=============
Hello, I'm Margherita , 59 years old, I live in Sicily, near Etna vulcano and Taormina, in a lemon Grove in front of the Jonian sea. In this place there Is my Cultural Association" . The help I Need Is in mainteining harmony around the Cultural Association "" that Is inside the old fashion sicilian country house. This Is a quite place away from the city , very calm in Winter and also in Summer even if the beach Is very crowdy. It's a family house where sometimes we host friends Who come for our activities or for the Sea with the Campervans , Tents, or in the Mobilhome .
Especially in spring/ Summer/automn the help I Need Is gardening (collect dry leaves, cut the lawn, water plants and flowers), walk and take care of my big dog Dudù ( strong helpers) , cleanings painting ,fixing, little buildings .
I offer hospitality in change of only 3 hours help ( usually it's 5-6 hours work) x 5 days and 2 days rest and you provide to buy and cook your food .
This Is an Independent hospitality for people that like to be helpful and have a lot of free time to rest ,visit or It could be pleasant for volunteers that come to relax and also concentrate (write a book, walk, work on internet ,make photos, read books, study ecc).
Of course shall be a pleasure for me to share meals with you sometimes , and you are invited to participate for free to my Dancetheatre , Feldenkrais organic and healthy movement and traditional dance classes .
At the Moment I prefer to host couples or two Friends , I prefer a long stay and especially volunteers who travel with they own car.
=============
It Is not a community or an ecological project. I live here and in Winter I work in My Feldenkrais and Dancetheatre studio . In Summer the holistic activities are closed but you can enjoy the Sea and visit around Etna nature and art.
If you want to visit ,public transport Is not available, I can bring you and pick you up to the Fiumefreddo di Sicilia Train station (7 kms far from home) that connects you to the main cities (Catania,Siracusa, Palermo, Messina). If you want to visit nature (Etna, Alcantara Gorges, Peloritani Mountains ) you need a car or pay a taxi.
I host you in a van with electricity, hot water and you have your own van, not shared with other volunteers . There Is a commun area with shared kitchen where you can cook when and what you want and a shared bathroom with the shower and hot water , and outside cold showers .
At 1 km and half you can find a village(Fondachello) with many bars, restaurants, pizzeria, you can drink good beer, and find many local tourists.
