Description
Wanna experience the tiny house living near the sea in a beautiftul nature surrounding??
Offering a long stay position to one person (or couple) traveling with your own car (important) on our land here near the beautiful old town of Scicli.
There are two small houses on the land (one is often rented out for holidays) and lots of trees/plants to offer some care.
The main mission is to take care of the two (super kind) dogs and few cats, while I’m not there but also to give a hand for the periods I’m present.
You’ll have your own space and habitat, fully independent. It’s a safe space where we also often welcome various volunteers from NGOs around in the civil rescue at sea.
We welcome essentially open minded people, with a sense for independence and autonomy, politically switched on and with good ability with animals (big plus if you’re a bit handy or willing to learn). Please don’t text for short term stays; looking for someone who’d like to stay the winter (till the end of the year at least) and who’ll build a trust relation with the dogs. Life is simple but very good here, great healthy food, crazy beaches nearby, peaceful surroundings without being too isolated (10min to the city).
Warmest!
Charlie

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
The place is on the countryside near Scicli, a truly beautiful area. The neighbours children bring much life to the place, and we're lucky here to be surrounded by mostly genuine, simple and adorable people from the countryside.

Help
I’d be happy about different type of helps, but when I’m looking for workawayers it’s mostly for help with the animals and a bit of gardening.

Accommodation
The tiny house is very comfortable, has the basic comfort (hot water, internet, etc) but mostly offers a very nature orientated vibe without being too isolated. The toilet is a compost toilet (but well constructed, clean and attached to the house). It has also a large terrasse to enjoy the external vibes and magic lights.

What else ...
I dont follow stict rules, and therefore i think the best is always to let each one bring and share what he/she wants, and let things come as they'll come. On the principle I simply like the idea of sharing this lovely place and offering this original experience in a nature immersed structure in return of some precious help (there’s always smth to do here..).
