Covid update : Finally after a long Year I am Heading to Italy to start this project , I have not been replying to any messages due to it being to difficult getting to travel.

I am after someone that has (building experience), I would like to get the House watertight.

I am a young South African Guy that has traveled the world and fallen in love with Italy.

I have recently purchase and old Stone house in the hills of Tuscany and now the big task come to renovate this old building to its former glory. It was build in 1603 and has not been live in for the last 80 years.

The former owner started the renovations but did not get far.

The plan is to do most of the renovations myself.

I do have a day job and work two months on two moths off. In my time off i will be at the property renovating it.
