Description
Hello beautiful families!
We are Lia (our joyful little girl), Jorge, and Desiree, an international family with big dreams and open hearts.
Jorge is a Peruvian chef who has lived and worked abroad for many years. Desiree is Italian and has a background in museums and art galleries, both in Italy and internationally.
When our daughter was born, everything changed: our mindset, our rhythm, and our priorities. Now, we feel it’s time for a new chapter, but like many, we’re still figuring out where to begin.
After years of life in big cities, we deeply feel the need to reconnect with nature, slow down, and live more intentionally. We want to expand our practical skills, learn from others, and explore new ways of living. We believe that meeting inspiring people will help us reset and refocus on what truly matters.
We’re both hard-working and hands-on. Desiree is creative, practical, and not afraid of power tools! When she’s outdoors, she lights up with joy and curiosity. Jorge, of course, is a great cook, but he’s also a fan of cleanliness and order.
Lia is full of life, showing already a strong carachter and determination. She enjoy arts and crafts and playing outdoor.
We’d especially love to connect with families who have children.
We’re open-minded, curious, and friendly, but we also value quiet moments and know how to respect others' space and privacy.
We’re all music lovers.
Desiree enjoys hiking, climbing, walking barefoot, rainstorms, vintage clothes, and flowers.
Jorge loves darts, dark chocolate, photography, speeding on his bike, and sipping mate.
Thanks for reading — we hope to meet you on our journey!

More details about your skills
Jorge is an experienced chef, he is able to cook any kind of meal (he is peruvian, and he lived in the Middles East for 12 years, where he learned different kind of cuisine). He is very good in precision jobs, he has a good eye for details and he can easily spend a whole day doing the same repetitive job (he has a zen soul).
Desiree studied art and is very creative. She has also some teaching experience in primary school and she definitely love kids. She is probably still one of them at heart :) she has some knowledge of woodworking and carpentry, she knows how to use a circolar saw, drills, and other power tools. She already had an experience abroad as volunteer in uk, helping a family building their eco-friendly house.
