  Descrição

  Hi there, I am a single mom of a beautiful 10 years old girl, a dog and two cats, with a convivial and self sufficient lifestyle. More animals are to come, also depending on your help!
  
  We live in a straw bale house on an acre of land facing the lake in a vibrant Italian village. The plot hosts 150 fruit trees, exotic and autoctonous, medicinal herbs and of course a ton of edible wild greens. I still am to set up a huge compost facility and a small vegetable garden. I am working on hosting monthly a local farmers' market.
  
  I used to lecture at university students teaching Food Studies, Italian Food Culture and Politics of Food. The name I use since 15 years now is Dafne, the tree-woman. I also am the author of 4 books on natural living and specifically food, I have been woofing long ago and kept studying the practicalities of ecology since 20 years now. I still teach foraging classes, being the author of a bestseller on the subject.
  
  But my aim altogether at this stage of life is just to live, farm, share mainly in the local gift economy and write. I am also a big expert on sourdough baking. I believe in the importance of animals as part of a farm's ecology and do not believe in the vegan approach, although I am extremely selective when it comes to animal protein consumption.
  
  Our place faces a huge beach on a major lake with the clearest of waters (the reserve of drinkable water for Rome), the village has plenty of lovely restaurants and aperitivo cafés, 50 min away from Rome but immersed in unbelievalble peacefulness.

  Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

  We live in a truly vibrant Italian village nested on the northern bank of the lake so with south exposition, a stunning microclimate suited for citrus and exotic fruit, extremely clean waters (the reserve of drinkable water for the city of Rome) and a sandy soil so the lake is cristal clear. We are also inside a natural park which is preserved from all polluting activities. The place is well suited for bike lovers, and whoever wants to take a good breath of real Italian lifestyle on an everyday basis, indulging at a cafe with a view on the sunset to write some verses, or attending an unexpected open air jam session, strolling at the craftmans market etc.
  
  I am extremely knowledgeable myself on sourdough in all it's aspects, eco-building, permaculture, wild food etc. Living with us will be a way to naturally absorb this knowledge.
  
  Me and my daughter are opened persons, willing to exchange and to put you in touch with the right people around. I am eager to learn form you and to expose my daughter to english and frenchspeaking people.

  Ajuda

  I need help with farm work during mornings until early afternoon. This can involve some harder duties and building skills. I need some baby sitting occasionally ideally from somebody with a drivers' license. I am happy to share lunches and to provide goods for your dinners which shall seldom be shared I believe since I feed my daughter early and put her to bed at 8 pm, and need that precious time to chat with her and process her days.

  Acomodação

  I can host 2 people in a comfy room with a shared bathroom and the use of a separate kitchen (the latter is under construction so not immediately available). I do expect a minimum of 5 hours of support on weekdays. Weekends are totally free for everybody.

  Algo mais...

  In this kind of exchange it is extremely important to get along, and a short video call might be a limited way to know each other: both parts shall be free to decline the agreement if needed, letting each other know a week in advance. I encourage you to make your way to what you would like to visit or experience, and organize your free time autonomously, or even use the plot for your personal farming experiments.
