  • Description

    Hi host, we are Savy (he/they 🏳️‍⚧️from Elba Island) and Alessandra (she/her from Milan).

    We are:
    A chill and respectful married couple, on a trip to learn as much as possible about permaculture, community life and eco projects.

    We are the type who love treasure hunting at the thrift store and enjoy collecting trinkets by the shore. We surely have too many tea varieties and pottery.
    We feel cozy reading tarots and coffee/tea leaves for fun!
    Alessandra is really good at connecting with people, I'm more introvert but I enjoy to be useful for the community.

    As your guests:
    We'll be really glad to cook a variety of vegan/vegetarian recipes from all around the world and also bake bread and pastries.
    If you provide us the necessary we can organize an amazing aperitivo for everyone, with fingerfood and cocktails (alcohol free as well!).

    We also expect to work hard and get muddy, I grew up on a farm and already experienced volunteering many times. Alessandra enjoyed charity work before and she is really enthusiast about learning new skills as carpentry, so please consider teaching us whatever you need. 
    Alessandra is very strong and resourceful, I will instead need a little rest between one physical work and another. I tend to push myself hard to compensate my disability, but I'm learning how my limits really works.

    We are a crafty and creative too!
    Some hosts like to use our skills for art projects, we’ve also created the design of their logos, t-shirts and flyers! We can paint murals, decorate furniture etc.
    We are also able to create flowers decorations, fantasy costumes and makeup for party and events.

    Insight:
    We are exploring Denmark to find an actual opportunity to live a good life.
    Alessandra would gladly teach languages (ITA/ENG) and attend courses to gain more handy and creative skills.
    I also want to work to gain the stability to start a school in Denmark.

    ***Just so you know***
    I am a trans man and I'm finally on the list to get my top surgery in Italy. I will know when it comes the time one month before circa so we will let you know with anticipation if the permanence time will change because of this. It could be on December 2026 or even years later so we decided not to stop our life in the meantime.
