Description
Our names are Marta and Keith. We have been happily married for 35 years, and have had many opportunities to take care of homes , hobby farms, gardens, small resorts in Canada, Central America and Italy .

We can help you take care of your home, gardens, property and animals: we have loads of experience in these areas but we are also quick learners if you require special tasks we will be glad to follow directions and learn something new.

We are an energetic, flexible, hard working, reliable and giving couple who love to share skills and help out where ever is needed.

Marta has run her B&B, managed a Wellness Center in British Columbia, loves to cook, and keep a home sparkling clean, and has strong administration skills.

Keith is a very talented carpenter and maintenance man with a creative side that allows him to fix many things with years of experience in building and property care.

From October 2022 to April 1, 2023 we will be be travelling to Italy once again (we are both dual citizens, Italian/Canadian) this time wanting to explore Sicily through work away experiences.

Our combined skills make us a very versatile couple. We had lovely experiences with Work away on the Sunshine Coast of B.C for two winters in a row . Winter 2021 -2022 we took care of a small hobby farm, country house in Lazio and enjoyed every minute of it. We have enjoyed picking olives and other outdoor projects in Calabria, Lazio and Tuscany a few winter ago. (We love Italy!!)
We also had wonderful work experiences with other platforms similar to work away.

We can provide references from care taking/ working experiences around the world. We also have a wealth of experience in community development in many Central American countries that we love to share with interested individuals.

Laissé par l'hôte (Help for lemon and olive ...) pour le workawayer (Marta & Keith)

My guests Marta and Keith, arrived at my property in early November 2022 and departed at the end of March 2023. Throughout their stay, they carried out various tasks with unwavering diligence and an unfaltering commitment to excellence.

We spent almost five months taking care of different things on this beautiful property. We worked trimming fruit and olive trees, built a dry stone wall, painted, built structures, took care of day to day upkeep of the two homes and some much more.

Laissé par l'hôte (Help out around a small hobby ...) pour le workawayer (Marta & Keith)

Marta and Keith were very nice and talkative people. They observed the rules and we had an excellent time together. I was very pleased to find out that Keith had experience as a locksmith and fixed our wonky door knob that had been sticking for years. Now it works perfectly. They did a lot of other things for us. Thank you very much. I hope they… read more

Thank you Dave and Lisa. We had a wonderful stay at your place and really enjoyed helping you out with clearing brush, building a chicken run and other home repairs. We learned so much about the Acadian cu.lture and there is so much to explore in your area. Thank you for the food, the chats and the hospitality.

Where to begin....? Wherever I begin, it must start with awesome people! Truly, Marta and Keith couldn't be more ideal as not only workawayers, but also examples of human beings. They were/are lots of fun, very well traveled, both overly experienced at life, and contributed greatly to the wellness spa. Marta cooked yummy food, Keith shared his… read more

Our workaway experience with Courtney has been fantastic. He has lots of projects to be done around his beautiful house and property. He is a very kind person and very patient, explaining how to do things and taking the time to show workawayers how to work if needed but he is also open to suggestions. His house is large and beautiful with stunning… read more
