Description
I live in Puglia, southern Italy in a big house on a large plot of land and I could do with some help!
I am planning to set up my house for hosting guests but also would like to restore an old animal pen to keep animals again. The house needs painting and the land needs to be tidied up. I would love to shape the garden so to provide food in a sustainable manner.
Anybody with the spirit of enterprise and goodwill is very welcome! -

Help
I have not hosted any workaways for some time now and would like to tidy the interior and exterior of my house and land.
I live here on my own and I have a dream of create a place where I and whoever needs to, can embrace nature. -

What else ...
Here it is pure, rural country life with the benefit of technology and modern comforts. The atmosphere is quiet and peaceful but at few km away Ostuni, the closest town to the house, is lively and relatively interesting.
The sea is about 15 km.
The weather is usually good, hot in summer and perfectly mild in spring. It can rain a lot in the winter. -
