You'll have independence in organizing your writing sessions, with regular opportunities to exchange feedback and discuss the manuscript together.
The experience is designed to combine creative collaboration, cultural exchange, and free time to discover the Italian Riviera.
Translate selected sections of an original literary manuscript from Italian into your native language.
Refine grammar, vocabulary, dialogue, and narrative flow.
Preserve the emotional depth, atmosphere, and literary voice of the original.
Discuss creative and stylistic choices with me.
Help maintain consistency in terminology, characters, and narrative tone.
Suggest improvements where the expression feels unnatural or unclear.
Respect, honesty, and clear communication are essential.
Please keep shared spaces tidy and respect the privacy of everyone in the house.
The manuscript must be treated confidentially. Please do not share, publish, distribute.
I appreciate independence, reliability, and a friendly attitude.
Most importantly, I want this to be an enjoyable and mutually enriching cultural exchange.
Note. Before confirming the exchange, I'd love to have a short video call to get to know each other and discuss the manuscript, expectations, and working approach.
I'm particularly interested in finding someone who connects with the creative nature of the project, rather than someone who simply sees translation as a mechanical task.
If you have a passion for words, imagination, and the hidden meanings behind stories, I'd be happy to hear from you!
Many worldpackers have been applying to this position recently. The host will probably not be able to respond to all of the applications, so we recommend that you also apply to other hosts in our community and not just this one :)
