About
Hello, I’m Lineo
I live in a mountain village in a round stone hut with a thatched roof. My days start with the fire and the water, and they end the same way. In between there are ponies to feed, blankets to mend and a lot of cooking, mostly on coals in a pot with three legs.
I film a short video every week to show what a day here is really like. People ask most about the food, so I wrote the recipes down, and now I sell them as printable booklets and cards, with a cookbook and two video courses for anyone who wants to cook this way.
