  Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

  At our little slice of Salento, cultural exchange happens naturally—through shared work, meals, and stories. Here’s what you can expect:
  
  Practice Italian (or our local Salentino dialect!) over garden-fresh meals.
  Learn about Puglia’s rural heritage: olive oil making, dry-stone walling, and folk traditions.
  🎶 Music & Creativity
  we love music have a studio recording and production in another location.
  Optional DJ workshops for curious minds (mixing basics, ambient soundscapes).
  
  Cook together using our harvest: vegan recipes meet Salento classics (think orecchiette with wild greens).
  Forage for edible plants or learn to preserve tomatoes "like nonna used to."
  What You Bring
  Your stories, skills, or hobbies
  A song, recipe, or tradition from your homeland to share around the fire.
  
  Evenings & Exploration
  Movie nights under the stars (documentaries, cult films, or your favorites).
  Trips to nearby festivals (from sagre to music events).
  
  We’re not just a farm—we’re a crossroads. Whether you’re teaching us Korean vegan dishes or learning to make ricotta from our neighbour, every day sparks something new.
  "Come as a volunteer, leave as family—with dirty hands, full hearts, and a few Italian curse words." 😉
