  Description

  Hi! My name is Agostino (34), I live in a small seaside village called Lido dei Pini, about 1h south from Rome. Surrounded by greenery, it is known for its large pine forest that runs along a long stretch of free beach. Here, I manage a half a hectare rural property together with my father. with a swimming pool, a donkey (Caterina) and a bamboo building workshop for the non-profit I co-founded. Through participatory natural building we promote environmental education, social inclusion, space regeneration and artistic expression.
  
  I love travelling.
  After a period in London, working hard and learning English, I decided to explore the world and I went to California. Since then, for 8 years I lived, volunteered and worked between Italy, Mexico, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Colombia, UK, and Switzerland. Life brought me back to my hometown, from where I'm coordinating non-profit and working on the property.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  I travelled for 8 years and speak fluent English and Spanish, often I have friends visiting me from far abroad and I love it. I often go to concerts, exhibitions, cultural activities or social initiatives in Rome and around my town. I tend to be a social person, like to share and eat together with friends and family.
  I'm also happy to share my experience with bamboo and social projects.
  
  Finally, workawayers will spend time with my father, an authentic, generous Italian man from the South who used to own a restaurant in town and people usually fell in love with his food. He knows how to receive visitors and loves to do it, welcoming everyone in the warmest and most respectful way. He is probabily the most authentic italian experience you can have.
