Description
Hello I'm Sonya, I live in a beautiful rural area of Lombardy in the north of Italy. It's an undiscovered part of the country in the hills in the province of Pavia, between Milan and Genova. The area is characterised by vineyards, small hilltop villages and castles, giving way to the magnificent Appenine mountain range towards Genova and the coast. There are many places to walk here, whether on country roads or on longer hikes in the mountains. Just half an hour from Pavia, a lovely medieval city, and one hour from Milan and from Genova. The nearest station is about 15 minutes away.
I am originally from Scotland but have lived in Italy for 30 years with my family who are now living in other countries. I am a shiatsu practitioner and teacher, and I also teach English. I am vegetarian and enjoy a simple meditative life, walking in beautiful places, Tai Chi , new and old friends, animals, music, art and film....
I have two pets, Bruno is an adorable old Beagle who sleeps most of the day, and Molly is his best friend, a sweet black cat.
They need warmth and affection in their big old country house. -

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
There are many restaurants offering traditional regional dishes and of course abundant local wines! The nearest town is 5km away with many cafes and popular markets on Wednesdays and Sundays. Visiting small hilltop villages and exploring the beautiful Appenine mountains are the best activities in this magical area.

Aide
I need someone to look after my dog and cat, feed them and keep them company. I will be travelling to Sicily at the end of June so I need someone to be here for 10-14 days(from 20 June to 1 July) to be with Bruno and Molly, to look after the house, keep it clean, water the garden and indoor plants. Experience with looking after animals is important!
Bruno is an old beagle, affectionate and sweet he sleeps most of the day. He gets anxious sometimes when he is left alone although this doesn't mean that he can't be left on his own. It's just a matter of getting to know each other. Molly the cat is Bruno's best friend and she is pretty independent so no issues there. You would have your own bedroom. and bathroom. If you could arrive on the 20th of June I can show you how things work. This could be a workaway for one person or a couple, preferably over 25 years old. It would be best if you had your own transport as the house is 5 km from the nearest town and there is little public transport. The house is an old italian country house and there is a garden where you can relax under the hazlenut trees. If you need a quiet and beautiful place to relax this could be for you!

Autres infos...
There is almost no public transport so it would be best if you have your own transport . Neighbours can give help and advice while I am away. One of my neighbours could drive you to the nearest town if you need to go shopping. It's a very quiet village in Valle Schizzola, surrounded by hills and vineyards.
