**NOTE FROM WORKAWAY**

** PLEASE CONTACT THIS HOST IN ITALIAN**

Come and join us in our beautiful country area in the hilly part of Emilia Romagna. Since our parents moved here from the South of Italy we fell in love with this area and settled here. We are an Italian couple in their early fifties who live in a beautiful two stores family countryhouse. Our names are Maurizio and Graziella, our only daughter has moved out 2 years ago after she got married so now we live in the upper floor by ourselves while grandma lives downstairs. We do work shifts during the week and have the weekend off . We look after the chickens, ducks,rabbits,turtles, cats and 2 friendly dogs: Miele and Vanity, that we have rescued through the years. Grandma has a big orchard and a big vegetable garden. At times she nees help too.

Italy is known for its culinary variety so if you stay with us you will have the opportunity to treat your palate! We do not speak any foreing language so it will be the perfect spot for a full immersion of Italian!! We also love eating healthy and our own grown veggies/fruit. Grandma loves making handmade pasta so if you like cooking you will enrich yourself with several authentical recipes! Our region is famous for the Parmisan cheese, tortellini, piadina and lasagne! if you love wine here is the homeregion of the famous red wine San Giovese! If you like hiking or biking in our areas there are heaps of tracks that are so panoramic and beautiful!!!

Aide
During this pandemic period please if you are unwell DO NOT COME! Helpers must be neat, clean and helpful in all activities including some house chores ( like sweeping aroung the house or watering plants) Pleasant attitude and sociable...respectful and considerate of the house rules. We work 5 hours each of the 5 days. Sometimes we only work a few hours and we make it up another day, especially if the weather changes...so you must be flexible. Outdoors type of people and those who are fit and have done some physical work and are able to complete tasks quickly are more suitable. Healthy and fit is probably also recommended. We need help in making a new fence for our chickens, ducks and rabbits. Also our garage need a concrete floor. Gardening help with pruning and planting is always needed. In winter we may need help to carry the wood near the house and chopping only some big trunk pieces. Also some artistic tasks like painting or decorating walls and wood are appreciated jobs. Bring some work shoes, work gloves and old clothes as we get a bit dirty.
