  Description

  Welcome to Ukiah! My home is a large, beautiful Italian-style house surrounded by vineyards and nestled in the redwood forests of Mendocino County. I’m currently working on an exciting project — reviving the ancient Roman tradition of Sapa (grape syrup) — and while I stay busy with this, I’m looking for some extra help around the house.
  
  What I’m Looking For
  
  The main things I need support with are:
  
  House help: keeping things tidy and organized.
  
  Meal prep & kitchen help: nothing too demanding, just simple meals.
  
  General organizing: assisting with small tasks so I can stay focused on my work.
  
  
  Anything extra you’d like to share — gardening, cooking, art, language skills, music, or other talents — would also be welcomed and appreciated, but the basics above are the main needs.
  
  What You’ll Get
  
  Your own huge private bedroom
  
  Your own private full bathroom with shower
  
  Space in a giant Italian-style home with high ceilings and beautiful surroundings
  
  Time off to explore the redwoods, vineyards, Mendocino coast, and nearby wine country
  
  
  Extra Notes
  
  I’d love to host someone who speaks multiple languages — I’m hoping to travel more in the future, and language exchange would be a wonderful bonus.
  
  This is a unique opportunity to live in a stunning location, experience life among vineyards and redwoods, and help in a relaxed, welcoming household.

  Cultural Exchange and Learning Opportunities
  
  Staying here offers a chance to experience life in Northern California’s wine country and redwood forests, surrounded by vineyards, nature, and a relaxed pace of life. You’ll get a unique perspective on both traditional food culture and modern entrepreneurship.
  
  Some things you can learn or share while here:
  
  Ancient traditions: I’m working on reviving Sapa, an ancient Roman grape syrup, so you’ll get insight into historic food preservation and winemaking traditions.
  
  Languages & cultural exchange: I’d love to practice or learn new languages with you. In return, I can share knowledge about California culture, food, and local history.
  
  Business & creativity: If you’re interested in entrepreneurship, food production, or small business, you’ll see firsthand how a new project is being developed and can exchange ideas.
  
  Local knowledge: I can share the best of the redwoods, Mendocino coast, and wine country, from foraging and hiking to food and art.
  
  
  This is a place for relaxed exchange, meaningful conversations, and learning from each other’s experiences.
