Rural Coliving Village - Sicily Chapter

In our spaces, everyone helps to cook dinners and we turn. You cook one day with another person, then someone else cooks dinners for you during the whole week. Our team can help and facilitate communication and the organization but you’ll learn to self-manage and share community duty, everything is optional and of course, you can cook for yourself but we’ll encourage everyone to step into a family and community style. If you really don’t like to cook you can always set the table or help with the dishes at the end.

There are common kitchens and indoor and outdoor dining spaces.

There are several bars and restaurants in the village where you can do your break in real sicilian style, breakfast with Granita and Tuppo, Aranicini and fresh orange juice.

We organize groceries shopping and then we split food costs at the end of your stay. It usually costs from 8€-12€/day for 4 daily meals, including drinks and desserts.

You can always add to the list your personal preferences.

You will spend less money on the food than in any European city as you only pay for your part of the ingredients.

There are always vegans, vegetarians, and meat eaters in the group, so don't worry about the variety of the meals. Everyone enjoys their diet.

One time per week we will gather all together with the participants, the local community, and the village to host a meal. We’ll cook and share recipes, you can finally bring your grandmother's secret one and cook it with one of our grandmas. Trust us, it is not complicated, everyone can bring something and we’ll eat and play music and have fun.

We are settled in a Sicilian village, our homes are made of stone and big spaces indoors are not so common. We are opening a coworking space, together with the local public administration, but you can also find plenty of outdoor and small locations so you can be more focused on your work.

Every participant will be required around 5 hours per week of exchange of skills and competencies, with this time we’ll organize workshops for the community ( both local and us) or help the locals in improving their life and business. Can be literally anything, you can bring your SMM skills and set up a campaign for the local restaurant, build an Instagram page, or help with countability. But you can also help around the garden, give food to the animals or teach your languages to the kids or give finally the woodwork lesson!

We’ll map the needs and desires of the village and your skills and inclinations, so you’ll be part of the co-creation of this experience.

If you are too busy with your work you can always choose between our options during the booking.
