Descripción
We are Elena, Giovanni and have a 11 years old daughter Yi Lan. We live in a beautiful countryhouse, built in the 1600s that we renovated 23 years ago, located at the foot of Monferrato, in Capriglio, 45 minutes from Turin. We have three outdoor cats and four sheeps.
The home is big and comfortable, with the bedrooms on the second floor, kitchen, living room and library on the main floor. There is a big garden and a small vegetable garden. In front of the house, in the old stable, there is a pottery studio.
We are looking for people who are seriously interested in sharing family life and that help us both in routine home and garden help (like setting the table, helping to cook, and speaking English or Franch ). Occasionally there will be some more help that we will need help with on the property.

Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje
Our country and its surroundings have the highest concentration of Romanesque parish churches in northern Italy. I will be happy to teach you everything I know in the kitchen. If you wish, I will teach you about pottery, modeling, and wheel throwing. This for me is a small extra exchange compared to the workaway one, so in exchange I will ask you for some additional work for the tidying up of the studio.
Many of our neighbors and friends have interesting activities such as organic farming and cultural associations.

Ayuda
We would like assistance with daily house activities, such as washing dishes, helping with cooking, watering plants, helping tidy up games before dinner, and the opportunity to speak English or French. ... We would all like to practice English and Yi Lan is also interested in French and would like to learn some Chinese.
There are also some more demanding jobs scheduled for this spring and summer, such as finishing tidying up the porch, creating the music room in the attic and reorganizing the ceramics studio. On some weekends we will finish the projects that takes the longest to do. For this reason, if you agree, we will ask you to help more hours at the weekend, but then you will have the whole week free. With this new series of studies and his sporting commitments, Yi Lan spends less and less time at home during the week and I work part time from Monday to Wednesday, so the days we would like more your help are from Thursday to Sunday. however, family organization is never so rigid and plans can change from week to week depending on the situation.
