    Hello everyone, my name is Alessandro, I'm 41 years old and I live in a wood near Perugia, around the house there is a lot of greenery with the possibility of staying with tents if you like, I'm a firefighter by profession, so I'm Sometimes I won't be at home but don't worry my cat Mia will be there to keep you company. What I need help with cutting the grass in the garden, taking care of the plants, and various jobs to be done inside and outside the house, exchanging ideas and new knowledge of people of light, it is advisable to bring work and sturdy shoes. As far as accommodation is concerned, you will have a room with a private bathroom at your disposal, there is internet in the house but I don't have a television (I think it is a useless object). I speak English just to understand each other but I'm open to learning it. The house is located about 20 km from Perugia

    Ciao a tutti mi chiamo Alessandro ho 41 anni e vivo a in un bosco nelle vicinanze di Perugia, intorno a casa c'è molto verde con possibilità anche di stare con delle tende se ne avete piacere, faccio il Vigile del Fuoco di mestiere dunque a volte non sarò in casa ma niente paura ci sarà la mia gatta Mia a tenervi compagnia. Quello di cui avrei bisogno un aiuto per quanto riguarda il taglio dell'erba nel giardino, la cura delle piante, e vari lavori da svolgere fuori e dentro casa, scambio di idee e nuove conoscenze di persone di luce, si consiglia di portare indumenti da lavoro e scarpe resistenti. Per quanto riguarda l'alloggio avrete a disposizione una camera con bagno privato, in casa c'è internet ma non ho la televisione (penso che sia un oggetto inutile). Parlo inglese giusto per capirci ma sono aperto ad impararlo.
    La casa si trova a circa 20 km da Perugia

    Accommodation

    We offer a two-places bedroom, with a window-door, and a private living room equipped with a sofa-bed and a table with chairs, and bathroom with shower. These rooms are connected to the ones we live in by a staircase and a door that can be closed, and they occupy our whole lower flat. There is also a private entrance. During summer we need to use this part of the house only to make the machine washing, while during the cold season we access often to put wood in the fireplace, since this is our central heating source. Everything is in very good conditions. About meals, we eat everything and have no problems with vegetarian or vegan food. We usually have breakfast in the morning, lunch at about 1-2 pm and dinner at 8 . We like to cook.
