    Description

    Hi workawayer! My name is Veronica, I'm 50 yo and I live in an apartment in the suburb of Perugia, the capital of the Umbria region. I have two children: my oldest daughter is 21 and living in Germany, my younger son is 20 and leaving in July for an internship in Malta. From September I will be alone at home and I need someone that will help me with chores around house, in particular in the garden. I'm looking for someone over 30 that enjoys long talks at dinner and loves to share their backgrounds.

    Ciao workawayer! Mi chiamo Veronica, ho 50 anni e vivo in un appartamento nella periferia di Perugia, capoluogo della regione Umbria. Ho due figli: mia figlia maggiore ha 21 anni e vive in Germania, mio figlio minore ha 20 anni e partirà a luglio per uno stage a Malta. Da settembre sarò sola a casa e ho bisogno di qualcuno che mi aiuti nelle faccende domestiche, in particolare in giardino. Cerco qualcuno che abbia più di 30 anni, che abbia voglia di fare lunghe chiacchierate a cena e che ami condividere le proprie esperienze.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    I think this cultural exchange is very beneficial for both parties, since a great physical effort and particular working hours are not required. You can also move around by public transport to reach nearby cities.

    Penso che questo scambio culturale sia molto vantaggioso per entrambe le parti, poiché non è richiesto un grande sforzo fisico e particolari orari di lavoro. Inoltre potrai muoverti con i mezzi pubblici per raggiungere le città vicine.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    During leisure, you can go for walks, ride a bike, visit Perugia, a university city full of clubs and pubs where students meet. A place that we recommend to see are the Marmore Falls, the largest in Italy. During the summer there are various public swimming pools or, if you are a lover of the lake, you can do rowing and sailing.

    Durante il tempo libero puoi fare delle passeggiate, andare in bici, visitare Perugia, città universitaria piena di locali e pub dove si ritrovano gli studenti. Un posto che consigliamo di vedere sono le Cascate delle Marmore, le più grandi d'Italia. Nel periodo estivo ci sono varie piscine pubbliche oppure, se siete amanti del lago, è possibile fare canottaggio e vela.
