  Dear Workawayers
  
  We are a family living in tuscany in the countryside. Situated near a small town called Pontedera, the next big cities are Pisa, Florence, Or Livorno.
  I'm Anna, half german and half malay and my partner Adam is half italian half colombian so we speak a lot of languages (English, German, Malay, Spanish, French, Portuguese and Italian) and have travelled a lot and lived in many different places.
  We have three daughters Suraya (13 years old) and Lalita Serena (9 yrs old) and Luciel is 4. We have moved to this place march 2020. it's a place with a lot of space outside where we are building and trying to grow a little paradise to host children and lovers of outdoor life. We are planning to finish our small pond, take care of hazelnut bushes and apple and wild cherry trees. We need help in growing our own vegetables Next to the house, cut and store the wood we need to keep us warm during the winter from the woods nearby. We have a dog strolling freely in the garden.
  Adam is very talented with music and plays all kinds of percussions, african and latin american mostly, and builds houses with natural materials, straw, earth, clay, lime, wood, hemp etc. together with other bricklayers and carpenters.
  Me, Anna, am quite focused on the upbringing and fulfilling needs of the kids. We help and co-created an Outdoor Education Kindergarden. I'm interested in loads of things and have gathered experiences in working with kids,teaching languages, circus, outdoor education skills, I’m learning about fruit trees, trimming and grafting and like sewing and creating things with my hands.
  Suraya the 13yr old is a Beautiful teen, into music, singing, doing homework, can cook and likes to be in her down space that she designs and keeps on trasforming
  Lalita is more the indoor kind, artistic lady with a lot of style and super talkative. Loves to draw and paint and dance and everything that is part of the feminine aesthetic artistic world.
  Luciel is just adorable and wild and free; has a strong will and is super funny to be around with.
  
  We have built an outdoor education place called “Manamandi” in the woods, 5-10min walk from the house, where there is always lots more to do.
  
  There is a big community with a lot of other families with very similar lifestyles nearby and we let our children get together all the time and help each other in our gardens, for the wood etc. and especially often host friends in camper vans in our yard and garden.

  Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

  We are a very intercultural family so we have a lot of things to share. I guess a lot of aspects of rural Italian life style and ecologic or permacultural thinking and living. I like to respect the rhythm kids have in their discovery of this world and not always push and impose my "responsable" and "important" adult world over their enthusiastic ways of approaching life and everything they meet. I encourage and want them to feel free to express their feelings and thoughts...
  I would like to share and do some creative things with you as well, if you feel like. Share recipes (e.g. how to make fermented veggies, jams, pickles etc.) or do some music or acrobatics, juggling. Languages. Adam has "golden hands" as they say in italian and can help you build or repair anythings you are also interested in. And we are especially interested in learning from you.

  This year we want to do a lot of Olive picking with you guys.
  This could either be from abbandoned Olive Groves, where we mostly cut of the very high braches and collect by hand, or olive orchards where you can work with the Machinery; and that's where we mainly ask for your help. Otherwise we Will ask you to partecipate in the wellbeing and the everyday Life's needs of yourself and the family. Maybe from time to time I would like you guys to help me construct some Little wooden constructions for the kindergarten in the Woods.

  Alojamiento

  We have a Camping Car that is parked nearby with a small toilet and a stove to make tea or coffee. Our kitchen, the bathroom are always at your disposition but we think it is also important that you have your own space so I think the Camping Car is the best solution. You can see the inside and outside of it in the pictures.
  
  We eat a lot of vegetables from the area raw and cooked, pasta and other cereals once in a while I go to an organic and ethical market. It is not at all a problem for us to respect religious or ethical rules or reasons for nutrition. So Halal food and vegans, kosher or "everything eaters" are welcome and will find a mother who is open to cook anything and who is very keen to get to know your favorite food aswell.

  Algo más...

  I think it is very important to like the countryside and have some Outdoor and "working with the hands" skills...if you come to stay with us. Pisa and Florence are easy to reach by train and we have a small lake nearby and near Livorno there are some nice beaches..
  Pontedera or San Miniato are small towns nearby and I usually don't go to the big towns but have enough cultural program around the neighbourhood because we have a big community of musicians, friends and alternative thinking people around. In our community surroundings we have enough indoor and outdoor space where we meet up with friends and afternoon or evening activities such as Circus, Choir singing and free and improvise music around the fire and know nice places where to get to concerts, theater or cinemas as well. On many weekdays there are nice farmer Markets nearby where I usually go once a week to get fruit, meat, vegetables that don't grow in our garden and for the fun to meet people and friends by chance...
