Descrição
please note. We host people only per 1 or 2 weeks.
Hi! We are Emanuela (Italian 1970) and Peter (Swiss 1966)... and Nespolo and Mora (our cats).
In 2019 Peter and I bought a beautiful little stone house (which is about 150 years old) and a small piece of land (300sqm) in the beautiful town of Montecrestese.
The intention was and is, to live more soberly, to use our hands to create and self-produce what we need, to value relationships and exchange with people and with the wonderful Nature that surrounds us ... to try to be more and more independent from an economic, cultural and social system in which we do not recognize ourselves. But above all to participate consciously in Life.
We had to make some adjustments to our "vision", because things don't always work out the way we want them to. The most important thing I have learned is not to feel guilty and to appreciate what I have.
What can you learn from us ?
You can learn the way we have chosen to live, see its merits and demerits, successes and failures ... Perhaps to better understand how you would like to live.
Life is movement and fluidity. ☀️
What do we expect from you?
Help and sharing in all activities: home, garden, harvest, transformation, reorganizing spaces, wood, feeding and playing with cats ...
What you will find.
Moments of tranquility and beauty.
Lots of places to explore or "meditate."
Neighbors project of younger people.
Please note: I work from 9.30am till 2.30pm in Domodossola and Peter works from October till June in Bern, CH. So during these months he is mostly in Bern. It means that in winter you will be often alone.
