    Description

    We are Cora, 37 y/o, my partner Gianfranco 48 y/o and my daughter Maia, 0 y/o. My parents and I bought this country house in 2021 and we have been doing work around the property since then. I usually spend here all the time I have free from my work in Milan, the place is beautifully surrounded by woods and very peaceful. I am a fashion designer doing my own creations, in Milan I teach tailoring and up-cycling in fashion schools. I love to live here (and I would like to relocate here someday), work in the vegetable garden and sew my creations, but it's hard to do it all and I would benefit from some help and company. My partner works from home most of the time and sometimes travels for work. We just recently had our baby girl, she was born in November 2025. I would love to host a girl/woman or a couple, someone who likes to help with the plants, help me around the house (especially now with the baby is complicated to do everything!) and just share some time together. Would you like to join?

    Accommodation

    You can have your room, bathroom may be shared or private, depending if I have other guests or not.

    We will cook together and exchange food at least once a day, if not all meals. I eat everything and I like to cook a bit of everything! Once every few days we will go grocery shopping and decide what to buy, then of course there will be the vegetables from the garden :)

  • What else ...

    What else ...

    The nearest city is Acqui Terme, 20 minutes by car (must reach there for the supermarket). There is a village with the most essential services 5 minutes by car. Public transportation is not very often.
    The most convenient thing if you want to independently visit the city is for you to have your own mean of transportation. If not, you will depend on me for visits to the city or other trips and with the baby I might not be always available to bring you as you please.
