    Description

    Hi, I'm the village of Frullino, I'm a very large green space that hosts a family, resilient friends and travellers. Here we make pizza, homemade bread and biscuits, have an organic vegetable garden and we meet to play together. Those who come to visit us have the opportunity to stop under a cool pine forest, enjoy the sound of nature and admire the sunsets. Either be an active part of the existing project or propose a new one, as long as it fits in with the soul of the Borgo. I offer a shared indoor space for cooking, spending time together, or simply reading a book. I am completely surrounded by nature, cycling and trekking routes, and the sea very close. Nearby there is a small village where you can find markets, restaurants, bars etc. The city of Lecce is only seven kilometers away. I need your help in the garden, in the vegetable patch, in the kitchen (we really like to eat and we like to do it with our hands, so we cook a lot! From bread, pizza, pasta, gnocchi, ... to desserts) and in small tasks at home:) We provide room and board.

    Ciao, sono il borgo del Frullino, sono uno spazio verde molto grande che ospita una famiglia, amici resilienti e viaggiatori. Qui si fa la pizza, il pane e i biscotti fatti in casa, l’orto biologico e ci si incontra per suonare assieme.
    Chi viene a visitarci ha la possibilità di sostare sotto una fresca pineta, godere del suono della natura e ammirare i tramonti. O essere parte attiva del progetto esistente o proporne uno nuovo, basta che si sposa con quello dell’anima del Borgo. Offro uno spazio in comune al coperto per cucinare, passare del tempo insieme, o semplicemente leggere un libro. Sono completamente circondato da natura, da percorsi cicloturistici e trekking, mare molto vicino. Nelle vicinanze c’è un paesino dove si possono trovare market, ristoranti, bar etc.
    La città di Lecce è a soli sette chilometri.
    Ho bisogno del tuo aiuto in giardino, nell’orto, in cucina (ci piace molto mangiare e ci piace farlo con le nostre mani, quindi cuciniamo molto! Dal pane, pizza, pasta, gnocchi, ... ai dolci) e nei lavoretti di casa:)
    Diamo vitto e alloggio.
