Portofino
Ochre façades packed above the boats, clear water right up to the quay.
Italy
A 3- to 6-month internship, terms set by each house, between Lake Como and the Amalfi coast. You live la dolce vita from within, and we take care of the rest.
Why Italy
Elegance in the original version.
Hospitality the Italian way
Historic houses where the craft is handed down like a family recipe. You learn from the people who wrote its rules.
Beauty as a daily habit
Lakeside villas on the morning shift, the streets of Florence at the weekend. The whole country feels like an open-air museum.
La dolce vita, for real
An espresso at the counter, a trattoria in the evening, a stroll at sunset. Here the art of living is a habit.
Teams from everywhere
Italian sings in the kitchen, English runs the service. You improve in both without even noticing.
Not to be missed
Your days off have plans of their own.
The Amalfi coast
Villages suspended between sky and sea, best explored one Sunday at a time.
Florence and Venice
Weekends of art and narrow streets, from the Duomo to the canals.
The best window
April to October
The weather
The lakes in spring, the coast until harvest time.
The crowds
Summer livens the coast, spring keeps the lakes to itself.
