  Description

  Hello! I live on a beautiful old farmhouse property near Cortona, Tuscany. It’s a peaceful, remote spot surrounded by olive trees, rolling hills, and the sounds of nature — a truly special place if you love the countryside.
  
  I’m looking for someone to lend a hand around the property with general outdoor work — things like:
  • Splitting and stacking firewood
  • Repairing and maintaining fences
  • Some light building or maintenance tasks
  • Occasional gardening or tidy-up jobs
  
  The work is hands-on and quite physical, so it would suit someone fit, strong, and practical — someone who enjoys working outdoors, keeping busy, and seeing the results of their effort at the end of the day.
  
  In return, you’ll have your own private double room and bathroom, and I’ll provide all your meals (and plenty of good food — we eat well here!).
  
  Life here is relaxed and friendly. Evenings often end with a glass of wine on the terrace, a home-cooked meal, and views that never get old.
  
  📍 Where: About 20 minutes from Cortona, Tuscany (it’s rural — a car helps but isn’t essential if you’re comfortable in the countryside)
  🛏 Accommodation: Private double room with ensuite bathroom
  🍝 Meals: All meals provided
  💪 Tasks: Firewood, fencing, outdoor maintenance, occasional gardening
  🌞 Ideal for: A practical, fit person who enjoys the outdoors and the simple beauty of rural Italian life
  
  If you love nature, peace, good food, and a bit of hard work in exchange for an authentic Tuscan experience, I’d love to hear from you.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  This is a wonderful opportunity to experience authentic rural Tuscany. You’ll learn about Italian country life, seasonal food, and how traditional farm work fits into daily living here.
  
  You’ll also have time to explore Cortona and nearby villages, discover local traditions, and enjoy a slower, more peaceful rhythm of life. I love cooking and sharing meals, so there’s always a cultural exchange around the table — food, stories, language, and laughter.

  Aide

  I’m looking for someone to help with general outdoor and farm maintenance on our beautiful rustic property near Cortona. The work is mostly hands-on — splitting and stacking firewood, repairing fences, tidying paths, and helping with light building or maintenance projects.
  
  The days are physical but rewarding, and I always make sure there’s good food, plenty of coffee, and a relaxed, friendly atmosphere. You’ll be part of daily life on a peaceful Tuscan farm, surrounded by olive trees and rolling hills.

  You’ll have your own private double bedroom and bathroom in the main farmhouse. It’s comfortable, quiet, and has lovely countryside views. All meals are provided, and we usually share dinner together in the evenings — a mix of Italian and home-cooked rustic food, often enjoyed outside when the weather’s nice.
