Description
We have tried to make our home as eco-sustainable, off-grid and quiet as possible. We are in the heart of Salento, in the south of Puglia, about 25 minutes from Gallipoli, 30 minutes from Otranto, 40 minutes from Leuca and 30 minutes from Lecce. We are a couple, Stefania and Alessandro and we are hosts on workaway to seek help in carrying on our little house with maintenance and gardening projects. We offer a small, very intimate wooden house with a dry bathroom and an outdoor kitchen in a very quiet garden where you can relax and enjoy wonderful sunsets. The tiny house is private, all for you. Outdoor dry bathroom and outdoor kitchen maybe shared with other workawayers. In your free time, you can visit the wonderful coasts of Salento for a regenerating swim in the sea.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
The house is in the countryside, in a very quiet and secluded area. You'll have the opportunity to relax, rest, read books, and practice your DIY skills.

Help
The help we need is simple home and garden maintenance. Gardening, decorating, vegetable garden maintenance, painting interior or exterior walls or fences. Depending on the time of year, experimentation with cuttings, pruning, and gathering wild herbs.
In other times of the year we seek help as "housesitting" someone to care for our home and our two cats. -
