Description
My name is Marcello. I am a counselor for relationship and I really enjoy meet friends and anyone who likes to share the love for nature and meditation in my home In the woods. The place is located in the wood between Nibbiaia and Gabbro, Livorno, Tuscany, Italy.
The location is called Poggio D'arco. It is just 10 minutes by car from the beach of Quercianella.
Me and my friends are creating a no business project of a little paradise in the woods, where people could meet to meditate, dance and share self-growing experiences. For this I need help and ideas to make it happen. Probably the help will involves making the woods nice, and comfortable by make tree house, small wood house, and other artist structures. I will exchange accommodation for 3 hours/day for 5 days a week help (no meals). The workaway volunteers won't be helping with any business related activities/spaces.
To reach the place there are some buses, yet, it would be much much better to have the car or scouter .Grazie <3

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
The place is beautiful in a very good area o the Tuscany sea immersed in the green 10 minutes by car from the beach of Quercianella, Livorno, Italy. Near there are many different type of sea cost. Not too far away from nice village and big city like Florence, Livorno, Pisa. If you want too study Italian, learn about the Italian culture, the cucine, eat a lot of good food and fish, do tracking, go on the beach every day by walking this is the perfect place to relax yourself.
Help
The project is a friends, family no profit, not operating as a business and workaway volunteers won't be helping with any business related activities/spaces.
The idea is to create beautiful, relaxing small paradise in the woods, for everyone need to have a moment of rest, meditate and relate with people like surrounded by nature. For this, depending from your own capacities I need help, with gardening, little wood work, create art structure, although all most manual works together we will see how to adjust your skills and your preference to the need of the momenti.
I will exchange accommodation for 3 hours/day for 5 days a week help (no meals).
