  Description

  I’m living wit my family in Liguria on the hill 15 minutes up from the cost of Finale Ligure. It’s a beautiful house on country side in the middle of green. We have chickens and three cats. We’re also cultivating vegetables in permaculture way. We are producing only for our own consumption.
  We're 400 meters up, surrounded by forests with a view of the sea. It is a perfect place for biking and climbing. Our house is located in the middle of a nature reserve, with a large property full of fruit and chestnut trees.
  It is an attractive area for mountain and sea lovers. The nearest well-known coastal town is Finale Ligure, a 15-minute drive away from our place.
  My husband and I come from the art film scene. My husband still makes films, and I occasionally work on screenplays. We have two children, Masha (8) and Malik (7). Both attend an alternative outdoor school.

  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  I would like to share my knowledge and experience in vegetable cultivation and agriculture, particularly Japanese permaculture. In general, it's all about experiencing nature here, as it's a particularly rich environment in terms of natural diversity. And since I'm well-versed in this area, I'm happy to share this knowledge on hikes, should there be any interest.

  Help

  For work reasons we have to go to Germany 2-3 times in a year. We Need therefore someone who can stay with us for a while and be introduced to everything and to look after the animals and take of the garden when we are away. There is a Tiny house as accommodation with kitchen and bathroom.
  
  It's important to have someone who's familiar with animals like cats and chickens, and who can take care of the vegetable garden. In that regard, I'd like to offer a permaculture course at the beginning. This gives you the opportunity to help in the garden independently. These are all relatively simple tasks. Cats and chickens don't require much care. And permaculture is also easy and time-consuming. Attention: we are producing only for our own consumption!
