The Experience
Ciao, io ho 62 anni e abito con la mia mamma di 92 anni. Lei è molto cara, lenta e curiosa di conoscere persone da tutto il mondo. Lei parla inglese ed italiano, ha studiato pedagogia, ama viaggiare e assieme andiamo spesso in India dove io seguo dei progetti sociali per famiglie, donne, bambini e artigiani che vivono in villaggi ed aree rurali. Una mano per le pulizie casa, in giardino e cucina è molto gradita. Abbiamo spesso ospiti di Airbnb.

Chandra foi super legal comigo e sua mãe é uma fofa! As tarefas eram super tranquilas e eu tinha espaço e tempo para descansar e fazer meu trabalho remoto. Ela também me mostrou um pouco da Toscana, me ensinou palavras em italiano e praticou comigo e além disso tem um projeto muito bonito pra ajudar uma familia na India. Grazie mille, a casa!

Esta experiencia ha sido muy valiosa para mi, me encontré con dos mujeres solidarias, atentas, divertidas, que me han recibido en su hogar como una más de la familia. Siempre estaré agradecida. Ellas han sido pacientes conmigo por el idioma, he mejorado mi italiano. Me han llevado a conocer lugares en Florencia. Las tareas y el horario de las mismas siempre fue respetado y acordado. Recomiendo esta experiencia para sumergirse en la real Italia :)
