>>>TRAVELING AT PRESENT . CHECK MY CALENDAR FOR FUTURE NEED IN 2021
I'm taking care from many years of my granny’s house where I live. It’s very big and has big land on the back so, from time to time, I need help. Mostly about cutting branches, weeding, arranging garages and tools, mowing grass, cleaning windows, brooming yard, .... and all the work that must be done in the country.
Nothing difficult but, by experience, I prefer people used to this kind of work and able to work independently. If I spend too much time for explaining or teaching how to do it’s not helpful sorry!
AT PRESENT TRAVELING SO I SUGGEST HAVING A LOOK TO MY CALENDAR FOR
AVAILABILITY.
I CAN OFFER ACCOMODATION and FOOD FOR AROUND ONE WEEK to one wa at a time .
From Asti you can reach Torino, Milano, Genova in half/one hour by train.
i can help you to find timetables online when you're sure to come and tell me from where/when you arrive.
IF YOU ARRIVE AT THE STATION JUST CALL ME AND I pick you BY CAR.
Ours is a large house built by my great-grandmother.
From 1997 year i came back here, the house has changed many inhabitants: at present my sister living next door, Giuseppe the barman of the cafè nearby, neighbours running a didactic farm sharing same yard and my mum living next door. She’s still very active but as well needs help from time to time both in the house and land.
i escape abroad from time to time working in wa me too or visiting friends.
I am a host for many years... trying to select people with good energy,
. I like to show my guests the wonders of our land or to suggest events or concerts (mostly art, poetry and blues)
I prefer working with music: reggae, hip hop, blues, soul, african, funky, ... IF YOU DON'T LIKE CAN BE ANNOYING
-I try to reduce consumption of water and electricity.
- I organized items for swapping. They are available for workawayers as well (clothes, books, bags, tools,..) .
- i have a bike available but we move quite easily in all directions following paths in meadows and woods

Explained above
I’m retired from about a month so my habits are changing a bit.
My plans are to travel more using Workaway or visiting friends.
But at the same time I must take care of the house so I will come back from time to time.
Spending here some weeks and hosting Workawayers.
The idea is to do as much maintenance as possible when I’m here and the help of a workawayer could be precious.
Getting older it’s more difficult for me to do heavy works or cleaning deeply and it takes more time. Moreover working together is fun while working alone is a boring task.
Useful a driving licence .
Welcome awareness, humour, aesthetic and practical sense.
I’m improving my relationships with my neighbours who run the didactic farm, with theStaff of bar/restaurant next door, my sister and with my mother living in front.
Through my example they started understanding Workaway philosophy so workers’ presence is testimonial of its values.
They don't speak much other languages, but sometimes need help, so good relationships with them are important and we can get friendship, food and gratitude in exchange.
I offer to workawayers good food mostly vegetarian.
In the evenings (if we're not too tired) and sometimes in weekends (because i'm a human being and need to stop from time to time ) we could explore together places and events in the surroundings,, listen to music, watch videos, chat, visit friends,...
Sea, mountains and big towns as Torino, Genova, Milano are 1-2 hours away so visits are possible

My son now works abroad and comes home just a few weeks. So his room is available and a private bathroom as well.
the house is 150 sm so privacy is possible. we share the kitchen, a studio with a double couchbed, a terrace.
In autumn i put thermostats low opening windows in the morning to let the sun in.
If you need more warmth , better considering other places.
I eat quite everything . mostly vegetables, pasta, fruit , cereals . I don't like meat but if it comes as present from a friend I accept and share with guests. If you like to drink a glass of red wine, our area has very good ones.
i'm a smoker. but i do only out of the house.
