    Dear workawayer!
    We need a person who can speak a quite good Italian on the first basis.
    We are a young, multicultural couple with an amazing baby girl born in september 2021: Elaia is a really calm, sweet and smart girl. She loves when we sing, play music, dance, go out, go the beach, ride, practice Yoga and walk in nature.
    After fews experiences, we understood that our small baby At the moment she is learning how to speak, she needs a person that can understand her needs in Italian language otherwise she gets quite stressed and we don t want this for her...
    Federico and I, both we are italians from Sicily but with different background with strong values and easy-going attitude.
    I ve been living, working and travelling during 5 years abroad between Spain, London, Singapore before coming back to Sicily again with new awareness and consciousness of me so also new understanding of the Island I belong to.
    Yoga helped me to find my way in 2000 when I was living in London.
    I am an experienced Yoga teacher since 2010, I LOVE learn and practice in India and before Covid restrictions I was used to go there and practice yoga for 3 months with different guruji.
    I CAN SPEAK English, Spanish, some French too
    Federico is working in a Farmacy and is also a musician of SudCantica Group (South italian folk music)
    We are young, smart, tidy, very clean and very healthy italian couple pleanty of simple values.
    We live in the smart countryside near the beautifull reserve of Marinello lakes in Oliveri (Messina), in the island of Sicily.
    We had an amazing au pair from Brasil till may 2022 and another from Argentina till december 2022
    At the moment we need some help in marketing, social media, Elaia and the house
    If you are an experienced, trustfull, clean, tidy girl with some Italian skills that wants to help us around those needs you are really welcome. I wish to increase my teaching yoga Classes
    Once x week, I would love to go to Messina where my parents live (Messina is 40 minutes by car via motorway)
    You ll have a really safe place where to live, very near the beach of Marinello where walking, jogging, go to the beach and qnice people and musicians around.
    We also live close to train station for your sightseeing, travels and we ll be happy to help you on discover Sicily when possible.
    We believe you can stay for few months (or less if you cannot) We will offer a nice treat, a cultural exchange, 3 meals for day and a nice accomodation also.
    I speak Italian as mothertongue then very fluent Spanish, English and I can speak also a good level of French.
    I would love to share my languages' competences and some sicilian recipes as I love cooking.
    You can easily speak Spanish and Italian with Elaia cause she is already bilingual (italian and spanish)

    We' re looking forward to meet you on a video call, to talk to you and understand if we will live together soon and enrich our lives!
    See you soon ♡

    Maria Cristina, Federico & Elaia
