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 or family coming over, 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 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
°°° I NEED HELP IN OCTOBER TO HARVEST OLIVES, PLEASE°°°
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.
At the moment I would need some heavy duty help, like moving forniture, deep cleaning, cutting wood, and moving rocks.
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
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 ...
Art or movie nights in the house, especially during the winter, while during the summer I like going to some of the many festivals in the nearby towns.
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, though. 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)
I recently started to work evening shifts on weekends, but we can easily adjust our schedule to have a smooth routine!
Respect is very important to me, and of course to the environment.
There are few common sense/house rules, easy but important: I expect you guys to take care of the space you are using, so you are in charge of the cleaning of the room (of course whenever you want I can provide cleaning products and tools, as well as clean linen and towels), same for the clean up before you leave, in order to have the room ready for the next Workawayers, clean and tidy as I try my best to have it ready for you ☺️
I always ask about food allergies and preferences before hand (and on an almost daily basis) so food waste is not appreciated. Punctuality is also a form of respect for me, especially since we decide together most of the schedule.
Last but not least: there is also a mascot: Gianna, the castle cat ☺️ -

Amazing people! We will surely meet again!
