The work is REALLY easy and flexible! Maria is funny and will treat you as part of her family. In one month she took me for everywhere, including restaurants with her and her son! Hahahha. I visited every city around with her, who knows a lot about her country and will teach you about everything in Italy! The house is in one of the most beautiful places I ever been in my life!! The main house is in the top of the mountain with a perfect 360• view. I have no words to describe how amazing was my days there and how grateful I am for this time. Thank you Maria and Malio, I hope to see you again!!

They kicked me out after 3 days without ANY previous warning. I have a complete review for who wants to know! The excuse was: “my work was great but, I drink a lot of water and I hurted their dogs (emotionally)”. 1. You can't compare people necessities in different situations of work! If you drink and eat a quantity, seated in your office, you CAN'T compare with who is doing the fisical work in the desert with the hot sun! 2. I would never hurt any animal in life - or person, guys! Don't forget about person's feelings too, they have probably more than the dogs, and they got hurt as well.
