    ****************************
    Hey there,
    we are a family of 5: me (SIlvia), Claudio (my husband) and our 3 sons aged 9, 5, 2,5 (plus cat Flipi, dog Nina and some chickens).

    Since 2020 we moved back from Berlin to Calabria, pushed by our will and our need to feel closer to Nature and to go back to our roots. Almost a year ago we have bought a land about 1 He in which we have started our veggie garden, we are cleaning the wood from blackberries bushes (really a lot), working on restoring the old house, pulling out all the garbage we "inherited". In the meantime we sleep in our camper while we work and live here.
    The basic "facilities" such as a compost toilet and hot (fire system) shower are already built, but we are in the process of improvement.

    The place where we live is surrounded by wood, at the same time we are 5 minutes walk from the village. Close by are some streams and 20 minutes by car you can reach Soverato, the nearest city on the sea. Not far from here is Serra San Bruno, a very beautiful and mystical place on the Serre Mountain, close by Mongiana, small village with a history that bring us back to the House of Bourbon-Two Sicilies.

    We try to eat as much as possible from the garden, wild herbs and we are learning about mushrooms. We do not to use chemicals and we are happy to experiment alternative methods to grow our food naturally while regenerating the soil.
    We still have much to improve and to learn... and of course we are glad to have some other couple of hands ready to enjoy the land.

    We are in the process of learning as much as possible about long conservation of fruits and vegetables both as jam, bain-marie or drying. We like to bake our own bread and pizza using the natural yeast as long as we have enough time to dedicate. We are also interested in learning about wild plants, and their use either as food, infusion herbs, wellness in its full meaning.

    Our kids are at home (that means that we homeschool!) and we take care of them. We read, have fun with music, play with clay and go out for work/playing and so on.

    We need help with gardening, restoring buildings, spend quality time with the kids, cooking, chopping etc.
    We can be working at different tasks together or autonomously, but we are always there for teaching or learning with you.
    We would also like to have some help with the house holding that can be laundry, cleaning, cooking, and so on.
    We'd love to host people who like to spend time with kids in a creative way. We have no TV and we also try to keep our family as much screen-free as possible :)
    We imagine to share our time with you in a flexible way. We can talk together beforehand about our weekly goals and the relative tasks.

    Alojamiento

    At the moment we can offer a tent and sleeping bag, to be built outside or in the house if the weather is too cold or wet. We have plenty of space if you want to park your camper van or caravan.
    We are happy to share our food, but if you are a big family we could ask you to contribute somehow.

    We like to discover new recipes and get suggestions. Our diet is mostly vegetarian and we avoid trash food. If you have special dietary restrictions, please let us know in advance.

    Algo más...

    We can lend you a bike or give you a lift when possible. The seaside as well as the mountains are just a few Km away. If you have a car you can also enjoy visiting the region: since we are in the middle of it, you can easily go around in a reasonable amount of time. The bus service is available in the village.
