  Descrição

  My name is Anna, I am Swiss, was a translator, then a painter, then a sculptor. Living since 12 years in Italy, after 18 years in South Africa. I speak German, English, French and Italian. I want to concentrate on the garden now and my studies, therefore some help, passion for nature and knowledge are welcome. Living in big cities I chose consciously to withdraw into nature and live a simple healthy quality life, where I take care of myself and my garden in a holistic way. Beauty, care, order, true communication and respect are dear values to me.

  Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado

  We are not far away from Pisa, Lucca, Florence if you are into culture.
  Hiking possibilities (Apuani mountains and 5 Terre)
  Pietrasanta is a lovely art town with many restaurants, shops and cafés. and only15 minutes (by car) away. There is a train station in Pietrasanta.
  
  For swimming, you have the sea (15 minutes by car) or the river pools down the road (walking distance).
  
  You can practice your English, French or German.
  
  Besides, I love gardening and growing some of my own food, music, yoga, Chi Gong and metaphysical and philosophical matters, quantum physics, dance, photography, hiking and swimming and of course, interesting discussions and exchange.

  Ajuda

  I would need help with:
  
  - Cutting grass with weed eater
  - Cutting small trees, stacking wood
  - Weeding, composting, cleaning flower beds etc
  - Sanding and revarnishing of window shutters
  - Preparing veggie garden & planting
  - Cooking
  - Cleaning windows
  - Helping with demolishing shack
  
  Sometimes we will work together, sometimes you will work on your own. There is also the possibility to look after my place on your own when I am leaving for a few days. So feeling at ease living alone in the house (there are neighbours though)

  Acomodação

  I lam living on my own in a typical Tuscan Rustico up in valley surrounded by marble mountains in the MIDDLE OF A CHESTNUT FOREST away from the crowds (I do have very nice Italian neighbours that are very helpful).
  
  There is no bus connection where I live , so if you want to get around in your free time, it would be good to have your own car (next village is 3/4 of an hour's walk). But I will pick you up at the station when you arrive.
  
  Since I am vegetarian and try to live a simple conscious but quality lifestyle, the food will be mainly organic and vegetarian. I love cooking, having a good meal, a glass of wine and a good discussion. But if you feel inspired to cook, you are welcome. Two meals offered per day, LUNCH AND DINNER.
  
  You will be given a beautiful spacious room on the first floor, where we will share the bathroom. There is also an outside shower if you like cold showers like me. No heating though, I heat only with a wooden stove downstairs in the kitchen.

  Algo mais...

  Best for you would be to have a car, so you stay independent and can get out and explore, since there are no bus connections up where I live.
