Ciao, to all the community,
We are Francesco & Elena, an Italian couple in their 30ths with many years of travels on their shoulders.

Francesco :
I am a sporty and outgoing person.I love exploring and getting out of my comfort zone, which makes me eager to learn. Let's give a brief description about myself. I already have on my shoulder 5+ workaway experiences in the last 3 years. Some of them has been short term and some long term (I ended up staying 8 months in the longest one).
During these experiences i learned how to process firewood (from cutting the tree to the splitting part) , how to work and behave with horses, how to restore and build floors/walls/ceilings , how to take care of farms animals, how to drive a quad/snowmobile/bobcat and got some gardening skills . I'm happy to be around kids as well but i'm not the best choice if you need a nanny :) .

My Professional Experiences:
Professional Chef
managers in a pizza shop (what an Italian stereotype),
worked in IT and telecommunications for 11 years
and owned a restaurant/pub for 3 years.
Handyman, hard worker and outdoor lover

Elena:
Ciao! I'm Elena, an Italian recently back in Europe after seven incredible years in Australia and New Zealand, with some amazing backpacking adventures through Asia. Connecting with new people, sharing stories, and learning something new every day truly makes me happy, especially when it involves genuine laughs, great company, and a beautiful sunset. I find my peace in nature, whether it's by the sea, in the mountains, or the countryside. I'm a very active person and love the outdoors. Beyond nature, I have a deep appreciation for arts and culture. I enjoy exploring art galleries and museums, immersing myself in history, and experiencing the magic of theater and live music. I also find joy in hands-on activities like DIY crafts and gardening, connecting with creativity and the natural world. I'm always up for new experiences and eager to help out wherever I can. Looking forward to meeting some great people and creating unforgettable memories! 😊🌍✨

I and my partner contacted Lisbeth around April. We exchanged various messages and we agreed all to join the crew in July for the paid positions. We stayed in touch in the following months and after a second confirmation we booked the flights and started to organizing our life in order to move there and start this new adventure.

Before everything else, Francesco is such a great, kind, humble, caring and honest person. As a chef, he is professional, responsible and very well organized.
He helped us a lot to structure the kitchen team and improve the menu, with lots of tips and advices on cooking, but also on kitchen management.
Be prepared to be sad after he leaves, … read more

Alex and Jana made me feel welcome by the first moment I've get there and I've spent 10 amazing days in the Art Centre. The house is full of art, artists and great vibes. The time flew by, between a match of ping pong, a kayak morning on the river and sharing meals with the tribe. As a professional chef, my duty has been helping them creating a … read more

It was a pleasure to have Francesco and Catarina in our home, they are an awesome team and very easy to have around, super helpful and very competent with all tasks......Francesco did an awesome job with the gardening and when Caterina was not helping him she always found something to do in the house. Don't be afraid to let them into the … read more

Our staying at Sue and Max was definitely unexpected. We broke down with our Van and on the same day they answered back to our request for help and they welcomed us at their place. We spent two amazing weeks with them doing a few gardening jobs and sharing wine and a lot of stories with them. We will be always grateful for helping us in a moment … read more

We absolutely loved having Caterina and Francesco here. They were very hard working and cooked the most incredible traditional Italian meals for us. They have inspired me to make home made pasta again. Francesco and Caterina were very easy to talk to and shared a similar relaxed and happy vibe to our family. They also shared the same values as us … read more

Staying with Amanda and her family wasn't initially planned, but we decided to give it a go. We had the best 2 "workawayer" weeks we could imagine. Amanda and her family are super easy going and gave us that feeling of serenity that helped us to feel home for 2 weeks. The work is really much self organized and we cooked (since we enjoy to) a lot … read more

Staying at Peter and Ann's has been an amazing experience. The amount of work was perfect balanced between don't get bored and don't work too much. Coming here is a huge opportunity for learning new stuff about anything. On our stay we made coffee from scratch, we made alcohol, we worked with cray fish and we had a chance to taste a lot of … read more

Francesco & Caterina are an amazing young couple who work so well together. They spent time clearing pathways, cutting down trees, making safe the goats pens in time for their kids to arrive. No job was to much trouble, everything was done to such a high standard. They completed lots of smaller tasks as well such as making a board to mount a skull … read more

Staying at Janine has been really amazing. We were supposed to stay there just a week but we decided after a few days to extend. The accommodation is the best you can imagine and she kept bringing us new delicious food. During our stay we did a wide range of different jobs and we had the luxury to decide what to do and when. The farm itself, its … read more

For us it was the first "short" (10 days) workaway experience, but an extremely special one. We were treated as part of the family since the moment we stepped into their lovely house. SO many stories, food, experiences and laughs were shared throughout our stay. We enjoyed every moment. It doesn't feel liked we worked that much but what we did do … read more

What to say other than "thank you"

Holly and Francesco stayed for 10 days at ur house, and from the first moments we liked them a lot. They are very outgoing, fun, friendly, helping couple, and they are smiling most of the time.
Always there for a laugh, always looking where to help.

Holly and Francesco were an absolute joy to have around. Both hard working and driven individuals. Holly will have your kids ship shape before breakfast and will happily chop a tree down afterwards. Awesome.
