  Description

  ​Olive Harvest Season:
  Right now, it’s olive harvest time on our land! We are looking for energetic volunteers to join us in picking olives and working outdoors. It's hard work, but a very rewarding and authentic Italian countryside experience!
  We don't sell any of our production, It Is Just done for family and Friends.
  
  Ciao! We are a family of three living in a spacious countryside house in beautiful Sicily. My husband, our cheerful 2-year-old daughter, and I love welcoming guests to our place. We also share our building with my brother-in-law and sister-in-law, so we operate very much as a warm, close-knit family community. From time to time, they might also need a helping hand with some tasks, making this a true group living experience!
  ​We are looking for open-minded, proactive, and versatile all-rounders who would love to become a part of our daily life, share good times with us, and help us maintain and enjoy our lovely home and land.

  What's this?
• 

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  We do not provide all daily meals, so volunteers will need to prepare most of their own food. However, we love sharing time and food together! We are very happy to share meals with you on some working days or invite you over for delicious home-cooked dinners whenever I have time to cook.

  Because countryside life is dynamic, we need people who are flexible and enjoy a variety of activities:
  ​House Maintenance & DIY: Helping us tidy up, organize, do general housework, and tackle light maintenance or renovation projects around the property.
  ​Countryside & Land: Helping out outdoors with garden projects, land maintenance, and general chores across our grounds.

  We can host up to 5 people at a time.
  ​Living Area: You will stay in a dedicated independent apartment inside the main building, complete with your own private kitchen and private bathroom.
  ​A note on the apartment: At the moment, the apartment needs a bit of organizing and tidying up. Getting it set up, cleaned, and organized is actually part of the first Workaway tasks! You will have the freedom to arrange and adapt the space to make it comfortable and feel like home for your stay.
