Description
Hi everyone
Greetings from sonny Sardinia
My passion is music 🎶 i listen to all sorts and
Would love to play an instrument (electric bass)
Tried from internet but it does not cut it for me 😔
I leave in a beautiful spot by the beach . Great big house willing to share it with someone that's willing to teach me how to play .
I Ve owned a jazz bar in London for many years unfortunately I Ve never managed to find the time to learn how to play as I was stuck behind the running of it .
I moved away for UK to Sardinia in a surf location i not a surfer but I love the area .
I Ve learned how to renovate the property where I leave but I miss terribly my old life regretting not to have learned how to play an instrument 🎸 while I had a chance.
Well....i guess this is my time as i have time to spare .

This was a very successful place to get a feel for the Workaway system. Sergio and Amelia are really great hosts and have their hearts in the right place.

This was a great workaway experience! Sergio and Amelia were very hospitable hosts, with interesting careers and a fantastic sense of humour. My accommodation was one of the best I've had so far - a private room with my own shower and toilet. We got to try lots of Italian food and the hosts even took us out for pizza! Thank you for everything, and… read more

Sergio and Amelia are two of the hardest working people I have ever met. Staying with them was an amazing experience I will never forget.
The work is varied enough to not get stale. The food is worthy of five stars alone.
I wish you; Sergio, Amelia and Francesco, all the best and I hope i'm on the list for your future music festival :)

What better way to start off my workaway experience! Sergio and Amelia were amazing hosts and made me feel like part of the family. I learnt so many valuable skills in the 2 weeks I stayed such as sustainability, water systems, forest clearing, recycling, bees and honey making and even how to build a pool. It is incredible how work these guys have… read more

Our first amazing host!
Sergio answered us always very quickly, also to our last minute request.
When we arrived there were other workawayers and the atmosphere was very familiar: we spent a lot of time together during our stay.
Sergio is a really handyman and he is full of inventiveness.
Amelia is a clever farmer and expert of aromatic plants.… read more

I had a good week here with this lovely Italian family (who speak wonderful English). The place is (at October 2016) a bit of a 'work in progress' with the main straw bale building structures up but the final finish yet to happen.
