Well Airbnb have come up with an offer that just might be what you’re looking for!

The accommodation giant is offering to send one person and their three friends to Italy for three months during the European summer to eat and drink to your heart’s content – all expenses paid. 

Are we dreaming? Is this a joke?!

No, you read correctly! Airbnb are doing the promotion to advertise the small, beautiful town of Grottole in Southern Italy. But with only 2,186 residents it’s hardly a go-to destination for tourists – and Airbnb want to change that!

As part of the deal, you’ll learn to live and cook like a true Italian from June to August, taking in everything that Grottole has to offer and immersing yourself in the local culture and cuisine – YUM.

If you score the dream opportunity, you’ll also volunteer for a local non-profit called Wonder Grottole and help revitalize the town’s historical centre.

Then, a month into the trip the four of you will become co-hosts on Airbnb – welcoming guests to their room in a traditional home in the village or in the local community centre and then show them around town.

But it still leaves plenty of time to explore the town – eating, drinking and eating some more, with all the pizza, pasta and local wines you can muster. Sign me up!

To apply for this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, submit an application here before February 17, 2019 at 11:59 pm Central European Time – and don’t forget to clear your calendar!
