    Description

    Aloha! I am Elisa, an enthusiastic, creative and hardly tired person! I recently moved back into my castle! It’s a magical location: a castle on top of a hill overlooking at the Comino valley.
    I love to show the surroundings of this magical place, or discover together the area! I love cooking, crochet, movies, art in general, chill and talk with a nice wine.
    I’ve hosted some people between last year and this year, and it was just great! I so loved it that I would like to constantly host someone throughout the year!
    There are some quiet days and some with friends coming, and I would love to share both experiences.

  • Help

    Help

    Since it’s a big a never ending project to live in such a place, I would love some help with the wood, construction, garden, some cleaning, and some general maintenance, etc, but nothing really specific.
    Depending on the day, on the person, on the mood, on what there is to do, etc, we can decide together what’s the best for every day, and how to do it. I’m open to any suggestion and I’m willing to learn from anyone!
    I am planning to go back to study so unfortunately I won’t have the same full time to do it all, therefore some help would be greatly appreciated! but I am always available for anything that might come up, and I usually am in the house.

    Accommodation

    Room with bathroom with private entrance. Food will be on me, except when eating outside the house. When eating at home it will be all vegetarian meals.

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    Art or movie nights in the house, sometimes we can go near Rome, or in other towns around together. I have wifi. The house is immersed in nature, and at the same time not too far from Sora, Cassino and Frosinone. It is not very easy to go around with public transportation. I don’t have a spare bike or car you could take, sorry, so if you have your own you would have more freedom to move around. Otherwise it’s easy to go by foot downtown.
    There is a cute add on: Gianna, the castle cat!
