Description
Hi! We are an italian family of seven: Virginie (52), Massimo (52), Tommaso (22), Alice (21), Asia (19), Mattia (17) and Sofia (13).
We have lived seven years in Brazil (where we have already welcomed many volunteers) and have returned eight years ago in Europe. We have traveled and lived one year in a camper. We have lived for a period in Sillé le Guillaume (France).
Tommaso and Alice don't live with us anymore.
We have recently returned to Italy and live in Prasco. We also have a piece of land 10 km from here with a vineyard, vegetable gardens, fruit trees and a wooden house that we are fixing up. Our project is to be as autonomous as possible. We cultivate and live as much as possible in harmony with nature.
Our children are unschooled, they are fluent in Italian, Portuguese and French.
We are looking for volunteers who want want to help us in the gardens.

What else ...
We are 50 km from Genova, we are very well connected by train. We are in a very quiet village in the beautiful region of Piemonte, full of nature.
We really like to meet new people and exchange experiences. Our cooking is divided between Italian, Belgian and Brazilian food. We eat a lot of vegetables and fruits, vegetarians and vegans are welcome. We eat local and seasonal food, also produced by us, we make our cheese, our sourdough bread ... we like to eat as naturally as possible. we also live as naturally as possible, we buy a lot of second-hand (clothes, toys) or in barter fairs.
