  Description

  Welcome.
  
  We are a family living by the Adriatic sea, near Barletta, South of Italy.
  The peace here is unparalleled. The city is a 10-minute drive.
  The village gets full of people throwing parties in the summer, and gets very quiet from September on.
  
  I am a 28 year old archaeology graduate, writer, photographer, and mother.
  My son is 2 years old, he loves nature and anything with wheels.
  My boyfriend works in IT remotely and is a fisherman.
  We take care of our garden and we love taking strolls along the seashore everyday.
  
  As I am starting a new project I am looking for someone who can play with my son while I am busy.
  The ideal person would be a mother or a small family with a child who is the same age as our child, so they can play together.
  I also need help with managing my social media page and help around the house.

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  Our holiday house is by the seashore. When the weather allows, you could go swim. We also have an electric guitar, a wood oven, tennis rackets, a bicycle and table games.
  There is always something to do. The internet connection is good.
  We could still drive to Barletta for you to enjoy your free time in the hustle of the city.
  
  There are many activities to relish in Barletta with the right mindset!
  Long strolls along the seashore, a medieval castle, a majestic cathedral, an art gallery, a theatre, two movie theatres, along with many cafes and local cuisine. The train station is in the centre of the city, which makes every new itinerary accessible. The airport of Bari is 50km away and the port of Bari is equally near. I have lived in Greece for around two years, and I would be glad to help if Greece is your next destination.
  
  I am a philosophy and archaeology graduate. I make unguents, various kinds of soap, bread and pizza. And I am a photographer, so we can also arrange a shooting :)
  I am also an Italian teacher, so you can learn the language without even noticing.
  
  My boyfriend is a fisherman and knows everything about the sea. He is also knowledgeable about plumbing and dyi projects.
  
  We will be happy to arrange a trip to the mountains of Basilicata together :)
