Description
I lived in Paris from 1999 and worked in the HORECA industry (Hospitality, Restaurants, Cafés) in France, the United States, the Netherlands, and Southeast Asia. After 21 years of adventures around the world, I returned to my hometown, where I stay from March to November. I have restored and renovated my family home on 8,000 square meters of land with about 80 olive trees and other fruit trees. I am dedicated to caring for and preserving this piece of land located in a wonderful part of Puglia.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Located near Maruggio in the province of Taranto in the Puglia region, this countryside property is just 1.8 km from the beach and boasts olive groves and stunning views. The region is known for its coastline, the longest in Italy, its historic villages, and its olive oil production. There is so much to see and do! This region is easy to find inspiration for any creative. Plus, the perfect opportunity to practice your Italian ;)From my side, I can share my knowledge of cooking, teach you how to repair everyday items as I've become a DIY and gardening expert, or tell you a bit about the history of this region.

Help
At the moment, I think I'll need mostly help to fix the irrigation system, olives harvest ,planting and care of plants, watering and caring trees , and help to carry the stones to finish building the typical dry wall, and others DIY works
