Description
Hi everyone,
I am Isabella from Italy, 28 years old.
I have been an activist and participant in a collective community-farming project next to Florence, in a very big agroecological farm with thousands of olive trees, vineyards, chickens, pigs, a vegetable garden, bees and many other activities. We were producing many organic products, like wine, extra vergin olive oil, honey and bread for our self consumption and selling in local farmers markets in Florence. I was professional baker at the farm, I love baking sourdough bread and focaccia!
I love nature and farming, travelling, camping into the wild for weeks, being part of communities, partying, singing, and most of all, cooking!
Since one year I've started bike packing from Italy to Turkey and beyond with my life companion and friend.
We are looking for opportunities in community projects and/or farming to stop cycling for some time for the winter and spend some time in a peaceful and natural environment with other people.Interests
