    Description

    Aloha! I am Elisa, an enthusiastic, creative and hardly tired person! I live in 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 started hosting people three years ago and it has been just great! I so loved it that I would like to constantly host someone throughout the year!
    There are some quiet days, in the house, some visiting small towns nearby, and some with friends coming, and I’m happy to share all those moments.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We can explore the beautiful area around together, from nature to small typical Italian small towns. I love to cook, not only Italian style, I can share recipes and ideas; I will happily share my environmental friendly way of living, with recycling, reusing and reducing waste; and of course language exchange

  • 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.
    Now I would need some heavy duty help, with rocks to move and wood cutting and storing.
    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!
    Although I’m always doing something different, I am always available for anything that might come up, and I usually am in the house.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    Room with bathroom with private entrance. Food will be on me, cooked by me, when eating at home, and on each one’s when eating outside the house (like in pizzeria, restaurant, etc) . When eating at home it will be all vegetarian meals (no meat, no fish, no eggs)

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    Art or movie nights in the house, sometimes we can go to 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, so if you have your own you would have more freedom to move around. Otherwise it’s easy to go by foot downtown (approx 20 minutes to go down and half an hour to go back up)
    Respect is very important to me, for the environment, for the few house rules, and through punctuality too.
    There is a cute add on: Gianna, the castle cat and her 4 kittens ☺️
