We are a group of friends that bought a mountain house. Hidden in the Alps, with fresh air and clear water, it's the place where we want to have good times.
It is a place for anyone who enjoys mountain, good-mood people and spending time together. We are planning to do massive restoration works at the main building, plus some gardening and wood chopping. Details about the tasks are weekly discussed according to priority and manpower.
It's going to be the five of us, plus our friends, plus any workawayers that might want to join, plus animals :) We are not living there all the time but mainly staying during weekends, so we can host just during weekends or specific periods. Every now and then there might be someone staying for longer so drop a message anyway. We say max 1 week stay, more it's too hardcore.

You will deal with real works, according to what you know and what you want to learn. All of us has done international experiences, so the integration will be frictonless. Obviously we expect travellers to be motivated to work, learn and stay
Anything related to building, restoration, gardening and mountain activity. IMPORTANT: it's NOT a man-only job, it's for everyone. According to our experience, girls are actually much stronger :) We've been working for almost two years and fun part is yet to come. We firmly believe in the value of exchanging knowledge so travellers are more than welcome to propose any activity or task they like.

Everybody will sleep on the floor with matresses or camping mats. The house is composed by different rooms. The main one, just above the kitchen, is the sleeping room where everyone is staying.
Keep in mind that it is a moutain house. Dry toilet, shower outside, animals, spiders and so on. If you are looking for a comfy and clean place, this might not be the best option.
About food, we will provide everything. The idea is sharing the 100% of time and experience, so we are going to cook for everyone is there, for our friends and for the volunteers. So breakfast/luch/dinner is included. Let us know if you have any allergy or intollerance to get ready in advance.
We are in the Alps. There are plenty of routes to go. And Milan is 1,5 hrs by train from the nearest station. There's a lake for sailing and swimming not far away (by car).
