    Description

    Hi my name is Marco, I am 37 yo and I am from Napoli, five years ago I bought a land in the hearth of Sardinia, on a mountain called Goceano.
    Last June after 14 years of travelling I finally decide to settle down and make roots in the land that i got few years before.
    My plan is to create a sustainable farm, to be self sufficient and keep as far as I can from supermarket, right now I am half way trough, still lots of work needs to be done but I am happy to finally live in a forest with my animals and my plants
    Sardinia is a magical place, this island is taking care of me has it was my mum and I feel really grateful to live here, it will offer to you everything you need and you will be amused among so much beauty.
