  Description

  Hello 👋🏼
  We’re a couple in our late 20’s living in the countryside of Ladispoli, a seaside town 30 km from Rome.
  
  ABOUT US
  One of us is Italian and the other is Mexican 🇮🇹🇲🇽
  We’re very open and friendly and our intention is to make you feel at home and offer you to experience Italian life here in an authentic way, as a local ✨

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  We are Italian and Mexican, so you will get a chance to get in touch with two different cultures at once.
  
  🍝 We’ll share the recipes of typical dishes and we'll give you suggestions about the true gems of our region to visit and any tips you might need. You can learn about countryside life in Italy and Italian culture. At weekends we can spend time together, and we can help you plan some interesting activities (visits to museums/monuments, archeological sites, medieval villages, trekking, etc). If we get the chance we might even be your “Cicerone” (informal guide) in the region.
  
  We’re happy to share our languages and cultures and we’d love to learn about yours as well. We’d like it if you could teach us some words and some recipes of your cuisine and we’ll definitely ask about suggestions of places to visit in your country! 🌎
  We’re interested in connecting with people from different cultures yet we are totally happy to host you also if you share one of ours (i.e. if you’re Mexican or Italian).

  Aide

  We ask for practical help around the house and in the fields 🌾
  Tasks can go from farm help (collecting vegetables or fruits), to fixing little things around the house, cleaning, gardening, and other projects that might come up during your stay, depending on the period. We can talk about it better once we get in touch✨
  
  We will join you as often as possible but you’ll be mainly doing tasks by yourselves. We accept more than one volunteer though, so it’s possible you’ll be sharing the tasks with someone else 👥
  
  We ask for 25 hours of help per week, ideally 5 hours per day 5 days per week
  🔃
  In exchange, you’ll have a whole apartment just for you volunteers, plus food for your meals (that you’ll have to cook for yourself).
  You’ll need to take care of other types of food/special dietary requirements, personal hygiene items (shampoo, body gel, etc.) and laundry detergent.
  
  The first 2 days of your stay are for both of us to try the experience, if that works out minimum stay is 2 weeks. Maximum stay is 1 month, but we might be open to longer stays.
  
  🌼 Note that this is a countryside environment, so you’ll be in touch with nature, soil and animals/insects. If you’re not comfortable with it we understand it but we ask you not to apply. You’ll find yourself with dirty hands at the end of the day, yet you will get to experience the real Italian countryside life and enjoy a quiet and relaxing environment, all being just outside of the nice town of Ladispoli and at 30 minutes from the eternal city of Rome.

  Hébergement

  ABOUT THE HOUSE
  🏡 We live in a countryside villa with two apartments. One of these is the volunteers house: Workawayers will share the bedroom as well as the other rooms of the apartment.
  Please note it’s an old Italian house so don’t expect perfect architecture or new/modern appliances, for example no air conditioning nor dishwasher.
  
  The volunteer house has a kitchen and dining room, a bedroom and a bathroom with shower. The kitchen is small and very humble but fully furnished with pans, silverware, plates, etc.
  There is a washing machine (you’ll be in charge of your own detergent).
  
  You’ll find a friendly and familiar environment where you can feel at ease and comfortable. As long as you bring good vibes, are willing and are respectful of the place you’ll be calling home for a while, you’ll be more than welcome in our home and family 🤍
  
  We don’t have big restrictions, you can come and go from the house as you please, cook whatever you prefer, spend your free time as you want ☮️
  We only have a few basic rules: no smoke nor drugs in the house and don’t bring any strangers in without asking us. If you respect these basic rules and use normal good sense (don’t break the law, don’t intentionally destroy anything in the house, etc.) it will be a pleasure to host you!
  Please note that in case any of these things happened we’d be forced to ask you to leave without advance notice 💔

  ABOUT THE TOWN
  The town of Ladispoli offers all the essential services and more. You’ll be able to go to the sea, shopping, eat amazing food and great gelatos. We are sorrounded by important archeological and natural sites and we’re in a really strategic position, since it takes about half an hour or less by car to basically any kind of activity: lakes, waterfalls, parks, archeological sites, museums, night clubs, you name it ✨
  
  Ladispoli is 5 to 7 minutes away by car, and Rome about 30/40 minutes away (might take more depending on where you need to go, traffic, etc).
  If you don’t have a car, you can get to Ladispoli by bus (the bus stop is right in front of our house) and be at the centre of the town in about 20 minutes.
  Remember we’re in the countryside so bus timetables go from 6am to 7pm, and it passes every hour or two (except for Saturdays and Sundays).
  We have a car and go to Ladispoli often, sometimes even twice per day so you’ll be able to get a lift to or from the town.
  
  Please note that there are no shops near the house, so you do need to go to town for groceries and other needs. On the other hand, we have three restaurants at walking distance from our house: a good pizzeria, an “agriturismo” (typical restaurant with local products grown right here in the fields) and a steakhouse.
  
  From Ladispoli you can take the train to Rome, which takes 30 to 50 minutes (depending on which stop you need). The bus that passes in front of the house leaves you right in Ladispoli train station.
  
  It is also possible to get to Ladispoli by bike or by foot. We don’t suggest it because it’s quite a long way and some countryside streets can be dangerous since they’re not meant for bikers or pedestrians, but we can talk about it when you get here and maybe find you a bike to use.
  
  ⬇️
  In conclusion..
  If you read our description we want to thank you for your attention and we ask you to please write at the head of your message the word “welcome”.
  
  In your message you can tell us about you, your interests and skills, what you expect from this experience, and why you think we could be a good match.
  Also, our goal is to be as transparent and clear as possible, in order for everyone to feel comfortable when choosing to come here, so just ask any questions or information you might need.
  
  We are looking forward to hear from you and get to know you!
  Grazie e a presto,
  Miri & Luis
