    Descripción

    We are an italian family, we live in Toscana, in an old farmhouse near the woods, in the countryside among the hills between Livorno and Pisa.
    Many turists come all over the year to visit Tuscany.
    The sea is close, as well as towns of historical and artistic significance, like Firenze, Lucca or Pisa, that you could be interested to visit.
    I work as a teacher in a primary school, and my husband Roberto works as a surveyor in Livorno.
    After working we like to spend time having walks and meeting friends.
    Roberto attends an art school, to learn engraving and etching techniques, and he likes to make art projects.
    I am engaged in the local administration, being part of the equal opportunities commission. I like music: play transverse flute, I started studying it last year.
    Both our daughters, aged 21 and 18, learned languages: Linda speaks French, and Claudia German. Both also studied Spanish. Linda is attending her third year studying political sciences at Pisa University, but she is currently spending 6 months in Spain for an Erasmus program. Claudia is in her last high school year. Last school year she attended a school trimester in Germany, and she is very interested in keeping trained her German language.
    All of us love reading, and at home we have got lots of books, that need to be kept cleen. We often ask workawayers for help to dust books. Many books are stored in the attics, under roof. In spring we could need help also with the garden maintenance. We have planned to reorganize a room next month, maybe we could need some help for it.
    We enjoy welcoming workawayers, of course to get a help, but also because each time we get opportunities to learn many interesting things and stories. We like to share convivial occasions.
    We usually prefer local and healthy food, and if you are vegetarian, vegan or suffer allergies, we can provide meals that can be good for you.

    In our opinion spending time with workawayers is a very motivating way to practice languages! I can speak french, spanish and some german, but for job reasons I am particularly interested in practicing english. Roberto feels more involved when someone speaking some italian or spanish comes, because he can interact a little more: we all will be happy to listen to your stories! Anyway the girls or I can help to translate.

    You will sleep in a room that will be left just for you. During the day we could need to enter the room to get something stored there, but we will be respectful of your privacy. You'll be expected to make your bed everyday, to keep clean and not to eat upstairs. Thank you!
    A good Wifi connection is provided.
    We appreciate workawayers to share our family life.

    We live in an old farmhouse, where two other families live.
    From our house to town it is possible to use the public transport, but it is very important to know that there are many few buses during the day. Having a car is the best option to move to town: we can manage to take you and pick you up according with our working hours.
    For example we can take you to the train station in Livorno, and from there you can get trains to Pisa (15 minutes), Lucca (40 minutes) and Florence (1 hour); also visiting Livorno can be a nice experience. The seafront of Livorno is amazing, you can also have a walk in the central market and in the town center.
    Sometimes, when we have free time we will be pleased to go along with you!
