Description
Hello! My name is Matteo, I'm 32yo Southern Italy
I lived in Italy, Poland, México and french west Indies, for a while.
I am a nurse who falled in love with bicycles, travels and pizza!

I quit my job at the hospital few years ago to travel and enjoy life more so I moved abroad, and after many different jobs, I became a pizzachef.
But I worked and volunteered as a ceramist, animal sitter, receptionist, handy man and touristic guide too.

I used to live in a Mountain retreat in Tuscany for few months and I still miss the feeling of being surrounded by the forest something. That's why Is Always something I always look for.

I'd like to find a place where I can be helpful and learn more about
off-grid living, eco-building, permaculture and self-sustainability and I also wish to learn about sailing down the road.

easygoing, open minded, calm, self-sufficient
Fluent in English, Spanish and I'm learning french.

COVID UPDATE: I'm fully vaccinated and boosted.
.
Thanks and good luck everybody!

Matteo is a great worker and adapted to learning new building skills very quickly to a good standard. I think it took him time to get used to the house rules but he did in the end.
His dogs are lovely and calm companions. They did excrete anywhere they felt the need to which was an extra thing to clean up.
Overall, we enjoyed the energy he brought… read more

Matteo is an explosive person and full of life.
Coliving with him was more complex just because he tends to be messy.
In his work experience he was very trustful, helpful and collaborative, slight tendency to manage alone.
He was also full of energy and never say no to hard work.
He has two little dogs who are adorable and very docile, in truth I… read more
