    Description

    Hello everyone! My name is Elia and I'm a 25 years old aspiring documentarist and a permaculture newby. I spend most of my time in my family home with my parents and sometimes some of my 3 siblings (27 to 30 years old). We live in a tiny village in the middle of a national natural park, 600mt on the level of the sea and 30 mins away from the beach. There will be a traditional food festival from the 27th of July and we're looking for volunteers who can join us and have fun with us!

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    You will have a chance to learn or practice some Italian with my family and the people of the village who are very welcoming.

    You will be immersed in a natural park, cradle of the Mediterranean diet where you will discover and experience one of the healthiest and richest existing diet.

    My father is a wood artesan and he can teach you a thing or two about carpentering work (if you speak some Italian).

    HELP NEEDED IN JULY FOR A TRADITIONAL FOOD FESTIVAL
    There will be a food festival in our village at the end of July, we will need help before the event in preparing the food, the space etc... and during the event. It would be a great opportunity for you to learn about traditional cuisine (making homemade pasta and pizza, harvesting vegetables etc...), practice your italian and have tons of fun!


    For any other dates, the helps you can offer is varied and always very welcome. From gardening to artistic projects.
    We are currently doing some construction work at home and we will need help with flooring, painting, cleaning the space etc...
    I would love to start a permaculture garden, if you know about the subject and can share such knowledge with me, you're very welcome!!
    Anyone else is welcome to come and live with us for a while. You'll be a member of the family :)
    There's always an opportunity for you to make and express your artistic flair.
    My mom is very much into mosaics and I'm sure she would love some help with that and you can learn together.
