  -Setting the tables (breakfast, lunch and dinner);
  -Once or twice days a week we may organize events in the evening such as cinema, theatre, music, and theme nights, so we would need help with the organization of the events: setting the tables, helping with the decoration, serving the food and putting everything back in place after the event.
  -helping with the organic vegetable garden, and organizing the Cascina.
