  Description

  Good morning, I'm Gianpiero Architect / skipper.
  I look for help to build a room for architecture studio use, with a bookcase. Then I would like to make a garden of fruit and vegetables, and build two huts with natural materials suitable also for winter where to host friends ... and in the future maybe open a glamping .... I have a small but nice and comfortable house where I can accommodate 2/3 people maximum, until the huts are ready.The place where I live is near the sea with beautiful beaches and near beautiful baroque towns like Noto, Ragusa Ibla, Scicli, Modica, where we can go together to visit them. I have 3 bikes, a canoe, two windsurfers, which you can use together. I wait for you.
