  Description

  Hi, I live in Rome since I was born. I live here with my daughter Lara (17), son Martin (15) and our dog Tosca, a half-sized young crossbreed in a spacious villa with a garden; just a few minutes walk from the "metro A" to the city center and the airport shuttle bus. The bright guest attic is semi-independent and has its own bedroom with tv & wifi, private toilet with shower and sun terrace: it is available for 1 person. We are well connected and located close to the Vatican City, busses & tube, parks, bars, supermarkets, restaurants, shops, pharmacy, hospital, etc.
  Our loved dog is well behaved, balanced and a bit fearful, she needs to get to know her dog-sitter in order to trust him/her.
  Unfortunately we are allergic to cats, but used to active cultural and language exchanges such as daily friendly interaction, respect for privacy and different food habits or diets. I would like to host a positive, empathetic and proactive guest expecting from you to share little household tasks (keep your space clean!), gardening and sometimes cooking, dog & house sitting while we are out.
  If you want to share our particular company, we are used to join guest's kind presence being helpful and inclusive ;-)
