Description
We live on a wonderful island near Napoli, Ischia. It is a quiet volcano where ancient greek started to produce wine about 3-000 years ago. The view from our vineyard is wonderful, you can see the sun setting over the Pontine Islands and the entire Lazio coast. There are four of us in the family, a municipal employee, a lawyer, and two girls high school students. We spend all our free time dreaming of reviving the ancient vineyard. Would you joint us?

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
We are very friendly, you will become part of our family, with our problems and dreams. If you want, you will be involved in everything as a member of the family. We will work, go fishing, go trekking and work again. We really like the idea of hosting people who come from different countries because it is like traveling while staying at home and we love traveling a lot but we have chosen this hobby that keeps us on the island.
Help
We have the habit of planting vegetables between the vines, for our own consumption. But this, in addition to keeping the vineyard clean, takes a lot of time. And then there are the small maintenance jobs, the fences to paint, the irrigation systems to fix. We do everything, but having a hand is nicer, chatting while working likes working lighter .

It is always good to practice english. We are not good speaker, at least, not everybody, but we can use our hands to explain better ;-) We can also speak a little spanish.
Accommodation
It is a whole house, with your private bathroom, bedroom, kitchen...all for you.
For breakfast you will eat quite always alone because you will have your own house, I'll buy for you coffè, milk and biscuitts. For lunch and dinner, we could eat tooghether. When it will not be possible for any reason, I will pay things that you would cook or you can use vegetables and fruit of our farm.
What else ...
Ischia needs several time to be visited. It's a place fool of history, of wonderful view point, of nature, there are beaches with hot thermal springs where you can swim even in the middle of winter. Every Thursday the area near the port of Forio (the village where we live) becomes an open-air disco.
