Description
I am a 67 year old English man. I live most of the time alone in a beautiful villa in the village of Treia. I have been in Italy about a year and am still learning Italian. I also speak some Russian and French.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
I am learning the Electric guitar would be good if you are also a musician. I am also interested in astronomy and have a good telescope.

Help
I need help mostly in the garden at the right season, harvesting olives and at other times generally keeping the garden and house clean and tidy. I have no experience of harvesting olives so I am hoping for someone who knows what to do including what type of olive press i need to buy. I have about 25 small trees.

What else ...
It’s a short walk into the beautiful village of Treia where you can catch a bus if you want to go elsewhere. I often drive to Macerata and will be happy to give you a ride when I’m doing this.
