Description
I'm Francesco ©️
A dreamer of new experiences,
colonizer of specificity,
predator of knowledge.

Finding out something which make my life rich.
I love to travel, find out new things, understand and open my mind. I love to taste different kind of food and drink, knowing that before or after i have to come back to mine.
I adore my origins, i love reading in difficult contestual situation, it's helpful to make time more forgot.
I love walking without a destination into the nature. Exchange words with aged people from little countries that belong to my origins.
I adore to spend time with my family and share with them easy and hard moments .
I love sport, as a way of social and culture communication .
I love helping people and i love being always aware of game's dynamic.

I don't know how to count my interest during my days, i'm an active person and i discover always new things.
More i stay still and more i feel sad and tired, more i move myself and more i feel myself strong.

We are a Family Home with more than twenty people living under the same roof.
My parents Mauro and Norina, over 35 years ago, chose to quit their jobs and give their lives to the cause of humanitarian aid, to the most disadvantaged, to prisoners.
Within our large house we host people from prison within a careful program of practical help and analysis of the person.
The boys therefore pay the penalty in our house, in peace and harmony, working and sweating for something beautiful.
The program set up for each individual person also helps with social inclusion when the prison sentence is over.
Since the family home was opened, over 600 people have come from many countries in the world.

The benefits that you can derive from this reality are many, surely the direct sharing with more people, more colors and ideologies, cultures, thoughts, souls, languages ...
You will be able to draw benefits related to the world of beekeeping and honey production, of the organic farming, of respect for mother earth. You can benefit from letting yourself go and learning new concepts, words and methodologies related to the social world to help problematic people.
You will be able to benefit from learning the art of food once, healthy and peasant.
You can derive other benefits, abstract and thought of by yourself because you remember that whatever surrounds you is a healthy carrier of innovation.

We live in Castagnetoli, an ancient medieval village rich in history and culture, in Lunigiana, north of Tuscany.
The houses of the village are surrounded by greenery, immersed in a reality that has almost disappeared today.
Here the passion for the earth is of fundamental importance, respect for nature is the key to a better world.

The help you will do are related to the improvement, cleaning and maintenance of land, olive groves, orchards, vegetable gardens, feeding the animals (poultry, rabbits, donkey, goats), sharing family life, being resourceful, lively, autonomous , willing to get their hands dirty and learn something new.
