The Experience

I met Javier during a long backpacking trip in South America, in a brazilian ecovillage where we were working as volunteers in permaculture and eco-building. 4 months later, I was pregnant and another adventurous chapter of our lives started. We want to know enthusiastic people to exchange energies, stories, and activities. We need help to take care of Manuel, a sweet 11 months baby, so is important to have experience in child care.

My experience in Italy at Giulia's place could not be better! It was PERFECT! She is the most amazing human being I have ever met and Manuel is such a sweet baby. She was very flexible with time and tasks, and I helped her more with babysitting cause that is what I have more experience with. She is an AMAZING cook, and you have to try her hot chocolate if you go in the winter 😉 We spoke English, Portuguese, Spanish and Italian. I had a room all to myself and could also have time alone to work on my projects. Thank you so much for everything! I definitely recommend you staying here!

La cantidad de experiencias y memorias que adquirí en muchos rincones de Roma junto a Giulia, Javier y Mani, la confianza con la que me han abierto las puertas de su hogar como un miembro más de su familia, el cuidado y amor que recibí en cada gesto de amabilidad, protección y cada comida, probablemente sean demasiados para esta corta reseña que hoy debo escribir. Inició como un voluntariado pero terminé con una hermana y amiga, un compa ibagueño y un pequeño sobrino que me gustaría ver crecer. Lo recomiendo, pero no solo por Roma y lo que ofrece. Es una gran experiencia compartir con ellos♥

Mi experiencia con esta familia fue simplemente inolvidable. Compartí un mes con Guilia y Javi son maravillosos, cuidando a su pequeño bebé Mani, quien es un verdadero sol. Desde el primer día me hicieron sentir como en casa: me ayudaron en todo lo que pudieron y siempre estuvieron atentos a que estuviera bien. Más que anfitriones, se convirtieron en familia. Fue una experiencia única, llena de aprendizajes, cariño y momentos especiales que me llevo para siempre. Gracias por abrirme las puertas de su hogar y de su corazón!

Essa foi minha primeira vez voluntariando em uma casa de familia, tinha receio de não me sentir à vontade ou sentir que estava incomodando de alguma forma, mas na verdade me senti muito acolhida. Giulia, Javier e Manuel são pessoas incríveis e com muita luz. Obrigada pelos momentos e por me receberem. Recomendo 100% a experiência!

Giulia es una gran mujer, es muy amable, te hace reír mucho y cocina delicioso El bebé Manuel es muy tranquilo y con levantarlo y caminarlo se siente mejor. Siempre está riendo y ahora aprendiendo a gatear Tuve tiempo para recorrer la ciudad hermosa, camine mucho, Giulia siempre me recomendaba lugares, y tiene mucho conocimiento sobre arquitectura. Con ella puedes hablar de todos los temas, es muy amorosa y comunicativa. Con el padre no fue la misma conexión. La casa esta bien conectada a la parada de bus, para ir a la estación de tren y llegar al centro. Gracias Giulia
