Description
Hi, I'm Alfonsina, an italian business woman and owner of a 33 hectare farm located in the Emilian Apennines, within the Park of "Sassi di Rocca Malatina", in the little paese of Samone - 3KM from Zocca (province of Modena, Emilia-Romagna).
I'm looking for a person who loves nature and animals, wants to improve the italian language, and is willing to help in the habitual work of gardening, cultivation of vegetables and fruits, care of horses and Berto, my donkey (the only types of animals present in the farm other than the family dog).
Ideal for those who love peace and want to experience something different from the usual, in contact with nature, learning the italian language (the only language spoken at the farm).
We are foodies. Here we cook every day with the fresh products from our own horto. You can have tasty italian food every day and learn how to cook the food you eat - I can teach you all the tradicional recipes!
Ideally we want people who can stay for at least 4 weeks to learn the routines which change with the seasons.
I'm sure that you are going to have an amazing experience here.
Everyone that we have hosted over the years have had a chance to take days off to visit Italian cities.
Nearest airport and railway station: Bologna.
Preferably send me email in Italian.
Horse riding is not available in our farm.

Ma avete due problem. Lui ha arrivato con poco vestiti e senza sapone o dentifrici. Abbiamo fornito vestiti per il lavoro. Tante volta che gli veniva chiesto se avesse dei vestiti da lavare la risposta era no. Non so come si è lavato. Quando lui ha partita, il suo camera da letto l'ambiente mal odorante.
Grazie Karin, sei sempre la benvenuta!

Honestly.
I knew no Italian when I arrived and when I left, I knew so much that I can't even remember the English words for certain things.
Alfonsina taught me so much! She is an incredible woman who is so strong and kind. I learned how to make Italian pasta and tarts. I ate the best food of my life. We made… read more
