    hi! we are a dynamic and easygoing family, we love traveling, getting to know new lifestyles and sharing our skills and experiences: we become richer through relationships, enjoying the small things.

  • Description

    Hi we are Alessandra and Flavio, an openminded, handy and easygoing couple from Italy.
    We consider ouselves as part of the whole universe, our aim is to leave the world better as we found it, and in the meanwhile to experience the most from the world around us, and from the people we meet. We are used to make unconventional choices, i.e. we left with our camping-car in November 2019, to travel around Europe and Morocco for several months. We were prepared to work on board as digital nomads, as well as to do travel-schooling to our kids, but the pandemic situation forced us to change our basic plans, and to stay 5 months in lockdown in Morocco. We learnt so much from this experience, that since then, we strive to find new situations in which we can give our contribution, while we get to learn new people, different lifestyles, and possibly improve ourselves.
    In 2021 we had a fantastic Workaway experience in France, Auvergne, at Chateau de Luc, where we helped with the renovation and general maintenance, as well as electrical and plumbing repairs, window and door maintenance, gardening, and various other practical tasks.
    Now that the kids have grown up, and go traveling theirselves, we would enjoy continue sharing experiences with likeminded people. We can travel and be selfsufficient in our Camping-car or find different accomodation solutions, depending on the hosts availability.
