    Description

    House-sitting with a dog (and few cats). A lovely spot to experience in a comfy tiny house in the middle of olive trees. The nature here is amazing, the sea just few minutes away (by car - ideally you bring your own one) and the beauty of the region quite unique. Close by we have also a wonderful old town (Scicli) registered at unesco.

    The ‘mission’ includes most of all taking care of my dog Agua (she’s very easy!) for the periods I am not there, and feeding every day a few hens and cats. If you feel like gardening a bit it’s a biiig plus! : )

    Warmest!
    Charlie

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    The place is on the countryside near Scicli, a truly beautiful area. The neighbours children bring much life to the place, and we're lucky here to be surrounded by mostly genuine, simple and adorable people from the countryside.

    Help

    I’d be happy about different type of helps, but when I’m looking for workawayers it’s mostly because I plan to be away and need people enjoying the place by themselves.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    The tiny house is very comfortable, has the basic comfort (hot water) internet, but mostly offers a very nature orientated vibe without being too isolated. The toilet is a compost toilet (but well constructed, clean and attached to the house). It has also a large terrasse to enjoy the external vibes and magic lights.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    I dont follow stict rules, and therefore i think the best is always to let each one bring and share what he/she wants, and let things come as they'll come. On the principle I simply like the idea of sharing this lovely place and offering this original experience in a nature immersed structure in return of some precious help (there’s always smth to do here..).
