Description
! I prefer to host couples - preferably looking for someone that would like to stay for the whole summer season !
Hi workawayers! I’m Tiziana and I’m the owner of a family-run farm since 2006, located in the National Park of Porto Selvaggio in Salento, Italy.
It is not just a farm but it also offers accommodation, mostly in summer because of the very good weather and the perfect position near the sea but far from the chaos of the touristic cities in the nearby.
Our Casato is the best place to enjoy nature in a relaxing atmosphere, with several activities that involve yoga, mindfullness and well-being.
(I know a very little English but I’m learning so we can manage it, maybe with a little help. This means that I mostly speak Italian).
Being a touristic accommodation, I'm looking for someone that knows how to:
1. Take care of the outdoors (green and pool area),
2. Carpenting-woodworking and general building maintenance
3. Housekeeping of guests' rooms
4. Preparation (baking) and service of the breakfast
Important: I have dogs so be ready to get to know them!Types of help and learning opportunities

Tasks are going to be flexible according to the daily need.Languages

I know very few English but I would like to become able to have small talks with the language. I would be very happy to teach you my mother tongue, Italian!Accommodation

What else ...
Nardò and Gallipoli are the closest cities to my manor, which is obviously located in the countryside. During your free time I can give you a lift to the Nardò train station or to Gallipoli train or bus stations so you can move from there using the public transports or we can decide to hang out together so I can show you some spots of my beloved Salento!

She wants to learn lots of things and she's quite an unstoppable worker!
I loved having her with me as a volunteer for a month and I would love to host her again whenever she will decide to come back here.
We miss you so much, Julia and we love you!
