  Description

  Hey :)
  
  We are looking for friendly and motivated travelers who would like to join us in a cozy beach house in beautiful Calabria. The house has a rustic–industrial charm, lots of open space, a big communal kitchen and a small garden surrounding the property. At the moment, two rescued street dogs live here - sometimes more join us temporarily , so being comfortable with animals is important.
  
  I‘m mostly spending my time in Frankfurt, Germany where I am a passionate restaurant owner.
  The rest of the time I enjoy exploring new countries & cultures.
  I love cooking, music, motorsports, yoga & arts. When traveling I enjoy diving, surfing & skiing.
  I like to get in natural touch with open-minded people, seeking true experiences: this is why I chose to travel the world backpacking or with my camper & became a host in my both home countries: Italy & Germany

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  First of all, being arround me means you’re being exposed to lots of good music, jokes and homemade food ;-)
  As I grew up in two countries and even though in Frankfurt that is a very multicultural city, I consider my self as a openminded and reflected person. I lived in four different countries and worked in lots of different fields so that I have knowledge and expertise in things.

  Aide

  We are currently looking for help with several small DIY and renovation projects. Nothing too technical, but basic handyman skills are very welcome. Tasks may include:
  Applying lime plaster to some walls in the basement
  Freshening up parts of the exterior walls
  Supporting with small repairs and improvements in the house
  Helping to beautify the garden
  Assisting with building a small pavilion or creative outdoor spacesuit
  
  If you have an artistic soul, we’d be especially happy! Painting outdoor walls, adding creative touches, or bringing new colors and ideas into the house would be wonderful.
  
  We also welcome travelers who can share something special:
  Guitar or drumming lessons 🎸🥁
  Spanish lessons
  Dog training skills, as our rescued dogs benefit a lot from gentle guidance and structure
  Experience or interest in van conversion projects - especially with solar panels is a plus!
  
  What we offer:
  A private room
  A shared bathroom
  Breakfast + one daily meal included
  A warm, open atmosphere with space for creativity, exchange, and slow living
  
  Work schedule:
  ~4 hours per day, 4–5 days a week
  
  Ideal stay:
  At least 2 weeks, up to 1 month (flexible depending on vibe and availability).
  We’re open-minded, creative, and always excited to meet new people with fresh ideas. If you love hands-on projects, artistic expression, dogs, or simply want to enjoy the Calabrian seaside while contributing your skills, we would love to hear from you.
  Feel free to reach out with any ideas or questions - we’re open to all types of exchanges and offers.
  Looking forward to welcoming you to our little beachside project 🌊✨

  Hébergement

  It’s a house near the beach in Calabrian, Italy. You will have your own guest room, including their own bathroom. I would love to cook dinner in the evening or heave some kitchen parties together. I love making healthy breakfasts including pancakes, porridges and all kind of fruits.

  Mes animaux

  

  Arielle (5 mois)

  Arielle is a sweet little girl with a big personality. She’s gentle, affectionate, and loves to play.
  
  Sometimes her enthusiasm gets the better of her, so she can be a little clumsy or rough without meaning to. 😅
  
  She is definitely the watchdog of the family—always the first to notice when someone arrives and eager to let everyone know.
  Despite her protective spirit, Arielle is loving, loyal, and happiest when she’s close to her people 🐾🤍

  

  Spirit (1 an)

  Spirit is our young foal with a huge personality. He’s incredibly people-oriented, cheeky, and always curious about what you’re doing.
  
  Sometimes we joke that he thinks he’s a dog rather than a horse! 😅🐴
  
  He loves attention, follows people around, and enjoys exploring everything with confidence. Spirit is growing up in a natural herd environment, and every day with him is full of fun, surprises, and laughter 🤭

  

  Sahira (2 ans)

  Sahira is a young mare with a gentle heart and a curious mind.
  She’s still growing, learning, and discovering the world with confidence.
  
  Every day we work on trust, groundwork, and building a respectful partnership. Sahira is kind, intelligent, and loves quiet, patient interactions.
  
  Spending time with Sahira is a beautiful opportunity to experience the journey of a young horse and to learn how trust is built step by step 🐴🤍

  

  Zoula (7 mois)

  Zoula is our curious little puppy, full of life, clumsy charm, and pure joy.
  
  He’s playful, affectionate, and currently discovering the world one paw at a time. Jackson loves cuddles, short play sessions, and lots of naps in between. Like all puppies, he’s learning every day and brings laughter and warmth wherever he goes.
  
  Living with Zoula means patience, smiles, and a lot of puppy love. 🐾✨

  

  Negroni (2 ans)

  Nero is a former street dog with a big heart and a calm, protective presence.
  
  He’s strong and alert, yet incredibly gentle with people he trusts. Nero loves being around the house and garden, enjoys walks, and is very loyal once he bonds with you. He’s not aggressive at all — just watchful and grounded, like a true guardian.
  
  Living with Nero means sharing your days with a soulful, grateful dog who has chosen humans again. 🐾

  

  Loui (7 ans)

  Loui is a Vizsla–Labrador mix with the soul of a best friend.
  
  He’s affectionate, gentle, and loves human company — always happy to be nearby, whether you’re working, relaxing, or cooking together. Loui is playful without being wild, very social, and gets along well with people and other dogs.
  
  He’s the kind of dog who brings lightness into the house and makes you feel instantly welcome. 🐶✨
