    Description

    Hi! I'm Andrea, 30 years old. I live in Casteldaccia, on the hills above Palermo, a 5-minute drive from the sea. I'm looking for laid-back people who love animals and DIY, and are looking for a genuine exchange. Here, life is slow, among dogs and a garden.

    Ciao! Sono Andrea, 30 anni. Vivo a Casteldaccia nella casa costruita da mio nonna, una bellissima casa e con tanto terreno a 17 minuti da Palermo. Sto cercando di realizzare un bell'orto, mi piace aggiungere opere e sculture varie nel terreno,ci vuole tanta creatività. Cerco persone tranquille, amanti degli animali e del fai-da-te, con voglia di scambio vero. Qui si vive lenti, tra cani e giardino.

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    Sicilian home life: we cook traditional dishes together, and I'll teach you grandma's recipes. I'll show you how to do maintenance and gardening with basic tools. We speak Italian, and I'll introduce you to the dialect and local customs. You'll be around the dogs every day.

    Vita di casa siciliana: cuciniamo piatti tipici insieme, ti insegno ricette della nonna. Ti faccio vedere come si fa manutenzione e giardinaggio con attrezzi base. Parliamo italiano e ti faccio conoscere il dialetto e le abitudini del paese. Stai a contatto coi cani ogni giorno.

    Want to get your hands dirty? I'm looking for someone to help keep my house and garden tidy: painting, pruning, and light repairs. No experience required; I'll teach you everything. I'm looking for calm, responsible people with pets who are eager to learn real household chores.

    Ti va di mettere le mani in pasta? Cerco una mano per tenere casa e giardino in ordine: pittura, potatura, riparazioni leggere. Nessuna esperienza richiesta, ti insegno tutto. Non mi aspetto che i volontari lavorino molte ore e non impongo orari. Potete lavorare divertendovi quanto volete, quando volete e in qualsiasi momento.Cerco persone calme, responsabili con gli animali e curiose di imparare lavori di casa veri.
