  Descrição

  We are a couple, architect and designer, founders of a residence for artists in the beautiful Chianti hills. Looking for enthusiastic helpers, preferably for a minimum of four weeks. Longer stays welcomed.
  We look for people willing to help in our artistic work and with willingness and energy to do manual work.
  You may also make art and create if you feel like inspired !
  
  We live in a historical big building and as any old house there is always some general maintenance needed.
  The house is in an incredible position with amazing views; Vineyards and olive groves interspersed with farmhouses, turreted castles and fortresses and ancient hamlets: this is the typical Chianti landscape, possibly the best-known of all of Tuscany.
  Greve in Chianti is far 5 minutes by car, 20 minutes walking; Florence is far an hour by bus.
  
  We have a big lovely dog, so you’d have to be ok with big dogs, also we have a cat and birds, so you have to not have any kind of allergies.
  If you have any food restrictions or allergies this is probably not the best place to be.
  
  We are looking for a responsible, open, mature and dynamic person, willing to be part of the family but independent at the same time and enough flexible to perform different tasks according to our needs.
  
  Drivers licence is a must.
  Speaking English and willing to learn Italian.
  IMPORTANT: As a measure of safety please make sure you have valid health insurance in case of an unlikely injury or sickness.
  You will be using tools so you must be able to understand instructions , your safety is important to us.

  Ajuda

  The job can vary from help in cleaning, taking care of and renovating the house, help in sorting out the clutter, electric and hidraulic work, gardening.
  In the winter time also collect firewood and transport it to the flats on the first floors; So, you have to be autonomous and not be afraid to do physical work.
  The old building constantly is in need of maintenance, like painting, sometimes restoring things that are broken.Of course we will give you instructions.
  
  Helping with artists in residence. Also this help can vary.
  You may be asked to help artists in their needs, to move stands, and to set up space for their presentations, preparation arrival kits, housing assistance, etc.
  And we may also need help cleaning the accommodation. You don't need to be an expert but we do ask for things to be cleaned properly.
  This will be an incredible experience in contact with various artists coming from different countries.
  
  Work will be a maximum of 5 hours a day (probably less, depends on what we have to do), 5 days a week. You can choose when you want to have your days off.
  I don't think we will be doing the same job everyday.. We will see together what can be done.
  We are flexible, but we ask our workawayers to respect the exchange and working .
  No special experience is needed, but you need to be positive, effective and emphatic, and your physical condition has to be good.
