    Description

    Hallo everyone! My name is Lucia, living in the countryside near Lucca, Tuscany.
    I am mum of two guys, 11 and 14 years old, that live with me almost all week.
    My home has two gardens, that I would like to take in order, possibly to change in vegetable gardens.
    They are pretty small, so it isn't an hard work!!
    I offer a single room to my host, who will help me with green spaces around my home and inside. I would like to change place to some of the household furnitures, giving a new look!
