Description
I am a retired Mountain Guide, living in a big house surrounded by a big garden and pool. I spend my time guiding people on the volcano, biking around Sicily and taking care of my organic vegetables. I like travel the world, for that reason I need someone who can take carfe of my house and dogs when I am travelling.
From my experience, I would preferably host people over 30 years. I like active people with have a sense of initiative.
All the buildings are non-smoking. No drugs allowed in any circumstance
I would very much appreciate if you reach out in Italian (or french) as I don't speak english.
