About Me
Hello I'm Luca 33 years old Italian. I'm a quite simple and humble but with quite a lot ambitious in life!
I'm a nature lover and I love to travel too. My dream is to buy some land to farm and living in armonooy with nature, working in organic and sustainable way with permaculture design and try to be as much as self sufficient as possible. I'm working on this project for a while, studying for it, doing woofing and learning from my gardens, others people or through courses.
Now I'm travelling across Asia almost all by land until I will reach my own country. I have started in Timor east and now I'm in Nepal. While travelling through all these different countries and cultures I hope and want to learn from the local people the way of farming, building with sustainable material and them way of life. So if I can learn from you or just share a moment of your life, culture or a story would be amazing. I'm willing to learn anything from farming, building, taking care of animals, cooking, brewing, herbal remedies or whatever could be helpful on a self sufficient life.
