Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten
I dedicated my life to knowledge, I grabbed it everywhere I could find it.
At the center of this endless exploration of TRUTH, lies the encounter and the dialogue.
I am an extension of you, you are an extension of me.
What is important is to be able to inspire, to empower the Other.
All we need to change the world, it is inspiration.

Unterkunft
Since the house is under renovation, at the moment there is only a double bedroom available with bathroom/ kitchen shared.
The house has two large piemontese roofs in terracotta tiling positioned on either side of a large courtyard. The plan for the future, perhaps this summer, is to repair these roofs. More immediately, there is plumbing work to do on the first floor of the house where I live. When the first floor plumbing has been fixed, you will have your own bathroom : which will be even nicer than mine ! Part of the work could be organising the old agricultural equipment that is in the barn on the opposite side of the courtyard. The barn was once also a house and may return to that purpose in the future.
The first floor where you will stay, has a long south facing veranda with metal work to be repainted. At the end of the veranda,there is an open terrace area which I use for sitting out in the summer and which was used for drying tomatoes,maize (corn) and other produce.
The volunteer's room is on the first floor. To get there, you go up a flight of outdoor steps. The first floor is more modern than the ground floor which is a typical piemontese house with a vaulted ceiling. The house dates from 1850 and was the first to be built in the village.
Besides the maintenance's works in the house, I need skills in video editing and photography editing (CS6, Final cut) for a documentary multimedia project I am working on.
