summer helpers needed in little village of trulli, Italy

Infos

• 

  Description

  We have a little village of trulli (special rock houses typical of Puglia area) where our association manage to organize activities that relate with health (yoga, shiatsu, breathing, and much more), arts (painting, craft, patchwork and more) and recreation (summer camp, dance, events).
  We organize projects with schools in Italy and in other countries. Sometimes we have guests who come for small holidays.
  During the summer I'll be in the village with my 3 girls (15 years, 13 and 3.5 years), in September we plan to move back to Milan (where I come from) and I'll be going back and forth for the activities either in schools and in the village.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  This is a wonderful area of Italy, full of history and wonderful nature. It's charming in the summer as well in the other seasons of the year! Our projects, mostly the one with schools, are innovative and full of emotions. We exchange with children and realities of other countries. The teachers how come and teach our activities are all people very professional and with many skills, so staying here and collaborate is always a personal growing!
  We are in an area where farms are very high skilled and natural, we have great contacts with them and coming here could be also a chance for getting to collaborate also with them and learn new skills like, for example, hydroponic growth.

  Hébergement

  It depends on the time of the year you can come and which will be your activities.
  During summer you will have your own room in the main apartment where I live with my 3 children. In the other months of the year there will be a 2 rooms apartment (always in the trulli) with a bedroom, a living and a bathroom, independent with private open space. The heating is with stove.
  This is a kind of a wild area where we have many strays (cats and dogs) that show up for food...we take care of them outside of the house! Smoking is not allowed inside the structure!

  Autres infos...

  As I said , this is a nice area with many things to do and see in the surroundings. We are close to Alberobello, Ostuni, Cisternino, Locorotondo, Polignano. Selva Di Fasano is on a hill and from our village there is a beautiful view of the sea! 100m away there is the bus stop that brings you to Fasano and in 10 minutes walk you get in the center of Selva di Fasano where there are coffee shop, grocery shop and other bus stop. The best here is to have a car, I can manage to leave you mine, we need to talk about it! But can be done!
