  Description

  I am a dancer and dance therapist, juggler, macrame artisan, peasant apprentice.
  I aspire to be able to support myself with these activities and some agricultural artifacts, I still have a lot to learn about the managerial and organizational management of these autonomous activities related to art and land
  For some years I have returned to live near the lands of my grandparents, I have land and some agricultural tools available, I would like over time to be able to bring these lands to life, with a little agriculture and maybe one day with the possibility of being able to share these spaces for tourism or space for artistic residences or personal growth paths.

  I speak italian, English, Spanish and quite a bit of French. I lived for a period of my life in Barcelona and London, I travelled to Europe, Brasil, and many times to Marrocos and India, still a lot to explore. I can teach you how to cook some typical Italian dishes, whow to make jams and syrups I have a wood oven and we can cook pizza, bread, cakes. I teach Tribal Fusion Dance, I'm a dancer, a dancetherapist and a fire juggler, and I conduct dance therapy group sessions and you can participate to some of them.
  By organizing myself with work, I have a car and I can accompany you to the nearest train station or to explore the neighboring countries and points of scenic and tourist interest.
  I'm a macramè artesan, I can teach you the macramè tecnique.

  Help

  I am living in my great-grandmother's house, recovering the long uncultivated land cultivated in the past by my grandparents. I have a small cultivation of lavender, saffron and olives, I make jams, oleolites of lavender, rosemary and calendula. Above all I have to clear the earth of brambles, collect wood and broken branches, cut the grass. Near the house there is a small old stone's house, once it was a house, it has then become a tool shed, there is no water or electricity, over time I would like to make it a habitable house or a usable space.
  I'm a dancer and a dancetherapist, I'm working with dance I might need help to create a video or photos and help for internet, marketing and social.
  Passionate about dance and juggling with fire, art and music who have knowledge and inspiration to share are welcome.

  Accommodation

  I live in a small and simple house, with basic comforts, consisting of two bedrooms, dining room, kitchen, bathroom. I offer an independent bedroom, or to share with other travelers, a kitchen to use independently when at work, a bathroom with a bathtub. Plenty of space in nature and an outdoor relax area, with barbecue and wood oven. For drought, especially in summer I try to avoid excessive use of water (eg shower instead of bath, I recover the water with which I washed the vegetables and fruit).

  What else ...

  I live in a great little paradise of nature, vying to become a unesco heritage site, medieval towers and villages, woods, meadows, wild animals (foxes, wild boars, roe deer, squirrels, buzzards ...). At the foot of the Asti Langhe at about 600 meters above sea level. One hour by train from Liguria and the sea. Half an hour from Acqui Terme, an archaeological site city of ancient Rome. There is the possibility of making many hikes in the woods, clearly marked, cycling, relaxing, taking pictures of wonderful landscapes, getting in touch with nature, enjoying good food and good wine.
  I can teach you how to cook some typical Italian dishes, I have a wood oven and you can cook pizza, bread, cakes.
  By organizing myself with work, I have a car and can accompany you to the nearest train station or to explore the neighboring countries and points of scenic and tourist interest.
  Depending on my work commitments, we will be able to do tasks together or I could ask for the favor of performing some tasks independently while I am not there.
