Hello there! We need help for our farm and stables in the lovely pine forest of Castelfusano, Rome. The bus stop is 2 km away, while the light metro station is 4 km away, giving you a good chance to explore the city during your free time.

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
We are in the Roman pine forest of Castel Fusano, and you'll have a chance to stay close to the city (the light metro station is 4km away, and with 1.5 euro you can get to the centre in 35 min) and be in a lovely natural setting, while learning something about horses and farming.
I am Irish Italian (Irish mother, Italian father) and a qualified language teacher, so I can help with your English or Italian.
I may not be around much these days, so your host will mostly be Guenda, the friendly lady that owns the horses.
Aide
The morning routine involves feeding and cleaning the horses and it takes approximately 2 hours. After that we usually find something else that needs to be done.
You don't need to be experienced with horses, as there is not much horse riding going on.

Laissé par l'hôte pour le workawayer (Lisa)
Liza was a great workawayer, reliable, friendly and independent. She took care of our horses, kept the farm clean, fed the other animals and was always on time and didn't need much guidance. She is also a pleasure to be with and she got along very well with the other workawayers . Thanks!!

The three weeks that I spent on the farm in May were absolutely a pleasure.
Guenda is such a humble person you can learn a lot from. She is just lovely and generous and really doesn`t ask much work. At times, I even felt it`s too little :) Also, it is easy to make her happy (we cooked for her and her husband Marco and had a very nice chatty… read more

I spent amazing two months on the farm working with Guenda and the others workawayers. I have no words to describe how much I was happy during this time.
The job is very easy and peaceful and took around 2 hours per day helping to feed and clean the horses. A part of that you can try to help with other things, for example, permaculture as I did.… read more

It was a pleasure hosting Elizabeth for a couple of months or so, as she was extremely useful with the horses and various daily tasks. She is hard working, eager to help and learn new stuff. She also helped me with some of my students, who enjoyed having her as a "supply teacher", while I could take care of some other stuff. Thanks a lot !

Grazie Mille to Erik and Guenda. I stayed for six weeks, and had a fantastic time. I stayed in a comfortable little cabin with another workawayer, where the owner of the horses (Guenda) comes every morning and afternoon.

Amy and Leah stayed at our farm for a month or so and we couldn't ask for better workawayers. They are extremely tidy and organized, and carried out the tasks exactly as we asked. They were also independent when they needed to be, and were a pleasure to be with. We had great laughs together and were great help at the farm.

Berna was one of our first workawayers and we were more than happy to have him for a whole month (we were actually trying to convince him to stay more :) ). He gave 100% and, after a couple of days, didn't need any supervision, and treated the place as it was his. His English improved a lot and by the end of his experience he was making funny… read more

I only came home this morning after three weeks spent in the farm and I am writing my feedback primarily to travel in time and feel as if I never left. I do not know in which proportion my positive experience is conditioned by Italy itself (its climate, its fantastically beautiful sky, the warmth of the sun during the day - everything I missed so… read more

We really, really enjoyed the days on this nice and calm place with amazing people.

The work was very relaxed and mostly during the morning, so that we had much time left to discover Rome and the seaside. We had a lot of fun with… read more

I enjoyed my stay to a great extent! The work was very calming and easygoing, and I usually finished around 11-12 o'clock. After that I was free to do whatever I wanted, and used much of my time in the city of Rome, easily accessable with the train. Also, the animals are lovely, Lupa and Totti - the dogs, Drago, Urgot, Castel and Pony - the… read more

Gioia's name isn't there for no reason: she is a very positive person, full of Joy (Gioia in Italian) and it was a pleasure having her here in Rome. She was also always eager to help, and I really appreciated her input. She is very smart and learned quickly and with ease, and was able to help me also with organizational aspect.
Thank you so much!
