Description

Buongiorno!

We are Hélène and Nicolas, a French couple who have been living in Berlin for many years. We decided to take two months to travel around Italy, as we dream of creating our own B&B/Campersite one day. This journey is a wonderful opportunity for us to gain hands-on experience and to immerse ourselves in the richness of Italian culture.

A little about us:

- We’re newly married and excited to take on new adventures together.

- We’re both passionate about traveling, cooking, and discovering new things.

- We’re experienced in homekeeping, house sitting, and garden maintenance, and have also managed short-term rentals back home in Berlin.

- We love taking care of animals — we have plenty of experience with dogs, cats, fishes :) — and we love looking after plants, with a genuine sensitivity to nature.

- We’re organized, responsible, and respectful of the spaces we care for.

- We speak English fluently, as well as German, Spanish, and un po’ di italiano, which we’re eager to improve!

We’re excited to contribute, learn, and make meaningful connections during this journey.

Don’t hesitate to reach out if you’d like to know more about us!

More details about your skills

Between the two of us, we bring a mix of practical and creative skills. Nicolas is very hands-on, enjoys fixing and building things, and isn’t afraid of physical work such as gardening, DIY projects, or general maintenance. I (Hélène) love cooking, organizing, and creating a welcoming atmosphere, and I’m also experienced in hosting and coordinating. Together, we’ve managed short-term rentals in Berlin, which gave us a good understanding of hospitality, cleanliness, and guest satisfaction.

We are both adaptable, quick learners, and genuinely enjoy teamwork as well as working independently when needed. We’re also curious to learn more about farming, sustainable living, and the everyday life of running a B&B or campersite.
