Description
Ciao raggazzi! (Hello folks!)
We invite you to a unique and shurely challenging experience ;-)
As a family of 4 we moved to italy leaving a lot behind and also carrying a lot with us. Our boys are 14 and 12 yo and we are facing the challenges of these times in very respectful awareness - that's actually one of the reasons why we came here. The beauty and peace of the umbrian countryside is the other major aspect.
Living a slowly and peaceful life in the olive yards right at the edge of a little but lifely umbrian town is something that we choose to learn from. Having chicken, cats and parrots and facing the challenge of integration including the need of learning italian language.
The property is most beautiful with a stunning view over Tiber valley and some towns around us are waiting to be discovered.
We somehow quit the influenced of german media society, wanting to get them on a different track. Life is more precious than what they have been tought in school until now. Now we're in the italian countryside, we're strangers, very busy to getting along with the basics, so as language, culture, all day organization, integration...
Our benefit: PEACE.
We're living now a significant more peaceful life then ever before, and that's something.
We're still arriving here. For the boys it's a huge challenge getting used to changing circumstances also learning italian language, - they're doin a real good job. We have really nice neighbours and trying to learn from them. Most important word here is: "piano-piano" and that means very much like "slowly-slowly". Not only no use to push things - even no way to push things successfully! ;-) do what you can and let go. We're trying to learn this energy, loving the things that we do - doing the things that you love. Being slowly.
We have some things to share with you. Music, games, language, reflection, health... so a warm welcome if you feel like sharing this adventure with us for some time. Guess three weeks would be a good timescale for meeting up.
Whoever you are! Let us know what makes you want to come. We're interested in your personal input. May it be to the renovation project, the gardening disigning, and for shure helping the boys to get their feet on the ground.
Apart from learning italian language we're playing music and reflecting our personal progress together as possible. Feel free to join this. -

Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre
We're up in the hills of the Tiber valley just one hour from Rome. Lots of stunning nature, forrests, olives, a nature bird reservation of the Tiber lake d'Alviano. A lot of activities and tipical country life of italian small town. But a lifely one with bars and few shops and festivals in summer...We're going every week to the nearby lake of Bolsena for a swim.
