  Description

  Hi, would you like to come to Venice for a week or two? I am offering the top floor of my house, a 4-story historical building with amazing views, with private bathroom and 'altana', the typical wooden terrace, overlooking the roofs of Venice, in the Castello district, one of the most popular and lively areas of the city. I welcome someone to do the painting and basic maintenance of the house. The ideal person will have good manual dexterity, be serious and quiet. I can host one person per time. Contact me now!

  - learn Italian by having daily exchanges or full lessons with me (I am an experienced private-lesson italian language teacher)
