  What else ...

  We are positive and open-minded people, We had some workaway experiences last year in Finland and Estonia with our kids and we were so enthusiastic that 5 years ago we decided to host ourselves to share the beauty of our Tuscany and exchange experiences . We had a very nice experience with a workawayer that she came back even last year.
  
  In the surroundings you can see Florence, Siena, Volterra, San Gimignano, Certaldo, Greve in Chianti, horse-ride, nearby, go to the beautiful seaside, attend cooking classes, and much more!
  
  We are in open countryside, so consider that you will live everyday life, but we can always agree on free days, you can come and explore the Region with us or use the public Transportation to visit Florence and Siena. Public Transportation is 7 km from our house.
