Description

Sometimes I think about my life as a big batch of dough and I still have my hands fully sunk in it.
I love all that comes from life: I studied IT at high school, then journalism and literature at uni; worked as a social worker and developed three associations, a uni sport team, some freelance educative projects in schools, then I loved very much and then my body wise me I wasn't happy anymore so I traveled and worked harder with my hands, and I loved again and deeper and I cooked and worked as a baker and tasted and left, landed to work with homeless people and spend all my free time writing.
And now, well, now I have my home, my love, my little humble things and I don't want more. But I love the process that brought me where I am, and especially that feeling you feel when you recognize yourself. You never stop learning.

I stayed at Chris and Gerry’s farm for two weeks, just during the Christmas time. The place is awesome, my room was inside the house and very comfy and warm and I really enjoyed to stay both inside and outside working. I couldn’t have asked for more, sincerely, they welcomed me so warmly and they took care of me as another member of the family so, … read more

We enjoyed his company from the beginning and found him very easy to have around. He is a very kind and hardworking man who is respectful and kind to people and animals … read more

I stayed at this project for 5 months. The house is sited in a wonderful area where the hills start to grow in mountains, just in front of the Catalan sacred mountain Canigou. From there you can reach the village in a good 50 minutes walk, but if you like to be in the nature, stay with a lot of animals and enjoy the outdoor you don't really feel … read more

I am Italian and cane here directly from Scotland to learn about horses, and Daniela teached me everything she could in the time we have had. She was so kind and warm, I felt extremely at home and I lived at the ranch as at home. Horses were my best friend and I enjoyed every moment of work, learning and taking care of them. I will ever take with … read more
