Description
Thank you to everyone who reached out. Fortunately for me this experience has just filled up and so for now, happy discovering and connecting with other work away hosts.
Position already fille - but I leave the post written when for the next time that the position opens again.
Need someone with a quiet but independent spirit, doesn't mind being by yourself for a period of time, enjoys animals. Smart workers who need to work with wi-fi when they travel are welcome! Ideal situation for a month stay.
Home located in the small village of Palazzavelli, Sovicille (20 minutes car or bus ride southwest of Siena in Tuscany).
Two bedrooms, two bathrooms, open space living room and kitchen with a loft workspace, enclosed garden, 3 dogs and two cats.
SPECIFICALLY: NEED DAILY ASSISTANCE WITH THE DOMESTIC ANIMALS
- Take several walks a day with the dogs.
- Let the cats in and out
- Feed the animals twice a day
Local nearby town of Sovicille is a 5-minute walk from the house.
Sovicille has a little of everything:
* pharmacy,
* bank,
* grocery store,
* hardware store,
* coffee bar,
* tabacco/newspaper/gift shop,
* Bus Stop where there are frequent buses to and from the Province Capital: SIENA
Need help with our animals: food, love, water, walks and attention.
This is a great an opportunity for anyone who wants to enjoy a tranquil one-MONTH period of time.
There is wi-fi for those you to work from home.
