Description
We are a Kiwi family with 2 dogs and 3 cats.... We moved to Northern Tuscany 14 years ago and are still working on a big refurbishment project. We live on the premises and have all mod cons - just not particularly refined! Our house is 800 metres up in the foothills of the Apennine Mountains with stunning views. We are looking for couples to work with us - need help with heavy duty gardening and some clearing and property maintenance! We also really value carpentry and building skills! Sorry but we can't help those trying to get Italian citizenship .....

Help around the house
General Maintenance
Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We play a mean game of cards if that can be considered cultural :-)
Help
We are thigh-high in our building project and need help with tiling (bathrooms) clearing the rubble, building trades are always welcome - energy and enthusiasm key!!
