    Description

    We are an Italian-Austrian family living in Capena, a small town 30 minutes from Rome.
    The main interest of our family is art: ceramics, mosaics and painting.
    The residence is placed in a big garden with nature, animals and mosaics,
    there’s a fairytale atmosphere.
    We would like to host a workawayer from another country and culture who would take care of Niccolo’, 3 yrs old by teaching him another language and help me in cleaning the house. Alternatevly we may need support at our Ceramic Lab if you are a ceramist or a painter !
    If you love art or you want to learn better contact us! Please contact us if you wish to stay at least 2 full months!

We believe these activities can be very easy if done with affectivity, love and real interest, these are the main characteristics we search !
    2) housekeeping activities
    Daily you’ll find always the support of the mother, often smartworking at home, of the father working in the ceramic laboratory in Capena, of the grandmother , grandfather …and so on.
    3) if I have already found a workawayer supporting us with Niccolò, we may need a second workawayer helping us as ceramist or painter (contact us and we let you know what we need the most at the moment!)
    We would like you to help 5 hours per day. Saturday and Sunday will be free.
