    Currently looking for hosts in Sicily/ southern Italy

    Friendly, warm and relaxed individual who loves being outside and exploring and frolicking in nature. I enjoy the company of adults and playing with children and animals.

    I'm currently living in Italy, on the road traveling... I hope to spend feb and march in SouthernItaly.Im interested in meeting people along the way, continuing to improve my very small amount of italian, practice french if i have the occassion, as well as and practice and help out on interesting projects.

    Some things that I'm interested in( but in no means limited too!) building cobb/ clay/mud houses etc, other building and construction in general, social justice, organic/ regenerative farming, working with horses, basket weaving , ceramics, mosiac... and more!


    I value a simple lifestyle and am happiest when I can have a mix of both social and solitary, and ideally I can have my own space, with a desk, and is separate from family/ group of volunteers- this allows me to maintain the balance of social and indépendant needs.

    I adore eating eating fresh foods and where I can be in nature and near water ( I love being able to bathe and swim in either the ocean or a river). Id love to visit workaways that have access to trails be it day walks or otherwise, I love to walk every day.
    .
    I'm comfortable working independently or with others and consider myself to have good initiative for tasks.

    I'm interesting in most kinds of projects but am not looking to be a sole carer of someones kids- I'm so happy to help out/play/share and to be around kids, I really enjoy their company, and love to play,but don't want to be a sole carer for the whole time of my stay, but happy with a mix.
