    Opportunity in Sardinia – Summer by the Sea!

    Hello! I’m a single mother, and together with my 8-year-old son, Lorenzo, we’ll be spending three months (mid-June to mid-September) at our vacation home in beautiful Sardinia. We’re looking for two Workawayers (a couple or two friends) to help us in the mornings (Monday to Friday, 8:30 AM – 1:00 PM) with childcare, cooking and household chores.

    Our home is surrounded by wild nature, just 20 meters from the beach, but it’s quite isolated—there are no nearby houses or markets. This makes it a perfect place for nature lovers who enjoy swimming, canoeing, and exploring the outdoors. A personal car is essential and required !

    I often host friends, so there may be additional company beyond just our little family. Lorenzo is an active and easy-going boy who speaks a little English and has always gotten along well with babysitters.

    I work remotely for an international pharmaceutical company and spend most of my time in conference calls.

    If you love nature, the sea, and a relaxed summer lifestyle, we’d love to hear from you!

    Why Choose a Workaway in Sardinia?

    SARDINIA!! Do I even need to say more? The island is home to some of the most breathtaking beaches in Italy—just look at the photos! Crystal-clear waters, golden sands, and untouched nature all around.

    In your free time, you’ll have the chance to explore other parts of the island, discovering hidden coves, charming villages, and incredible landscapes.

    A summer in paradise awaits—are you in?

    I’m looking for two Workawayers to help us from 8:30 AM to 1:00 PM, Monday to Friday:
    • One will take care of my 8-year-old son, Lorenzo. Your days with him will be filled with outdoor adventures—playing at the beach, teaching him to swim, or hiking up our hill to enjoy breathtaking 360° views. I value quality time, so no iPads, TV, or phones while you’re with him—just real connection and fun in nature!
    • The other Workawayer will focus on cooking and household chores, helping keep our home cozy and tidy. Tasks include preparing meals, sweeping, vacuuming, mopping, and cleaning the kitchen, bathrooms, bedrooms, living room, and garden.

    If you enjoy an active, nature-filled lifestyle and love the idea of a summer by the sea, we’d love to have you!

    Your Own Cozy Space by the Sea!

    You’ll have your own private house just 200 meters from mine, complete with a bedroom, bathroom, and kitchen for your personal use. The living room and kitchen are shared, but only during breakfast, as I sometimes host friends there.

    You’ll receive €200 per month to buy your own food (50€ per week each of you).

    Enjoy your independence while being just a short walk away from the beach and nature!
