Somewhat older people (we are 75 and 68) are also welcome.
For our helper(s) we have a nice room in the attic with bathroom.

Another workaway host cancelled on me in the last minute, so I reached out to Daniel to ask if it was possible to stay with them and I got an answer almost instantly which reassured me a lot about my plans.

Almost three weeks in this beautiful valley and I had an amazing time. Collecting and preparing wood for the heating season gets you back into shape again. Working in the olive grove with a great view is like meditating for me and seeing Lee still being that fit is so inspiring.

Gerda and Daniel are absolutely incredible!! They're very intelligent, both of them read a lot and are well informed about different subjects such as geopolitics, history and health. Besides all these subjects, they also helped me to improve my English, which was something that I was concerned. Their location is beautiful and, although the job is… read more

Jorge stayed several weeks on our farm and we didn t like to see him going.
He does the work as he is asked to, is reliable and an really sympathatic person around you.
In our oliveyard he cut a big lot of grass, tireless!
We recommend him highly and would like to see him again over here whenever he would want to come back.
Ciaosito, Jorge!!

Gerda and Daniel are very hospitable, funny and caring hosts. They are both very cultured and knowledgeable which made for great dinner conversations. Their spot in the midst of the Tuscan hills is stunning. The work involved primarily gardening (bush-wacking, as Daniel would say) and the workload was very fair. Besides, the hours spent relaxing… read more

Amber was only with us for three day as she had other obligations. Still , that was enough time for us to realize that she could make a positive contribution just about anywhere. She has our reccomendation. The work we gave her was physical and not so easy, but she did it without question. She also helped us with computer problems.
