Description
We are a culturally mixed couple (Czech, Beninese and German roots) living in Tuscany (Italy) on a farm. We do have 7 cats, 2 big dogs and 4 chicken and a huge garden with a pond and fruit trees. We do organize artistic workshops from dance to meditation and host the groups at our place. Our place is an idyllic oasis in the middle of nature on 800 meters height at the Monte Amiata and one hours drive from the beach. We are vegetarians and eat biological food.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
you will get to know to live in and with the nature and meet a lot of people from different countries. Staying with us is already a cultural experience, with our deep African roots on one side and the western lifestyle on the other side. You can learn how to prepare biological African dishes and cultivate your own food. If you love nature, animals and meeting new people this is the right place for you. We live next to an tibetean center, Merigar, so that there are also a lot of tibetean buddhists coming to join us.

You can walk 20 minutes to the next village or take the bus, two stops. Merigar, one of the biggest Tibetan Buddhist centers in this region is a 15 minute walk from our place. If you have a car you can go to the natural springs nearby or to the beach. A hike to the highest mountain of the region is in front of your door. We love to meet new people and share our time together but at the same time we expect you to be independent.
