  Description

  We are a Swiss family that has been living in Orosei, Sardinia, since August 2001. We own a residence with 12 apartments that we rent out during the summer. We also own a beautiful 6-hectare property, the Chilivri, on which we have two orchards, lots of trees, chickens, and rabbits. We do not need help for the tourism business as we have employes for that during the season.
  
  We were planning a new project at the Chilivri with an Acquaponics system, maybe even 8 bungalows after the fishbusiness is working well and house of prayer, and a big multi-purpose building with a kitchen for agricultural purposes. Acquaponics is a system of aquaculture in which the waste produced by farmed fish or other aquatic creatures supplies the nutrients for plants grown hydroponically, which in turn purify the water for the fish. This will help us to grow our own organic vegetables and fish. we postponed it to some other year.
  
  At the moment, Mid October to May, we are looking for helpers that can stay in one of our apartments at the residence in exchange for helping us 3 hours at the land or with other chores around the house. Some maintenance in the apartments may be welcome. (looking after the chickens and rabbits) cutting trees, cutting grass, remove weeds around trees and in the vineyard, chop wood, plant, cure plants. work the compost and distribute. burn branches etc.) We also need to build a wall with stones from our land around our property. And also build/repair the fence to not allow the wild boars to enter. If you have skills with this, let us know. in the summer (and winter) you need to water a lot of plants and do maintenance of the water system) Feed the animals and clean them out) the It would be ideal if you had a small home office job (there is wifi) with which you could provide your own food. Minimum stay is 1 month or longer. If you are looking for housing and food please let us know, we might be able to find a solution.
  
  During the tourism season (from May until October) we are very busy with our residence and will also need help to take care of our orchards, gardens, chickens, and rabbits. During this time, you would stay in a camper at the Chilivri. There is a big outdoor kitchen, running water, and electricity and you will be surrounded by beautiful nature. At the moment, there is no wifi at the Chiliri, so if you need wifi access you can use the wifi at the residence, which is 2 Km from the Chilivri. It's best to come with your own car. If you do not own a car you may use one of our bicycles.
  
  Our wish is that our place will be a small „Rifugio“ (shelter) to you that feels like home.
