Description
Hi, I'm Roberto, an easy-going guy and hard worker, living in my home. I like open green spaces and animals, especially dogs. I've got one (Skittle) :D You can see it on my profile photo (2020). I'm looking for a quiet place where I can find a bit of inner peace, and friends who share daily life, work and happy moments.

More details about your skills
My working experience began years ago as a seller in the family's outdoor furniture shop then I opened my own coffee shop that I had been managing for several years (7) before opening my own farm where I worked for 4 years. My farm's main activity was snail breeding, growing vegetables, and beekeeping. I also know how to prune grapevine, olive trees, and hedges and take care of green generally, general Maintenance, hand works and animal care. I spent about 2 years as a plumber and I know a bit the basic electrical systems. I've been managing a petrol station for 4 years.
Edit: Then I left the gas station to spend some time, about 5 months, as a volunteer (housekeeping and meal service) in a Buddhist institute, and then I went to Spain to do the Camino de Santiago, from Seville to Finisterre (beyond Santiago) it took me about 2 months. Now I'm still working at the gas station to save some money and be able to travel oversea to work on some farm/community to share daily life and do new experiences!
Edit 2:After work in 2024, I went to Ireland to take my best journey ever!! From Belfast to Limerick in a solo tent by foot. It was an amazing experience that took me 4 months. I also work in a horse farm for 2 weeks!
