  Description

  Hi everybody!!
  I’m Simona, an italian artist living in this island since 2004. I ‘m in love with nature and i work with natural dye using plants and flowers i collect here in my workshop next to the house. I’m living in a very typical and old country house and running a beautiful finca in the middle of Formentera with a big aloe vera plantation.
  There’s a lot of plants and land to take care and I often need help to refurbish the old house.
  I ‘d like to host nice people who loves to enjoy and take care of nature and people alla round . People with experience in traditional and old techniques of refurbishment and a sustenible way to recicle water are very welcome.
