Description
Hello! We are a lively and friendly family of three; myself (Carola), Rodolfo and Ruggero almost 8 year-old son. We live in Palau where we run a small boat tour company that visits the surrounding archipelago. We visit beaches such as Spargi, Budelli and Santamaria. Our guests are encouraged to swim and we provide snorkelling equipment. Our company is called Natour Sardinia, feel free to check it out!
Palau is a lovely small town in the north of Sardinia which boasts great gelato, pizza and stunning beaches, one of them only three minutes away from our house.
We would like an open-minded and flexible person who is willing to be part of our family and share with us her own experience and knowledge.Types of help and learning opportunities

Help
We need someone nice with kids and flexible! We need help to prepare the aperitivo that we serve our guests onboard the boat. It consists of salami, local cheese, bread, olives, fruit and vegetables. We would love to find someone who has experience in food preparation, however, it is not necessary as we can teach you. We will need support as well with our little one Ruggero who is not almost 8 years old. Ruggero is an independent boy but we prefer him to stay with an adult who can go with him to the beach, to the park or out for some adventures...
You will have your own bedroom, kitchen and bathroom which is located a few steps away from our home and from the sea and the downtown.
We ask that you help us out 6 days a week however the preparation itself should only take a few hours at the most. As we normally run one tour in the morning and one in the afternoon the work will not be all at once but rather an hour in the morning and a few in the afternoon with a long break around midday. You will be asked to clean the containers that have been used but it is not demanding as you will have your own dishwasher.
We would love someone who is friendly, dynamic and easy-going as we may have last-minute bookings, so it is necessary that you are available to prepare an unforeseen aperitivo.Languages

During your free time there are lot of nice places to visit and interesting activieties to do like diving, kitesurking, wind surfing, trekking or simply getting a tan in one of the nearby paradisiacal beaches. In Palau there are two international music festivals ( Isole che parlano and Lanterne) at night you can have a walk for the street market or you just sit and enjoy an aperitivo in one of the many bars in town. You do not need a car to move around as we live in the center of town.
