    Description

    I live in a big house with a big garden. I have a dog (Shy) and a cat (Polka), and they will give you lots of cuddles.
    There is a huge garden where I can host people and where traveller will be able to collect fruit and vegetables one day.
    Together we will take care of the garden.
    In the nearby there is the river park of the Piave River where you can go and walk around or run on a bike, you can also reach the sea by bike in two hours.
    A little bit more distant, you can visit the magic city of Venice, and I can help you with the transportation.
    However, if you instead want to stay in nature, 20km from here, there is the natural oasis of Brussa.
    The Dolomiti Natural Park, 1 and a half hours by car.
    The city of Fossalta di Piave (where I live) is small but with all the services needed, there should be a market, a pizzeria or a pub... ecc
    During all the off moments, I can bring you around as a travel guide.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    There are 4 rooms with a private bathroom. One of them will be yours (the rooms will be ready at the end of July 2025)

    If you appreciate it, we will cook together and eat together all the days of your stay/help.
    I love to share the moments of cooking/eating and try to learn new dishes from your place.
    But it is an "open moment" and will not be a must-have, and sometimes I can't be present during lunch or dinner.

  • What else ...

    As you see my accommodation is not very comfortable I offer food and drink for free and during "off moments" i can take you nearby to the main attraction places as Venice and the Dolomites
