    Description

    Hi there, we're Katja & Michele & V**, a German-Italian family with a lovely dog. We live in the middle of the alps, in a small village, having a big garden and hiking trails starting right beyond the yard. We are looking for some helping hands with our garden, especially in spring and autum. We change your help with additional days in one of the best alpine spots for trekking, alpinism, mountainbiking, climbing and canyoning.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    In our bilingual family, you have the opportunity to learn or improve your Italian or German. Having lived in both countries for extended periods, we can tell you a lot about the differences and similarities between the two cultures. We primarily cook Italian food, so we can give you an insight into Italian cuisine.

    We'd be happy to go on hikes or excursions together to the most beautiful places in the area. Look forward to crystal-clear rivers, green meadows, and turquoise mountain lakes. Enjoy breathtaking views and the highest mountains in Europe.

    We are looking for some help in the garden, like cutting the grass or the hedge. Some little craftworks around the house and garden and maybe some creative play with our daughter, if you like to.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    You will have your own room with a bed/sofa (with a proper mattress) and a desk. A private bathroom with a shower is also available in the basement. You can use the shared spaces, such as the living room, dining room, and kitchen, just like we do. The large garden with a hammock and other garden furniture is also available for everyone to use.

    Since food and cooking are very important to us, we would like to have main meals together, which we would enjoy preparing together.
