  Description

  Hello I am Luca, hiking guide, working in the lands of Etna volcano e the southern-east area of Sicily.
  
  I am based in Siracusa and I live in a house with some patches of land around, in the countryside, 11km away from the city center. The house is close to the Marine Protected Area of Plemmirio, with its cliffs, the costal trail and bays.
  
  Here is an excellent base to discover Siracusa and the life around and spending some good time with the local community (there is a group of ball-folk dance, a climbing gym, musicians)
  
  I am currently seeking for help for the month of January-February-March, with some help in the garden, simple maintenance tasks .and some housekeeping work in the house.
  I am happy to set a 3h work a day schedule for the works and I am pretty flexible. You can have the rest of the time for yourself to discover the town make connections with the local community and have a look around for day trips.
  
  Ideally looking for workers able to work by themselves, and with proactive spirit, but whenever I can I am on the field working as well. The job is not much, neither hard, but I like to make it done thoroughly.
  
  It's possible to reach the city by bike or by bus, and you can borrow my car if I am not using it.
  Here is an excellent base to discover Siracusa and the life around. There are difende activities you can join and groups with a a variety of interests.
  
  I am sharpening the knowledge of Outdoor Education and Wilderness Awareness.
  I am into natural medicine, self-development, non violent communication, tantra.
  I am quite, I like sincere and transparent people to relate with.
  I have been working and studying puppetry, and I feel happy to meet people that may have something to do with puppet theater.
  I 'd like to spend some of my time for a working in progress project to build a Lambe Lambe theater, a micro theater from the South American traditions, and any creative ideas or skillet you want to share are welcome.
  
  You are welcome to come with me for hiking/trekking on Etna of other destinations whenever is possible.
  
  I travelled backpacked and lived abroad when younger : the last 10 days I have used my traveling time for discovery by road trips in Italy with my beloved and brave Opel Corsa.
  I normally take 3 months during the summer and crossing Italy from Sicily to the Alps , taking the time take the time to enjoy wild camping, sharing time with local communities, going hiking and trekking.
  
  I am happy to share what I know and and learning from you.
  
  Artists, wood specialists and and people with building skills are also very welcome!
  This place need a touch in order to find is identity and develop its potential, any ideas and good vibes will be welcome with gratitude.
  
  The house is connected to the city by bus, and there is a stop 600 m far. You may possibly get in town anso riding the bike.I like to have time and space by myself and happy to have the people staying to have them too.
  
  
  You will have a room for yourself in the house.
  I can host families with their campervan if not too big. I can also set an extra tent in the garden if needed, and in the spring or summertime you can find it very enjoyable.
  Couple with little campervan are also welcome.
  I like to listen stories, bring yours.
  About board : let's find the way that can satisfies both of us!
  My preference is you buy and manage your own food for less hours of work, but we may look for a solution that suites at the best mine and your needs, and considering the possibility you get the food and cook by yourselves.
  
  Above all, kindness and respect.
  Truly yours,
  Luca
