My short but transformative time at the farm was beautiful, connected, quaint, and dream-like. I loved it & learned so much about sustainability, culture, and life. Belvedere looks like a painting, I was in awe of every view and loved exploring it, especially the beach and nightlife. The work is long and tedious but rewarding and you get used to it. Anna is serious about her work but is very kind & understanding, and is happy to help with any problems we have! Finally, there is a strong community. the farm brings together so many kind, genuine, different people, and I hope our paths cross again♥🫶

I had a wonderful time at the farm! This was my first Worldpackers experience, and it turned out to be a great fit. During the summer, the days start early around 5 AM. But you get a break and are usually done around 11:30 AM. The work can be physically demanding. So come ready to work and stay flexible. That said, Anna is very understanding and willing to adjust things if needed. It's a bit of a walk to places like the beach or grocery stores, but that's part of the charm. Everyone was incredibly kind and welcoming, I would absolutely do this experience again!

My time at the farm was one of the best experiences of my life. You get to learn so much about organic farming and being sustainable while also having time to explore the town and go to the beach! All the volunteers are super welcoming, friendly and you develop a great sense of community while you’re here. I can definitely recommend this experience to anyone especially if you love nature and want to immerse yourself in Italian culture.

If you like nature, know a bit of Italian, have some physical fit, like to be part of a community, I'd say the farm is The place for volunteering with many other volunteers making it the social rural hub. The food is amazing, and the rooms are good. Above all, I learned so much, I am grateful for this opportunity.

My experience in the farm has been marked by a deep sense of community, a sense of responsibility and sustainability, and autonomy. The experiences I lived through in my short stay in this almost idyllic spot in the south of Italy would not have been as memorable or significant in my growth as a person and as a student if it were done somewhere else or with other people. Living 24/7 with the same people, while having your own personal space and freedom of autonomy, both force you to come as you are, be truly seen, and develop your own skills, while choosing to share your life with others.
