The experience

I live on a small farm in Osório, RS, and what I value most is sharing experiences, learning new languages, and discovering different cultures. Whether we’re gardening, cooking, or just chatting, I’m excited to exchange ideas and traditions. I speak English and Italian, understand Spanish, and I am curious French and Russian. If you’re passionate about languages and culture, come join me for a unique experience!
Can be hard work, too.
