Farmhouse stay in the Etruscan fields of Vetralla, Italy

  Description

  Hi, I’m Konstantyn, a 31-year-old who has recently returned to my family’s farm after spending several years abroad bartending. While I still bartend in the evenings in the nearby town of Viterbo, I’ve decided to reconnect with the farm and work on making the garden nice, a strong vegetable patch and working on making some new fermented products.
  
  I’m looking for people who would like to join me on the farm to help take care of the garden and assist with starting our vegetable patch (don’t worry, you won’t be doing it alone). You can expect about 4 hours of work a day, five days a week. We have some friendly pets that need a bit of attention, overall it’s more about establishing a daily routine, and having a good attitude towards life in the countryside.
  
  Cooking is a big part of life here, and I’m excited to have people who love to cook. We’ll definitely be preparing lots of food together, and possibly holding some communal lunches that bring everyone together.
  
  At the Farmhouse we will be spending half the time together while the other half will be left up to you, as I work in the evenings. So you should be a person or couple that doesn't mind spending some time by yourself in the countryside, I find its a very good time to read books, work on some personal project that you've been keeping for yourself or just taking a break from what you normally have going on.
  
  It is best if you have a form of transport, otherwise spending long periods in the countryside can feel a bit constraining, and the area around should really be explored.

  Help

  - Gardening: We’re in the process of starting a new vegetable patch, and I could use some help with planting, watering, and general upkeep. You don’t need to be an expert—just willing to learn.
  
  
  - Pet Care: We have some friendly dogs and cats that love attention. Helping with feeding, playing, and just keeping them company would be part of your routine.
  
  -Cooking and Communal Meals: Food is a big part of life here. I’d love for us to cook together, share recipes, and enjoy meals as a group. There might be days when we host bigger lunches with friends and neighbors, where everyone pitches in to create a feast.
  
  -General Maintenance: There are always small tasks that need doing around the farm—nothing too strenuous, but things like tidying up the garden, helping with light repairs, or organizing communal spaces.

  Accommodation

  At the Farmhouse, we offer BnB stays (a total of four apartments), you will be staying in one of these apartments, which includes a private room, toilet and office.
  - There will be BnB guests staying at the house but they live independently, consider yourself as a guest staying at the house alongside them.
  
  The farmhouse is divided over two floors:
  
  Ground Floor: This is the public area where you’ll find shared toilets and communal spaces for gathering and relaxation.
  
  First Floor: The first floor is where the host resides, along with two other guest rooms available for our BnB visitors.
  
  Second Floor: You will be staying on the second floor, which offers a private room and toilet, as well as a shared kitchen. To ensure you have some personal space, the kitchen will be private for you during breakfast.

  What else ...

  - I’m a bartender, so I typically work in the evenings and return home later at night (don’t worry, I’m pretty quiet!). This means that some evenings, you’ll have the space to yourself to relax, cook, or do whatever you like.
  
  - We are about an hour away from Rome, so if you feel like going into the city there is the train station which is about 10 minutes away.
  
  -It is best if you have your own form of transport
