Description
Me and Francesco are 35 yo and work basically remote in a contryhouse 1,15 h away from Turin.
We started this rural life in June 2025, and it's all quite new for us! The place is secluded but at the same time easily reachable by car, has a vegetable garden and some fruit trees. We also have a warehouse, a cellar and a well. The area is known for hiking, mountain biking, biking and climbing.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We can share our cooking skills,
I love cooking and practicing yoga and pilates, Francesco is a freelance illustrator and passionate climber. Here you can go hiking, mountain biking, biking, climbing, swimming in refreshing rivers. There are also many local butchers and cheese makers in the area.
Projects involving children
This project could involve children. For more information see our guidelines and tips here.
Help
The main projects you might join are:
- make a new vegetable garden (we would like to move the actual one)
- build a pergola (above the dining table outside so we can have some shade thanks to plants and ditch umbrellas). If you have any experience in that is definitely a plus!
- build a wood-fired over (again, if you have some knowledge to share about it would be great)
- set up water tanks (we already have them, we just need to figure out where to place them)
- build an external kitchen (we already have the plumbing, just need masonry and tiles)
- build the composter
- build a greenhouse
We are looking forward to learn something from you about and to craft everything together!

Accommodation
We have 1 BEDROOM with a queen-size bed at the ground floor. The ATTIC is also equipped with 2 rooms 3 single-beds and another queen size one. Bring your own bedsheets and towles if you can - if not, we can provide you with something.
You can also sleep in your VAN (if you have one); we think TENT is not the best option (because of the conformation of the land) - but of course if you like we can try and figure it out too!
The use of bathroom and kitchen will be shared.
We will be more than glad to share breakfast, lunch and dinner with the workawayers!
What else ...
Please, keep in mind that the nearest village (with shops, pharmacy etc) is 15 minutes by car, 1,5 by walk, and there is NO PUBLIC TRANSPORT SERVICE.
We DON'T have WIFI connection; there is telephone signal, but it is not always optimal (however, I still manage to work 8h per day!).
We don't have many house rules (except for NO SMOKING INSIDE the house): we just love proactivity and respect!
