    Description

    I live in a small farm with goats, we make cheeses, and we offer and exchange organic fruit and vegetable crates. I'm not a business, the farm work is entirely on a voluntary basis, and is based on exchanges with other entities like ours that are here in the area.

    Rooms with private bathrooms are available. I welcome people for a minimum of two weeks, I favor requests that offer me even longer times.

    I only speak Italian, but I also gladly host people who accept this even if they don't know my language. I live here alone but fortunately good company is never lacking, I always have friends and collaborators who accompany me during the day and also in the evening to be in company and talk together over a good dish and a good glass of wine. We will almost always eat meals prepared with our products and those of companies in our network.
    ==========
    Vivo in una piccola fattoria con le capre, facciamo formaggi, e offriamo e scambiamo cassette di frutta e verdura biologica. Non sono un'azienda, il lavoro in fattoria e' interamente su base volontaria, e si basa su scambi con altre realta' come la nostra che sono qui nel territorio.

    Sono disponibili camere con bagno privato. Accolgo persone per un minimo di due settimane, favorisco le richieste che mi offrono tempi più lunghi ancora.

    Parlo solo Italiano, ma ospito volentieri anche persone che accettano questo pur non conoscendo la mia lingua. Vivo qui da solo ma fortunatamente la buona compagnia non manca mai, ho sempre amici e collaboratori che mi accompagnano nelle giornate e anche nelle serate per stare in compagnia a parlare insieme con un buon piatto e un buon bicchier di vino. Mangeremo quasi sempre pasti preparati con i prodotti nostri e delle aziende della nostra rete.
