We are Gaia (she/they) and Vale (any pn), we live with our three children aged 13, 8 and 2 + two cats and one dog. We like to deconstruct what is taken for granted. We like constructive criticism and imagining new concepts. We are transfeminists interested in ecology and in building a cohousing. We are part of a collective Abitare Bene Comune that is building a cohousing network based on the commons theory in Italy. In our house we eat vegan or vegetarian. Our children attend a Montessori school in the forest. We are interested in alternative and inclusive pedagogy. We are genderqueer people and queer activists.

VERY IMPORTANT!!!
No fascism, racism, homo-bi-transphobia or negativity in our home!!!
Please don't eat meat during your time in our place.
In our region we suffer from overtourism and gentrification. We are on couchsurfing to share the privilege of housing and favour a more sustainable form our tourism BUT we don't want to support non-ecological way of travelling. If you are flying to visit our region consider that aviation emissions affect us disproportionately: it’s typically the rich nations who take most of the flights, whereas the poor nations are suffering the effects of climate change and are least equipped to deal with rising temperatures.

IMPORTANT: we don't host people that deny the genocide in Palestine.

We live in one of the most expensive region in Europe. Feel free to share food, housework and, if you want to, a little donation of for electricity and water: there is a donation box in the entrance.

~Update 2025~

During summer we will often be in Cavedine, valle dei laghi, near Garda Lake on our little property in the forest. Here it is possible to stay only with your own tent(s) and camping/survival equipment (esp. water).

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Ho sentito i racconti di una cara amica su come ospitare con couchsurfing possa mettere in connessione con persone interessanti e mi sono incuriosita. Ho pensato che potrebbe essere una bella esperienza per me e i miei bambini.
