Activities & Shift
Looking for help with housekeeping of the houses, gardening, swimming pools, and animal care (three donkeys). Also we sometimes host dinners for our guest, so you can help with that (and eat very good traditional tuscan food!).
The Workawayer will be required to help 5 hours per day, 5 times a week (25 hr), in exchange of housing (private room) and food. We are looking for people from now, and someone who can stay at least one month or more. If you have other passions or talents that could be shared with our guests (yoga lessons, different forms of art, music, etc) they are very welcome!
Rules
We provide a either a private room or shared with another volunteer of the same gender (depending on the period of the year) with shared bathroom with the other volunteers, common kitchen and board in a small private house, right next to all the other villas and field where you'll be working. The food will sometimes be cooked by other staff, but the rest of the time we will provide the food to cook for yourself. We also host dinners sometimes for our guests, so then you'll eat very good traditional tuscan food! It would be better if you had your own transport, as there's no public transport to get here (although we would obviously go pick you up when you arrive, and could sometimes give you a ride to Camaiore, the nearest town, but that would be upon availability).
