    Good morning workawayers!!
    My name is Matteo, I'm 43 years old, and I live in Sardinia on a small plot of land just steps from the sea, not far from the cities of Alghero and Sassari.
    I've been taking care of this place for eight years and have begun to realize my dream of living in nature, in a simple and authentic way.
    I cultivate a vegetable garden for my own produce (except in the summer due to the lack of water), I've planted a small olive grove of about 60 trees, and I have a few fruit trees.
    I live alone, in a caravan, with the company of a beautiful Maremma dog and a lovely cat.
    The place is stunning, very wild, immersed in the Porto Ferro natural park.

    Buongiorno workawayers!!
    Sono Matteo,ho 43 anni,vivo in Sardegna in un piccolo terreno a due passi dal mare non molto lontano dalle città di Alghero e Sassari.
    Da 8 anni a questa parte mi prendo cura di questo posto ed ho iniziato a realizzare il mio sogno di vivere in natura,in maniera semplice e genuina.
    Coltivo un orto x la produzione propria (eccetto l'estate per la mancanza di acqua necessaria),ho impiantato un piccolo oliveto di circa 60 piante e ho qualche albero da frutto.
    Vivo da solo,in roulotte,con la compagnia di una bellissima cagnolona maremmana e di una splendida gattina.
    Il posto è stupendo,molto selvaggio,immerso nel parco naturale di Porto Ferro
