Ciao everyone! My name is Dominik. I was born in Hungary and I am 27 years old. I decided two years ago to leave my life and flat in Budapest, and move to the beautiful Italian medieval city of Citta della Pieve.
Why did I decide to settle down in the middle of Italy? That's easy to answer: I have been dreaming of creating a community centre in the Italian countryside since I was a kid. After I graduated from my university studies in England (University of Warwick), I have been working in many different areas: culture, film, private healthcare, marketing, journalism, car engineering, art trading. So I was there thinking why not do all of them at the same time? Well, apart from car engineering really, because I still don't know anything about cars.
So here I am, working on the project, constantly surrounded by lovely people to help me. But where am I? The estate – which is approximately 2 kilometres from the city centre of Citta della Pieve – consists of a 450 square meter villa, some side-buildings and 5 hectares of land. There is more than 300 olive tree and, all kind of fruit trees. I am in the process of renovating the side buildings, to make an art studio for residents, a small bistro, and I will start creating a camping to host travellers from all around the globe. The olives are usually harvested and pressed into oil in October, from the fruits I make grappa and all kinds of jams.

Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje
I live in the Umbrian hills, just next to the border of Tuscany. The city itself is magnificent with around 9000 citizens, and especially lively in the summer period and on weekends. I don't live here for too long, so you can discover the area and Italian culture with me. A part from that, I speak hungarian, english, french and italian, so if you feel like learning any of these languages, you're very welcome to. On the other side, I have been writing short stories and a novel, and I was always interested in all kinds of creative projects.
Ayuda
Daily 4-5 hours of help would be very helpful. You can of course do what you feel like and what suits you most. There are many things to do around the house, however, I always try to give out work that suits people. If someone has a talent in arts why make them work in the garden when they can beautifully decorate the house?
But here are my plans to get a better image:
1. Transform the outside buildings to a community space with a bar, an art studio, a kitchen and bedrooms.
2. Improve the vegetable garden for self-sustainability
3. Clean up underneath the olive trees and weed the garden
4. Make the house comfy to live and bring some art into it

Alojamiento
The house consists of 4 floors, from which 3 are rented out. I almost always have a friend around in the house, but I live here with my dog, Hugo. In case there are too many people in the house, you might have to share a room with someone.
I love cooking, and I usually cook for myself. I will provide you as much food, as I usually do for myself. However, you will be free to use everything you find around the house. I am not vegan, neither vegetarian, but I often cook meat-free dishes. Eggs are frequent, as I keep chickens.
Algo más...
It's quiet easy to get here, as almost all national trains stop in the nearby train station (Chiusi-chianciano Terme).
And there are many many places to visit by train too:
-Perugia: 50 minutes by train
-Rome: 1 hour 30 minutes by train
-Florence: 1 hour 20 minutes by train
-Orvieto: 30 minutes by train.
There are bikes in the garage, and I also have a car to pick you up from the train station.
