Description
Hello everyone, I'm Manuela and I'm fortunate to have been born in a place blessed by God: a true paradise on earth! It's a small plot of land cultivated as a vegetable garden overlooking the splendid sea of Maratea, along the Tyrrhenian coast of Basilicata. Nestled between the woods and the cliffs, it's surrounded by nature and silence.
In the past, both my grandfather and my father dedicated themselves passionately to caring for this space. However, now my brother and I, being occupied with other work activities, need someone to help us tend the garden and clean and organize the surrounding area.
Our goal is to continue the work of years and keep this magical place alive and active. In the future, we hope to host travelers who enjoy direct contact with nature, offering activities such as yoga and meditation.Types of help and learning opportunities
