    Description

    We are a very open mind couple, we enjoy meet new people and cultures, we love animals, nature and freedom. We live in a small house in the wood and we are working to make it completely energy self-sufficiency, with solar panels, wood stoves, boiler.. At few km from the house we have a small private horse riding center. We would like bring some horses home, so we need help to finish build paddocks.
    We have another house in the country side closer to Lucca and at the vegetable garden, sometimes we sleep there and sometime in the house in the wood, it depends from the season or just where we are working in that days.
    In free time we like to go to the beach, to the river with the horses, trekking in the mountain, travel with the van and meet new people.
    We would like to host at least two person, better for a long period, one mount or more.
    If you would like to know more about as, we can have a videocall or send you more pics or video.
    We are happy to answare any question😊
