  Beschreibung

  I'm Julia, an argentinian living in a beautiful valley in the north of Italy in a typical "Cascina" at 700 meters altitude with my dog and four cats since 2016. I have one and a half hectares of land, with a garden and a variety of trees.
  I'm a second hand book curator, i'm really passionate about books and literature, and I'm also part of a project, a small mountain library, that is self'managed and independent when we search and share different books about wild animals, mountains, native peoples, food - self sufficiency, spirituality, feminism, wild erbs and antispecism. I'm really interest in this topic :)
  I live very simply, I'm a calm person, I like to share but also enjoy being on my own. In the summer we mainly deal with the garden, with the production of different varieties of vegetables that will in part be preserved and consumed during the winter. I'm also renovating a new room and the outside area at the moment.
  During the summer time I also enjoy going to the river.
  I'm looking for people who are enthusiastic about living with what nature offers!
  I'm vegan, we will share the kitchen, animal products are not allowed in this house.

  Arbeit

  I need help with the garden, general maintenance, the renovation of the new room, preserving food, making wood for the winter, building projects.
  A minimum of adaptability and practicability is required, considering a daily relation with wild nature and a lack of comfort normally expected.
  In addition to the required hours of work, help is appreciated in domestic work: cleaning, washing dishes, help in the kitchen :)
