    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!

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    - learn Italian by having daily exchanges with me (I am an experienced private-lesson italian language teacher)
    - be immersed in the Venetian culture from the beautiful neighborhood of Castello, minutes away from San Marco
    - I have been living in Venice for decades and can walk you around some precious areas of the city as well as museums and churches. You could view parts of the city that are not in the main spotlight but equally charming and fascinating.
