Country life in Tuscany

There is a shady and sleepy garden in the Tuscan hills, what was once a chicken coop has over time become a modest country house sheltered by trees which at the same time plays the role of an unusual 'perfectly messy' artistic and creative laboratory .

I need help for very short periods - simple garden maintenance and small repairs - and not additional work, so you will need to be as independent as possible with a predisposition for DIY. I'm looking for very rustic and easy-going guys. The situation is very spartan but the resources are sufficient to live on.

I don't have the financial means to satisfy everyone's wishes... So if you have "special needs" remember to bring them with you. So you'll be sure to find what you're looking for...
We eat what there is...

My description may seem a bit harsh to some, but I prefer to be clear and honest so as not to disappoint my and your expectations. Unfortunately I have noticed for some time that this place is much better suited to boys/men for various reasons - there is only one bathroom very basic available, which is located right in front of the caravans where it is possible to take a shower.

Viviano's farm is an amazing place. Everything is kinda magical, actually. The birds, the trees, the architecture and how the place is organized. From the moment you arrive, you're going to feel you are in an alternate world where the time goes by differently. Viviano is a big piece on this play, he's welcoming and make you feel at home. We used to spend long hours talking, eating awesome italian food, drinking wine and discussing the secrets of the universe and humankind. The experience was awesome.

Viviano Is amazing artist. The place he has is one of a kind. Work is not hard and creative. If you want to work hard then you need to ask for tasks yourself, otherwise the tasks are easy. Food was wonderful and I never was hungry. Viviano has lot's of knowledge about nature and history that he loves to share. The place is not 5* hotel but it's really close to nature and you have everything you need.
