Description
Me and my wife host people in our Country House on the hills of Center Tuscany.
The place is a single house with garden, vegetable garden, olive fields and graveyard.
We like to share our uses and our food and know traveling people from all over the world.
We also host an official feline colony.
We run a not professional hosting activity from Eastern to October, therefore we can only welcome working travelers from November till March.
We don’t involve travelers with our hosting activities but to help in small maintenance and gardening jobs.

They have been at our places for ten days and have been very useful for overall jobs: gardening, cleaning, painting and small crafting.
They never backed up to any request.
It's nice talking with them and they really love animals.
They also cooked a great french dish for us!
Highly recommended.
