    Description

    I'm 72 years old. I live in Trentino, 20 km from Riva del Garda. I live alone in a house in the woods, 2 km from the provincial road and public transport.
    I farm organically, exclusively for my own consumption. I produce vegetables, oil, wine, fruit, and honey.
    I have a dog, some chickens, and I've been a beekeeper for many years.
    My hobbies are life and the things I do.
    My lifestyle is geared towards self-sufficiency, avoiding waste, and reusing.
    I can offer guests room and board in exchange for a few hours of help (4-5) tending the garden, preparing firewood for the winter, harvesting the land, maintaining the environment, etc.
    As an experienced beekeeper, I can train anyone interested in this field.
    In addition to Italian, I speak some French.
    I can host no more than 2 people at a time and for periods of 10/15 days.

    Ho 72 anni. Abito in Trentino a 20km da Riva del Garda. Vivo da solo in una casa nel bosco a 2km dalla strada provinciale e dai mezzi pubblici.
    Mi occupo di agricoltura biologica destinata quasi esclusivamente all'autoconsumo. Produco ortaggi, olio, vino, frutta e miele.
    Ho un cane, alcune galline e, da molti anni, faccio l'apicoltore.
    I miei hobby sono la vita e le cose che faccio.
    Il mio stile di vita è orientato all'autosufficienza, ad evitare gli sprechi, al riuso.
    Agli ospiti posso offrire vitto e alloggio in cambio di qualche ora di aiuto (4/5) nella cura dell'orto, nella preparazione della legna per l'inverno, nella raccolta dei frutti della terra, nella manutenzione dell'ambiente ecc.
    Essendo un apicoltore esperto, posso formare coloro che sono interessati a questo settore.
    Oltre all'italiano, parlo un pò di francese.
    Posso ospitare non più di 2 persone alla volta e per periodi di 10/15 giorni.
