    Description

    !! November - we are looking for a man to help with olive harvesting, renovation work in the house and garden!!

    ** By hosting people to help us we understood that we were sharing not only our home but also our energy. **

    Hello, we are Ewelina, Daniel, our daughter Nela. Pets also hold an important place in our family. Dog Majlo, female Biscottina, cats Gaja, Gioia, Amore, Nerina. We also have chickens that also have names.
    !! We are people with high empathy, we feel energy, we are interested in spirituality. We have a positive approach to life and every day we try to be grateful for life, family, nature and health. !!
    # It is important for us to share time and space with people similar to us. If like us you are interested in spirituality, ecology, you are friendly and willing to help, please contact us.

    We are from Poland. In 2020, we volunteered with workaway.info in Italy and fell in love with the country. Then the crazy idea of ​​moving was born. We live in the countryside in Umbria. We are surrounded by nature, we live at the end of the road, so it is quiet here. Just like we wanted. We have an olive grove and a vegetable garden.
    Daniel performs house renovations on a daily basis. He has a lot of experience and you can learn a lot from him.
    You will be a member of our family, so we need help with cooking and cleaning. We have a daughter who loves talking to people. We are happy to share our vision of life and positive attitude.
    Every day we learn to live in harmony with nature, in an ecological way.
    I'm currently pregnant, so Daniel is alone with a lot of work.
    A couple is welcome - the man could help with the work outside and the woman could help with the housework.
    Our dream is to be as self-sufficient as possible. We are vegetarians, so fruit and vegetables dominate our diet.
