    Description

    Hello! My name is Gabriele, and I am the father of a child called Ernesto, who is 4 years old. We live in Tuscany, 3 km from Lucca, a beautiful medieval city. I am a teacher at a hotel school in the nearby province of Pistoia. The thing I am looking for from the workaway project is above all cultural exchange. But in detail: - I would like to give Ernesto the opportunity to start conversing in English - I would like to have the opportunity to help with housework and gardening Our house is not big, but we can fix a small guest room . The important thing to know is that Ernesto does not live with me every day because I am a separated father, but he visits my home on average 3/4 days a week and regularly stays here for 6 nights a month.

    Ciao! Mi chiamo Gabriele, e sono padre di un bimbo che si chiama Ernesto, che ha 4 anni. Viviamo in Toscana, a 3 km da Lucca, città medievale bellissima.
    Sono un insegnante presso un istituto alberghiero della vicina provincia di Pistoia.
    La cosa che sto cercando dal progetto workaway è soprattutto lo scambio culturale. Ma nel dettaglio:
    - mi piacerebbe dare la possibilità ad Ernesto di cominciare a conversare in inglese
    - mi piacerebbe avere la possibilità di un aiuto nei lavoretti domestici e di giardinaggio
    La nostra casa non è grande, ma una piccola camera per l'ospite la rimediamo.
    La cosa importante da sapere è che Ernesto non vive con me tutti i giorni perchè sono un papà separato, ma frequenta mediamente 3/4 giorni per settimana la mia abitazione e pernotta regolarmente qui per 6 notti al mese.

    Basically: I am looking for a reliable person who speaks English, to be able to start conversing in the language with Ernesto, and to be able to bring us cultural exchange, and, in the moments when Ernesto is not there, help me with small housework and gardening (we have a small garden).

    In sostanza: cerco una persona affidabile che parli inglese, per poter cominciare a conversare in lingua con Ernesto, e per poterci apportare scambio culturale, e, nei momenti in cui Ernesto non c'è mi aiuti nei piccoli lavori domestici e di giardinaggio (abbiamo un piccolo giardino).

    Accommodation

    If we agree, you will have your own room, small but comfortable, with a single bed. It is the room of Ernesto, my son, so the elements are those of a children's room. But when you are our guest Ernesto will sleep in the bed with his father.

    Se ci troveremo d'accordo avrai una tua stanza, piccola, ma confortevole, con letto singolo. E' la stanza di Ernesto, mio figlio, quindi gli elementi sono quelli di una stanza per bambini. Ma nel momento in cui sarai nostro/a ospite Ernesto dormirà nel lettone col suo babbo.
