Description
Dear Work-Awayers :)
We are a 4 member family, Gemma - Beniamino our 8 year old sun Manfredi and the last one 1 year old Ascanio, who lives in Sannicandro a Bari suburb area which is Apulia capital.
We are looking for a new cultural exchange experience, since we want our kids to be educated with an open mind, tolerant, empathetic and to become great citizens of the world☺️ this is why we think it's great to interact with people from other cultures from all over the world.
We also have 3 beautiful dogs, a 10 year old Pitt bull called Chico and 2 Boston Terrier Priscilla and Pepe (12 and 13 years old). They are really sweet and don't have behavioural issue or any health problem. Since they are part of the family we are looking for somebody who is also a dog lover.
Beniamino and I work in public sector, administrative duties, and during the week we are very busy with our jobs, besides we have to deal with Manfredi’s school homework and noon extra activities and Ascanio’s only a baby who really takes a lot of our time… We live in a very big house, with plenty of space and a private garden. Since it’s very big I’m looking for some one who is helping us with daily tasks such as cleaning, ordering and loundries..
Yuor effort is mostly needed in the morning while we are out at work, around 4/5 hours per day, but we can schedule a different time depending on your needs.
And then we really want you to enjoy your time in Italy doing whatever you feel like doing or if you prefer spending time with our family .
Looking forward to hearing from you!
