  Help

  I need help at home, with maintenance work and the cleaning I never have time to do (cleaning the bookcase, the attic, the garage...)
  Help with daily housework is also ok, as it would be nice to have some conversation in English or French.

  Accommodation

  We live in a fairly large apartment (100 square meters), and it's me and my son. I can host the workawayer in my daughter's room, because she is studying in another city.There is only one bathroom.
  For food, I cook every day. It may happen that sometimes I am not at home, at lunch or dinner, but I will leave the well-stocked fridge

  What else ...

  Brescia, my city, is very old. You can visit the Roman remains, the medieval and Renaissance part. There is a beautiful castle on the hill, near the historic center. It has a lively cultural and social life: there are cinemas, theaters, many venues where they make live music, is rich in social and charity initiatives
  My city is close to many beautiful Italian cities (Milan, Verona, Parma), two hours by train from Venice and Turin, three hours from Florence. It is located on the Milan-Venice railway line and is therefore well connected. Half an hour there are the lakes of Garda and Iseo, and is close to beautiful mountain places (Prealps, Alps ...) What else?
