Description
My name is Francesca and I live by myself-sometimes a black cat comes around- in my family house in the countryside above Maranello. The house has a garden and is surrounded by the hills in a very beautiful area. I am a yoga teacher and I am trying to start some projects including writing something meaningful. I like to be creative and I love to spend time in nature- during spring and summer I I pick up many plants and herbs that I cook and use for natural remedies, too. I like to follow moon cycles and make rituals for specific purposes -only positive vibes here!- or simply notice how they influence our lives. I like to practice, workout, meditate, write. I believe that life is as magic as we allow it to be :)

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
I can teach you what I know about plants and herbs, we can cook together -cooking is one of my passions!- and enjoy simple life. I can teach you what I know about yoga and the things that I love. Of course I'll try to teach you some Italian too.
Help
I need help with the garden, removing weeds, watering, a bit of trimmering. I also need help in the house because it belonged to my grandparents and I need to do a bit of changes to make it really feel like a cozy place that mirrors my soul. So we'll be moving stuff, create DIY accessories for the house and the garden, maybe paint. Also cleaning and tyding up are part of the volunteers activities. It's important to be flexible as there can be very different things to do.

What else ...
In your time off you can be independent, I need time for myself every day. You can walk around and see some nice villages, you can visit Maranello, you can catch a bus and go to Modena. Sometimes I can take you around and visit.
The house is located about 10 minutes by car from Maranello, where the bus station is.The buses connect you to Modena. I can give you a ride if it doesn't collide with my schedule. There are also buses coming to Torre Maina -the name of my village-, though they are not numerous and you still need to walk a good 20 minutes to get to my place. But we can check the timetables together.
