Descrição
We are renovating a farm in the heart of Tuscany, Italy, with some private room rent.
"We" is my husband, Austrian, and myself, German, we are in the 50ties.
The place is at the little village Orciatico, nearby Lajatico, the hometown of the famous Italian singer Andrea Bocelli. There are two old farmhouses, an all you can dream of a farm in Italy: olives, wine, fruit trees, vegetable garden.
A place to find yourself again. A wildly romantic place of power in the midst of nature.
The project provides a space for inspiration and invites you to relax. Get away from it all, take a deep breath and enjoy the unbelievably beautiful view over the Tuscan Hills. Simply immerse yourself in this idyllic spot and indulge in peaceful country life. It is also a paradise for wildlife – every day there is something new to observe here.
On the estate, we live a life of respect for nature. Our products are grown exclusively organic. We try to be careful with natural resources, and we produce and use solar energy from our roof’s solar system.Tipos de ajuda e oportunidades de aprendizado

Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado
The place is a very typical Tuscany farm. The village nearby is unique, with many elderly persons, a wonderful community where everyone helps each other. You can learn about the culture in Italy, we cook molstly Italian.
As we are German/Austrian, you will also get to know a bit central-european culture.
We are respectful to nature, and adopt our lifestyle accordingly.
We are peaceful people, we pay respect to other attitudes and opinions. Our lifestyle is quiet and calm.
I worked abroad for many year in the field of international development cooperation and got quite an insight in different cultures, which I am happy to share with. My husband is graphic designer and he can introduce to the world of art.Ajuda

Algo mais...
You should be a nature lover and adore silence, otherwise you will not love this stay.
This place is ideal for someone who loves to be with the nature, who loves reading or similar. There is Wlan in the house (but no TV).
Although there is a little village nearby, there is not much entertainment unless you bring it with you -:) There is a little bar in the village, mostly frequented by elderly persons.
There is a bigger village 10 minutes drive by car from here, or a little town 25 minutes drive from here. For all this, you would need to come with a vehicle. Without that, you can go hiking, walking in the forest behind the house.
Public transport: there are only few buses passing in the village (app. 2 per day). But they can bring you to a train station from where you can reach other places.
Food: there is rarely meat on the table. our vegetables we grow in our garden, all bio quality.Mais alguns detalhes
