Description
Ciao,
I'am Luca, a Sicilian guy from Palermo choosing to leave the city to live/follow/create a more sustaineable life-style in a country house up on a hill. We love to take care of the place and my dream is to set it up for hosting events, workshops, classes of any discipline, practice, etc... To create a space where visitors can grow up both in physical and spiritual side. In this case to share is the key and team work the best instrument to reach our goals.Types of help and learning opportunities
Art ProjectsLanguage practiceHelp with Eco ProjectsGardeningDIY and building projectsHelp around the houseGeneral MaintenanceCultural exchange and learning opportunities
Full big contact with the sicilian cultural environment: way of being, food, history, traditions, etc... Possibility to compare the life style in the country side with that one into the city.
Help
Works in the place can be about any type of things and according to your skills. From woodworking to building with bricks and concrete, or with some electrical systems, hydraulic systems, tools, management of the sources (water collection, wood collection for the warming up of the house). More over: Gardening following permaculture rules to harvest the best food, taking care of the chickens, fruit and olives trees, kombucha and other little natural product productions. Helping for little events, training and practice.
