Description
We are a couple living in Le Marche Italy, we moved from London 19 years ago. We are very interested in nature and environmental sustainability. We have 3 dogs and 2 cats. We are vegan/vegetarian.
We hosted workaways for the last two years and we have been really pleased to have help as we prepare the business for the coming year. We want to do the same again in 2024.
We have a very large garden and a big farmhouse to maintain so we are looking for some help ideally from mid March until the end of April. Possibly October and November too.
We offer you your own private apartment so that you can be fully self sufficient if you wish. Obviously we hope that you will also join us at times both at home and when we are out and about enjoying the area which is really beautiful in the spring.
We are ideally looking for a COUPLE OR TWO FRIENDS who can work together on projects/gardening/maintenance/spring cleaning apartments etc
We will give you an allowance during your stay.Types of help and learning opportunities
