Description
We are a family of 4 persons: my husband, my daughter, her boyfriend and me.
Gavorrano (Gosseto), a village 15 minutes far from the beach, where we live. We also have two dogs, Golden Retriever called Pinabausch and Cabiria and 4 cats.
Our house is composed by five bedrooms, three bathrooms, three kitchens and a garden.We need help in the house and in our vegetable garden.
I make cheese, drinks and fermented food, I love to cook and show the old traditions of Maremma.
We are looking for a person who have experience in gardening (better qualified).
We'll do our best to make you feel good and we'll give you the opportunity to visit Italy (Rome, Florence, Siena, Pisa, Lucca..) by bus or by train.
