As the first time to be a workawayer I can say that this expirience was amazing and beyond what I expected.

I had such a great time staying with the friendly and generous family ,Such a large ,warm and loving family with so many happiness to share. Olga, Nunzio, their son Giuseppe, the cats , the dogs and the neighbors (Alice,Elisa and other … read more family members of course!) , they all made me feel very at home. I spent an extremely comfortable days with them.thank you again for everything!

Nunzio has a lot of hobbies, he extremely loves dancing and dances well . He attends dancing class,English class , gym class each week as well . His life after retirement is well organized . I don’t think he is a man with 61 yo,I think he is 16 , because he is always full of energy and curious about the rest world . He has a great passion of learning new things . He is the first man I have ever met who leads the best retired life .
I especially loved to chat with him (in English ),we shared the different culture , our family life , the growth experiences we had and exchanged ideas etc. I once met his nice friends,attended the gym class and the English class with him which brought me great memories . He really made an effort to learn English even his English is excellent. Sometimes I helped Olga and Nunzio do some house work ( not heavy) , mostly we spent time to practice English . Nunzio is an amazing carpenter and there are a lot of outstanding works in his house ( if you have the chance to visit he his amazing workshop , I am sure you will be astonished:) )

Olga is a beautiful lady , kind and caring . I love her very much ,She is an awesome cook as well . I love Italy food because of her ,he can prepare the best meals in the world in a short time . I miss her smile and the tasty meals a lot ! I learnt several Italy words from Olga as well :) ahhh

Giuseppe has an excellent sense of humor,you would never feel bored when you stay with him.he can easily attract your attention when he speaks .

I completely fall to find words to describe how much I love the little sweet girl Alice . I miss her very much and wish her happy everyday :) hugssss

I would never forget the first time I met Nunzio at the railway station in the evening and the last time we say bye at the same railway station in the early morning
I would never forget the first time I met Olga and Giuseppe.I will alway keep the bracelet and the red ladybug you two gave me.
I would never forget the first time I met Alice , her brother and their parents ....of course the other persons I met there
I am so lucky because I met all of you and had a great time with all of you !!!!
I hope we can meet again someday!!!

I thoroughly recommend Nunzio’s family to other workawayers !!!!
