Join my traditional way of life in Sardinia, Sadali, Italy

  Description

  The place where I live is a tiny village (800 inhabitants) in the interior of Sardinia. It's a very wild and beautiful landscape, a bit far from crowded and "civilized" places. It's on a high plain (called "taccu") at about 750 m. surrounded by mountains. Nature is really predominant.
  I am a 70 years old woman, and I live mainly alone in my own house, but I have a partner in the village, with whom I share a lot and, at the moment, also my 26 years old son is spending some time with me.

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  The village is very steeped in Sardinian culture and willing to share. There are typical Sardinian festivals and often communal gatherings at witch guests are welcomed. In the area are many remnants of the bronze-age Nuraghe civilization.
  I am a qualified Yoga teacher and masseur and my partner is a historian and a teacher in bronze and iron age martial arts. We both would love to share our knowledge. We hope to learn from our guests whatever they have to share with us.

  Help

  I have a vegetable garden and I would require some help on the land, planting and so on. I have a lot of tasks going on all around my house, which other people are already involved in but in which help could be useful.
  If the workawayer would be skilled, I would be very happy in sharing tasks and projects , and surely the not exoerienced workawayer could learn something from the persons already involved.
  I have been an italian teacher and a yoga teacher, so, I could offer the opportunity of learning better the language or other skills.

  Accommodation

  I can offer a clean private room with a big bed in my house. Meals will be taken together in my kitchen or outside in my garden.
  I will prepare all the meals myself and I will share the time of the meals with the workawayer. I usually cook according to Italian Kitchen, but I am pretty experienced in other styles. If the guest would appreciate to partecipate in preparing food, that would be welcome.

  What else ...

  Nature walks are the main attraction here: we have a few small rivers and a lake to swim in and even some caves to visit. Public transport is scarce, a few busses between Sadali and Cagliari (the main city and closest in Sardinia).
