Renovation and Land Management in Bella Italia (near Lake Maggiore), Piedmont, Val d'Ossola

Description

You’ve always wanted an active vacation: We’re looking for motivated volunteers to help renovate an old rustico and maintain the forest and countryside. Room and board provided for about 4–5 hours per day. Starting immediately through winter. You can help out for as little as a few days. A perfect balance between work and vacation! You’ll find plenty of peace and quiet, nature, hiking, and fun in the water. We’re Nino (the dog), Lena, 33, who works from home 70% of the time and does yoga, and Max, 36, a passionate construction worker. Have we piqued your interest? Then feel free to write to us :-)) Since everything here is still a work in progress, a lot of it is kept simple—or rather, in an outdoor camping-style setup. Many people love it that way! That means we have an outdoor shower and will soon have a composting toilet. (There’s a regular one in the rustic old wine cellar :-D) Accommodations depend on your needs and how many people are here at the moment: We have 2 rooms, 2 attics (better suited for larger groups), and space to set up tents...
