Alcantara Eco Project

At the moment I live in a wooden house with an external dry toilet made in ecobuilding.
I can offer a place in a tent and meals cooked with love, (I love cooking ;) !)
The project is still at the beginning and wonderfully in progress, you could help me with many small activities such as maintaining the vegetable garden, fruit trees, planting trees, sowing, pruning, grafting, harvesting and processing, and in constructions with natural materials, from restoring a ruin, create common spaces, small arrangements to make everything more welcoming and enjoyable for everyone!

At the moment I can offer accommodation in a tent, you can camp on the property or in summer sleep in a hammock under the olive trees.
In the land there is electricity and fresh, drinkable water. A compost toilet, outdoor shower with hot water.
There is an external kitchen for the warmer periods and one inside the house.

HI! We are Rani (dog) Agni (cat) and Francesca (me). We live in the beautiful and green Alcantara Valley, at the foot of Mamma Etna and a few steps from the river Alcantara.
I am originally from northern Italy and after graduating I traveled for a few years mainly in Asia, fascinated by the incredible culture and philosophy of those places and travelling, travelling, in 2013 I discovered Sicily, immediately falling in love with the Island and finally feeling at home.
Last year, I fulfilled my dream of living in nature by purchasing this beautiful land, full of olive trees, prickly pears and fruit trees.
