Description
I live in a flat in a beautiful medieval village in western Liguria (Italy) and I have a piece of land at 40 minutes of a nice walk (or 20 by car). The place is magic to me and there are always many things to do: cut the grass, vegetable gardening, watering, plant trees, take care of the forest, organise wood for the winter, rebuild part of the dry-stone walls that contain the terraces, imagine and plan how to make everything better... but also contemplate and swim in the nearby river. In this moment I especially need to move stones and other heavy stuff to reorganise walls and fences, so I am looking for quite strong and active people to help me with this kind of tasks that I cannot manage alone.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
The village, near to the French border, is at the same time very typical and very international, and it's worth being discovered day by day. I am always glad to introduce my guests to its peculiarities and to the people who inhabit it. Especially during the summer there are quite many different cultural initiatives around, and I like improvising also according to the company I can share with.

Accommodation
I have a room for the guests, but it's also possible to sleep in the land if appreciated. I am mostly vegetarian and when possible I prefer to eat local and seasonal products that I enjoy combining in simple but creative ways. I will share meals with the volunteers and imply them in the process of cooking if they wish.

What else ...
During the time off it is possible to swim in the laghetti of Rocchetta Nervina, to trek around following the paths that start from the village, to take the bus to get to the sea or to the nearby villages or to the trains that go to the French riviera.
