    it is a real paradise here around. The Madonie uncontaminated mountains are gorgeous, full of little cities with hystorical monuments and churchs. Cefalù with all its seasides around is famous in the whole world for its beaches and clean sea.

    E' un vero paradiso, qui intorno. Le incontaminate montagne delle Madonie sono bellissime, piene di paesini con monumenti storici e chiese antiche. Cefalù con tutte le sue spiagge è famosa nel mondo per la bellezza e il mare pulitissimo.

    Help with plants and in the ground, easy works but not possible anymore for an elder lady like me.

    Aiuto con le piante e nel terreno, lavori facili ma non più adatti a una persona anziana come me.

    Accommodation

    One tiny room in my home (The bed is still unfolded in the photo , it's an Ikea foldable bed which mattress when unfolded is 2 mt. x 70 cm in size with a wooden basis. Since I am quite weak I am not comfortable to unfold it by myself just in order to make the photo so it's still folded there) or a lot of private external space for tent or camper. I can also offer a Forclaz tent for 2 person with mattress and sleeping bag. I will offer vegetarian food.

    // una piccolissima stanza in casa mia (nella foto il letto, che è un pieghevole di Ikea, non è stato aperto, perchè da sola non mi trovo bene ad aprirlo, cmq il materasso è di 2mt x 70 cm e la base è di legno) oppure molto spazio privato esterno in cui piantare la mia tenda Forclaz per 2 persone con materasso e sacco a pelo. Offrirò cibo vegetariano.
