Our experience living with Tiziana and her family for a month was amazing! They are so welcoming, warm and made us feel very much at home. We lived with Tiziana's sister Claudia, who also had such a friendly family. They included us in their daily activities, and we got to know their friends. The work mostly consisted of hanging out with the… read more

I had an amazing time with the family. They made me feel welcome from the start and were very open about how I could participate in the family's life and help around.
The kids were really nice and open to conversations. They are also really independent so I had a lot of free time to explore the nearby mountains.
I would definitely come back to… read more

Tizi and her family were absolutely wonderful - I truly recommend this experience! Even though I could only stay for a short month, they helped me feel right at home since day one. The kids - Andrea, Anna, and Mattia were incredibly mature, respectful, and kind. I only have good things to say about them. Davide (Tizi's husband) always cooked… read more

Overall, we enjoyed our experience with Tizy's family in Bormio in the summer. Tizy is very friendly, as well as her husband, children, and extended family. She and the children speak English well, but the Workawayer knowing some Italian would be helpful. Tizy was mostly responsive to texts and calls. However, she made it clear from the start that… read more it was their "busy season" and she wouldn't be around the house a lot.
We've done multiple Workaways, and a few in Italy, and this one was a mixed bag. As we were the first couple this family had ever hosted (the family had done many individual Workaways before), the room and board situation was interesting. We were provided with a cute, small apartment in the main shopping street, but it was very noisy at night because it was across the street from a nightclub and bars, had no place to hang up laundry, no AC or heat, and no wifi. The no wifi situation was especially difficult as my partner and I both needed our laptops to stay connected to work and had to pay for extra cellular data for the whole month to use our smartphones. We asked the family about this issue, but they didn't feel the need to resolve it. We also only received one to two meals a day, 5 days a week, instead of the typical three meals a day. This was quite frustrating as we didn't always know day-to-day -- for a month -- which meals would be provided. It was made more odd by the fact that the family owns a grocery store a block from their home and had cheap and easy access to food. This put my partner and I in a daily awkward situation of feeling like we had to ask for food when that is the guaranteed arrangement for Workaway. It also resulted in our trip to Italy being more expensive than anticipated due to the extra food, internet, and laundry costs. We extended our stay by one week after some discussion, and the family said they couldn't promise us meals. Instead, Tizy's sister kindly stepped in and cooked us delicious dinners. However, breakfast and lunch were on us. This was a shock to us since we were still working with the children.
The children (teenage boy, girl, and preteen boy) were generally well-behaved, smart in their English studies, social, and very friendly. However, after the first week or two, the children started being no-shows for their scheduled time with us and opted instead to hang out with friends around town. My partner and I understood why since they were on summer break and wanted to hang out with their friends...However, it made us feel useless and at loose ends day after day. We often planned our days around the children's study schedule, and when the children stopped showing up at the house, it was frustrating to hang out at the house alone when we could have made other plans. Whenever we were with the children, though, we highly enjoyed the time talking and exploring with them, especially when walking around town with Mocha, a family dog. The children are very talented and sweet, and we hope to keep in touch!
Bormio and the surrounding area are absolutely stunning and worth visiting. We would be excited to go back and would be glad to catch up with this family again.

I spent just under three months with Tizy, Davide and the kids and I had the most amazing time. From the minute I got there, everyone was so welcoming, including the extended family (aunts, uncles, grandparents and cousins etc) everyone was incredibly friendly.

I had a beautiful time with the family of Tizy. When I arrived I felt welcome in 1 minute. She directly showed me some family members who were present in the shop. Also the kids where really connected from the beginning. The longer I stayed the more at ease I felt. Anna really likes to bake, make things and play outside together. Mattia learned me… read more

My stay with Tiziana and her family was absolutely lovely. Her entire family is so welcoming and Bormio is a great place to be for those who love to get outside or experience Italian life. Transportation is super easy as theres a public bus system in town and busses to neighboring towns almost hourly. The kids were a pleasure to work with and Tizy… read more

For my first workaway expereince I had an unforgettable stay!
