Description
I am German and living in the Tuscan countryside for more than 30 years. I am running a small ceramic workshop and enjoy simple, nature-connected living. I specifically invite persons who love stay outside and to do a bit of everything that needs to be done in an old farmhouse, on a hectare of land, with a small vegetable garden, with wood for the heating and wood for the wood-fired kiln. There are also always small projects for building something or to do another raised bed in the vegetable garden.......
We will have meals together. I don't eat meat - only sometimes fish - a lot of vegetables,cerals and legumes.
I love to cook and I always appreciate your help in preparing the meals together.
If there is a task in the workshop which can be done by you you are more than welcome to join me.

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
The property is surrounded by nature with no visible neighbours. The area is very beautiful. In your time off there are possibilities for trecking, hiking, biking and sightseeing. There are important Etruscan excavation sites in the vicinity, as well as many cultural events, mainly over the summer. The local mountain, offers the opportunity for rock-climbing. Grosseto (35kms), Siena (50kms) and Florence (100kms) can be reached by train or bus.
Meals will be vegetarian; sometimes there will be some fish or seafood. We will share meals and you are invited to help preparing. I bake bread with sourdough, eat lots of organic food and vegetables and I love to cook for friends. There is a DVD player and often friends come over for cinematic events.
Aide

To check the fence and clear the path going along the fence which means to cut the blackberries, small branches .....
If there is a task in the workshop which can be done by you you are more than welcome to join me.
I am looking for people who like to help with gardening, maintenance mainly outside, sometimes in the house, helping me with cooking.....
I am also looking for people who are willing to stay for more than a month.
I can host only 1 person!
At the moment there are tasks like raking leaves, weeding and clearing in the garden, taking off ivy from the trees....

Thank you for coming to my home. You made my first workaway experience a great one!
It was a short, very intensive week. With your green thumb you did great benefit for the vegetable garden. Fixing the wooden outdoor seats - on the to-do list for a long time - you did a great job. I appreciated your company in this difficult period.

I was lucky to be contacted by Anna just at the time when another host had cancelled. Due to other commitments, I was only able to stay for one week. But what a lovely first Workaway experience it was – for both of us! Anna met me at the Grosseto train station and during the ride home I gained an impression of the beautiful Tuscan… read more
