Descripción
We are Mathilde and Jacopo, a couple in their 30s passionate about permaculture, crafts, music and much more. We speak italian, spanish, english and french. A few years ago, we renovated a small studio which is part of a big stone house dating 1700, in which you will be staying, located in a small village on the hills of northern Tuscany at 30 minutes driving distance from La Spezia where you can easily reach Cinque Terre and other breath taking seaside locations by train. There are many secret spots in the woods too which we will be happy to tell you about if you prefer quieter, fresher river baths, which are the highlight of Lunigiana's wonders in summer, as well as the Apuan Alps and of course all of the delicious traditional food the popular culture and restaurants around can offer! We suggest you travel on wheels as the area is not very well served by public transport.
Hope to see you soon and feel free to get in touch if you have questions!

Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje
What we can offer is an immersive experience on the vibrant Italian culture, and specifically the subculture which is animated by the love of nature, the rediscovery of our national identity through the love of quality lifestyle and good food, hard work, and beauty.
Our skills are permaculture applied to agriculture, macramè crafts, cooking, woodcrafts, and even some taxidermy and bones cleaning too if you don't mind the odd and metal music related aesthetics ;)
You can partecipate to the courses we offer to our guests at the resort we work at if you wish: making a macramè plant hanger, making ravioli, gardening and more...

Ayuda
We are looking for a person or couple to help us with some simple tasks like watering the vegetable plot, making sure the chickens are locked in in the evening (we have 7 hens and a cock) and feeding the cats (3) when we will end work too late to do it ourselves. You will be shown everything in detail and have access to our garden for you meals.
The amount of helping time we'll expect from you will be below average on the platform, but it is crucial that you be present everyday except on wednesday and thursday to lock the chickens in as there are foxes and other predators around.

Alojamiento
You will stay in our medieval-looking studio located in the centre of Genicciola. It use to be the village's butchery (hence the name il macello) but we completely transformed it and gained some room by taking the tiles and concrete away and taking its walls back to their original charm. You can still see the rusted hooks on the arched ceiling thou, which actually came quite handy. There is a pull out queen-size bed, above it a cosy wooden platform, you can make it your chill time space. There is everything you need to cook and shower, it is rustic and minimal but you will especially enjoy and appreciate the freshness that thick stone walls can offer in the summer heat, and the shade of the park nearby where you can spend some time reading/doing your thing or socialise with our lovely neighbours.
Algo más...
House rules: please be careful when cooking of handling materials that could stain the floor as it is in stone too, then very difficult to clean.
We suggest you travel by car or similar as public transports here aren't the best. Roads are very steep and narrow so if you plan on coming by bike be ready and brave.
