Descrição
Hello,
We are Francesco and Robert, a gay couple, living in a rural part of central Italy willing to have volunteers helping with various outside duties. You need to be strong,very open minded, self sufficient ( able to cook for yourself) friendly & people orientated. . You need to be house proud, know how to use a broom and self motivated :)
We live in a semi restored farmhouse about 5 km from the historic town of Tolentino between the mountains and the Adriatic coast line.
The many footpaths leading through woods, fields and rivers covering the mountains makes it a pleasure to explore the environment.
Being so submersed in wilderness away from civilization, it very much creates a feeling of retreat or escape from day to day ´normal´ life.
We like living in the countryside and share our way of life with others.
The restored part of the farmhouse has all the comforts of a modern place yet set in beautiful rolling hills landscape.
We enjoy cooking, outdoors sports and socializing with friends.
we have two cats and two lovely dogs.
I enjoy cooking and try different recipes every time !!
N.B. This is only during the autumn/early spring time.
The tasks that we will be doing together may consist of the following....
Olive pruning / picking,( when in season ) gardening, landscaping, manual labour, house renovation, clearing brambles, chopping / cutting firewood, ground clearance and site preparation.
Helping us is very relaxed and informal.
Plenty of good genuine Italian food on offer !
Please note, During the summer period we operate as a B & B, however any workaways who are here during these periods will have no involvement with the B & B activities.
The olive oil that we produce is soley for our personal use and not for commercial reasons or sale.

Algo mais...
What else ...
Places to visit on your time off....
There's an abundace of places to visit, from picturesque hill top medieval towns to lovely unspoiled beaches 25 minutes away by car . The Conero Riviera its only 1 hr away from us, its called the pearl of the Adriatic for its pebble beaches and crystal clear waters and upmarket seaside towns...
The Sibillini mountains are very close too, about 40 minutes away. A fantastic place for long walks, exploring lakes and mountains plateaus which are covered with wild spring flowers from May till July.
The nearest shop is about 20 minutes walk from the house but to reach the nearest town which is 6 km away you would need a car or otherwise we are more than happy to drop you off and pick you up from the town centre etc.
At times one can feel quite isolated up here so it's a great place for anyone interested in meditation or self exploration etc. Or if not, it's simply a great place to enjoy the peace and to explore the nature. Fantastic for walkers.

Deixado pelo Workawayer (Branden) para o anfitrião
I stayed with Robert and Francesco in the summer of 2013. It was my first workaway experience and they were fantastic hosts. Francesco's cooking was amazing and they were just great people to get to know. I would highly suggest staying with these two if you are ever in the region.

Jenny and "Legs" were a great couple to host who fitted in straight away and happily joined in with everything that was going on. They were diligent workers and worked really well as a team.
They will always be welcome to return and we hope to see them again in the spring. Grazie mille Jenny e "Legs" we miss you already !!!!

A huge thank you to Bob and Francesco ( and to many of their friends too!) for a fabulous stay. It was brief but fun and we really wished we could have stayed longer! The work was fun too and the rewards in the terms of our accommodation and food were amazing! This is a busy, social house with some crazy pets and many laughs.... You haven't seen… read more

My first workaway experience, and what a great place to stay.
Never thought I would be so comfortable in a new invoirment, all thanks to two lovely people how take great care of their guests.
I really enjoyed being part of their dailly Italian live.
The only think I can say to them is; Grazie mille mille mille mille

We cannot speak too highly of Job's time with us, he was the perfect workawayer, a very hard worker, a lovely sociable personality, easy to feed and a pleasure to have in our home. He will always be welcome to visit us again. Our grounds have never looked so neat and tidy as when he was with us, thanks so much Job.
Fran and Bob.

It was an absolute pleasure to have Francisco staying with us, he is a wonderful ambassador for Mexico and has changed our views of his country entirely. He was a very willing worker and has helped transform our grounds to a very high standard.
He joined in easily with our social life and our friends and even cooked a traditional Mexican meal… read more

It was my first workaway experience ever and I feel the luckiest workawayer because I got to share this with such kind and wonderful people as Franceso and Bob... I can't thank them enough for have given the opportunity to "work" with them and let me be part of their family, which also includes Findus, Margo and some days also Persi.

Andrew was a perfect workaway guest, totally flexible and happy to eat whatever was put on his plate. He is very sociable and easily mixed in with our friends.
The website he designed and built for us is exactly what we wanted and has since been highly praised by many of our friends.

I spent just over 2 weeks with Bob and Francesco. They were both wonderful hosts. My experience with them felt more like being welcomed into a family than going to a "job". I was invited on at least 4 dinner parties with their friends and Francesco also took me to the beach one day.

Tom was a very pleasant and willing worker who has a nice personality that enabled us to enjoy a good working relationship and a good social interaction. His excellent standard of fluency in the Italian language was an added bonus to his time with us.

I had a wonderful time with Bob and Francesco!
I could not have asked for two more gracious hosts.
My only regret is that the weather prevented me from helping out. more than I did.
I hope to see them again later in the year.

I had a really wonderful week with Francesco and Robert. They were warm and super hospitable hosts and I hope to see them in NZ as soon as they've won the lottery. (Fingers crossed)

Matt is a hardworking flexible guy who settled into our environment as soon as he arrived, he was easy to cater for as he liked everything that we like and was very good company. He entertained us with his violin and would be more than welcome to return again in the future.

Certainly my most luxurious work away experience :D Amazing food, company, house, scenery and of course who could forget about the animals! I enjoyed my time there very much and sincerely hope that I can return there and spend some time with Francesco, Bob and their friends again. Good luck with the rest of the pruning!

Mike was a wonderful introduction to our first ever workaway experience, he was a hard worker, totally flexible and having a personality that allowed us to have an instant rapport, which meant a very enjoyable time for us all. We would not hesitate to welcome him (and his guitar) back to our home.

Workawaying with Francesco and Bob was an absolutely incredible experience, and I can't recommend them as hosts highly enough. As soon as I arrived I was made to feel at home, which wasn't hard considering they have a beautiful house in some of the most picturesque landscape I've ever seen.
