Description
Hello, my name is Daniele, my intention is to live connected to Nature, to be more self-sufficient and to enjoy every aspect of the beauty that surrounds us.
I practice many difference arts in order to become more and more complete. Therefore there are always many projects going on, regarding self sufficiency, or health of the spirit and the body.
My place is surrounded by olive trees, therefore October is harvesting season. I produce bio-dynamic extra virgin oil in a stone mill. The rest of the year, we follow the seasons, collect fruits and plants, transforming them, taking care of the vegetable garden and also working leather in my atelier. I'm a master of leather, I can produce shoes, bags, belts, carpets and much more. Now I'm more focused on building a bathroom and a new leather atelier.
We enjoy all forms or art. I play guitar, and I often like to play and sing with friends around the fire in the evening. Some friends have similar projects in the surrounding, therefore we often collaborate and many travelers are also passing by, sharing the family spirit.
It's been almost 10 years that we accept workawayers from all over the world and we are super grateful to everyone coming here and bringing a part of their hearts. Being part of workaway community is an incredible experience.

Accommodation
The place is quite simple, there is one house divided in 3 parts, for sleeping there is a trailer set outside the house.
There is also a possibility to sleep in a tent or if you travel with your own caravan there is a space to park it.
There is a compost toilet outsider the house, and there is a bathroom insider the house built ricently.
I eat mostly vegan, mainly from the vegetable garden or the local market, we avoid industrial food.
There is limited WiFi thanks to hotspot connection with my telephone and there is electricity by solar panel
Spirit of adaptation is needed, but once you feel connected with nature everything seems flows easily.
