    Description

    We are a family of three: Andrea, Anna, and our lively 4-year-old daughter. We live in the beautiful mountains above Florence, surrounded by nature in a cozy apartment within a charming farmhouse. Our home features a lovely garden, where we also have a spacious caravan dedicated to our Workawayers, accommodating 1-2 people.

    In addition to our family, we share our lives with a friendly dog and a playful cat, making our home a warm and welcoming space. We love the outdoors, and we’re excited to share our little slice of paradise with those who are eager to experience life in the mountains.

    Join us for an enriching experience filled with nature, laughter, and the joy of community!

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Greetings from our little haven near Florence! We are a multicultural family, with an Italian father and a German mother, living in a cozy stone farmhouse nestled in the mountains and surrounded by beautiful woods.

    We are seeking enthusiastic Workawayers to join our family, primarily to help care for our lively 4-year-old daughter. It would be wonderful if you could speak German with her, nurturing her language skills while engaging in fun activities.

    Living here offers a unique opportunity to connect with our welcoming community, where we often collaborate on various projects. Social activities abound, and you will have the chance to meet our friendly neighbors who are always eager to share their stories and traditions.

    In exchange for your help, we are excited to share our skills and knowledge, from cooking delicious Italian dishes to exploring the beauty of nature around us. We hope to learn about your culture, traditions, and perspectives, enriching our family's experience and fostering a deeper understanding of the world.

    For your comfort, you will have your own spacious caravan in our garden, providing you with privacy and independence. A car would be beneficial for exploring the area, but it’s not a strict requirement.

    Join us for a memorable experience filled with laughter, learning, and cultural exchange!

    Help

    We’re seeking assistance with our daily household tasks, particularly with our 4-year-old daughter. Help with activities like playing, reading, and engaging her in creative projects would be wonderful. Additionally, we could use some support with light outdoor tasks around the garden and the farmhouse, such as gardening, maintenance, or helping with small projects.
    If you have a car out place is perfect.

    If you enjoy being with children and spending time outdoors, we’d love to have you join our family and contribute to our home.b

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    We offer a comfortable and secure space for our Workawayers in a spacious caravan equipped with electricity and heating. Inside, you'll find a cozy double bed and a wardrobe, providing you with all the essentials for a pleasant stay.

    The main house is just a few meters away and is always accessible for bathroom facilities and kitchen use. We encourage a communal approach to meals, where you can either prepare food together with us or cook individually. Additionally, we ask for your assistance in preparing meals for our daughter, ensuring that she enjoys healthy and delicious food.

    We strive to create a welcoming environment where you can feel at home while enjoying your time with our family.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    During your time off, there are plenty of opportunities to explore the stunning natural surroundings and enjoy the tranquility of the mountains. You can hike through the beautiful woods, or simply relax and soak in the peaceful atmosphere.

    If you have a 4x4 vehicle, that would be perfect for navigating our unpaved roads. However, a regular higher car will also work, as there are two different access points to our home. Please note that public transport options are limited right outside our door; the nearest train station and bus stop are in the nearby village.

    We encourage open communication and mutual respect in our household. Feel free to share your ideas and preferences, and we’ll work together to create a harmonious living environment. We look forward to welcoming you into our family!
