particular I love Italy; its people, the food, the wine, the countryside, and the food again. I love working outdoors, with my hands, being with animals, meeting new people and sharing fun and warm experiences.

Was könntest du arbeiten?
Regarding my farm experience, I grew up on my parent’s hobby farm where we raised cattle, sheep, and chickens. We also had a large persimmon orchard, which we would maintain and harvest every year. For extra pocket money, I worked on my neighbour’s vineyard, which mainly involved weeding and pruning the vines. I am experienced with general farm maintenance and familiar with many tools and machinery.

Vom Workawayer () für Host (Learn about local culture, ...)

A really special and heart-warming experience awaits here in the beautiful Appenines for anyone with a desire to fully immerse themselves in Italian culture. Nestled within a really scenic part of the Tuscan-Emilian Appenines (about halfway between Bologna and Florence) is a beautiful Italian family who I've had the pleasure of staying with,… read more twice!

From the moment I first stepped through the door, I was warmly welcomed and immediately made to feel like part of this good-natured family. In the two times I've stayed here, I really learnt a lot from this family and made some memories I won't forget - like motorbike riding, making pizzas the traditional way, visiting food festivals on the weekends which turned into techno raves, and so many more. But even just the small things and moments created a feeling that was really memorable, I feel really grateful and inspired after having shared this family's way of life.

The work they need help with is not too difficult or complicated - I mostly did small gardening and maintenance chores in the garden like weeding, pruning and painting a fence. I usually did this in the mornings and had afternoons free. Nothing they asked was too laborious and when the weather was poorly (raining or too hot) they told me to stop - they really care about others wellbeing. I was treated more like a family member than a worker.

Regarding the food - you won't go hungry here! The family are all fabulous chefs who take turns cooking and are happy to teach or share their culinary knowledge. Alessandra taught me how to make many traditional recipes which I will take back to Australia. Meal times (lunch and dinner) are really special here, it's an opportunity to catch up for the family as well as joke around. Every meal (all of which were extremely delicious) included interesting conversations and lots of laughter. Even though the parents, Alessandra and Martino, don't speak a great deal of English other than the basics, they tend to intuitively understand what you're saying and even though a lot of the time I couldn't understand every detail of what they were saying, I could tell what they wanted to say. They have a great sense of humour and even though we spoke different languages, it was easy to share the jokes. Their three kids are quite good at English, however, and are able to translate anything you need help with. Anyone wishing to learn or practice Italian language will also improve a lot here.

I really loved this workaway experience - I have to say it's been one of my favourites. I'm always sad when I leave this family as I miss them all a lot, and hope to see them again one day soon in the future :)

A serene natural experience in the Lombardian Appenines on an exciting project awaits anyone who organises a stay with Martino.

I had such a fun week staying here with other workawayers! Since the eco village is under development, there’s a lot to be done, but also that brings many options for workawayers. The work can be varied, and fit to the… read more

I had such a lovely time staying with Angela and Marcus. The property overlooks Castiglion Fiorentino (which is a short walk away and a lovely Tuscan town) and the surrounding valleys. It’s easy to feel relaxed and an inner peace here. Marcus and Angela immediately make you feel like part of the family. They are such a warm, open minded and kind… read more

It was a real great time together with Nick as a workawayer.
Nick is a very warm hearted, interested and open minded young man with humour and joy in life. We really laughed a lot together. But he also has fun moving things forward and so he supported us in many things on our farm. He worked self-employed and encouraged, but also used his time… read more

This was my first Workaway experience and it couldn’t have been better! Maria is a truly exceptional person who I will miss very much and would love to see again. The house and the cats are gorgeous. I loved every minute of my stay with Maria.

Lucky is the family to have Nick come and stay. He’s very conscientious, understands completely the work needed to be done and the best way to go about it. The work was quite labour intensive, on a hillside, sometimes wet, and he just got on with things. Nick’s good-humoured, sociable, polite, has a great sense of humour and all the things that… read more
