    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We can show up how it's living with a traditional sicilian family.
    My mother is the chief and will teach many tips. Maybe we can try to make pizza together sometimes.
    My father is expert in agriculture so he can teach many stuff about.

    I have been a workawayer until yesterday, so i know very well what it means. I can share many stories and many experiences that i personally lived that i'm sure, if you are new in this world, you will like to know.

    I can teach some basic acroyoga if you wish to learn it, and we can have a yoga daily routine every morning before breakfast if you want!

    I'm also learning ukulele and drums so if you are a musician you are very welcome to teach me, if you are not we can learn together!

    There is a bike you can use to go around, in 20 minutes walking you will get Caltanissetta that is a city with everything you need (bar, pubs,markets, shops etc). Caltanissetta is in the middle of sicily and it connects with every place so wherever you want to go you can find a train or a bus.

    If I'm free we can arrange a day-trip or better a weekend-trip with my van to get some special natural spots around sicily.
