    Description

    I live in a big house that I am renovating with natural construction methods. With me on the property live a dog (Shy) and 2 cats (blues and polka) and they will give you lot of cuddles.
    There is a huge garden where I can host people and where travellers can collect fruit and vegetables. In the nearbay there is the river park of the Piave river wher you can go and wolk around or run with the bike, you also can reach the sea with the bike in two hours.
    Little bit more distant you can vist the magic city of Venice, i can help you with the transportation.
    However if you instead want to stay in the nature, 20km form here there is the natural oasis of Brussa.
    Not more important the dolomiti natural park is in 1 hour by car.
    The city of Fossalta di Piave (where i live) is small but wit all the services needed, should be a market, a pizzeria or pub... ecc
    During all the off moments i can bring you around as a travel guide.

  • Accommodation

    Accommodation

    I can offer a caravan roulotte and a shared bathroom.

    If you will appreciate it, we will cook together and eat together all the days off you stay/help.
    I really 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 ...

    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
