    Travelers will have the opportunity to immerse themselves in a reality where traditions and atavistic culture are still very present. They will have the opportunity to experience glimpses of life, which unfortunately are increasingly being lost. They will know a territory rich in ancient history, land of nuraghi, domus de janas, giants' tombs, traditions and folklore, the agro-pastoral world, its typical cuisine and the sacred hospitality that Sardinians reserve for visitors.

    I have a very large house in Orgosolo and a small cottage in the countryside with a small plot of land that periodically require maintenance work (masonry, plumbing, renovation ,ristructaration and care of the land, sproning of the trees, cleaning of the land, cutting the grass).
    I world love to build o yurt but I don’t know how to do it, is there somebody who could help me to make my dream real?
    I like to work in a team, this allows me to have an extra charge that alone i can't reach. I like dealing with different people and experiences, learning about new cultures and relating to them.

    Ho una casa grandissima ad Orgosolo ed una piccola casetta in campagna con un piccolo appezzamento di terreno che richiedono periodicamente lavori di manutenzione ( lavori di muratura, idraulica ,ristrutturazione e cura del terreno: potatura, pulizia del terreno taglio dell’erba…)
    Desidererei costruire una yurta, ma non so come fare, qualcuno mi può aiutare a realizzare questo mio sogno?
    Mi piace lavorare in team, questo mi permette di avere una carica extra che da sola non riesco a raggiungere.
    Mi piace confrontarmi con persone ed esperienze diverse ,conoscere nuove culture e relazionarmi con esse.
