This expirance was intresting. I chose to go hear to learn more about eco living and nature aswell as somatic expiraince.
I found this opitunity amazing and really enjoyed having chill time hear. The place is a remote location which made the busses a little difficult and stress full so i would sugest u check ur arrival and leaving plans properly and make sure u have essentals u need for ur time as theres only one small shop around. There are also no hostels in the capital.
The food that was provided was top quality.
I found it nice that we all had days of together as a group.

The project was my first volunteer experience, and it was beautiful and magical. Marius welcomed us and treated everyone incredibly well. The place was very comfortable and welcoming; we all had our own personal space, and the working hours were reasonable. I was surrounded by beautiful nature, and every day was magical. There were so many places on the farm where I could find moments of peace and connection. We also had wonderful activities like Sardinian Sauna and pizza night. It was truly beautiful. Beside the activities the conversations were incredible, I learn and enjoyed so much

I really enjoyed the time I spent at the project. This place is for you if you want to: - learn teamwork - live in an international community - feel part of a bigger project - take responsibility and grow your awareness - do something good for the next generation - learn how structured plans can create something real - ground yourself through working with your hands - connect with the beauty of nature

The project was beautiful, Marius provided great facilities to stay in and high quality ingredients for volunteers to cook with. I enjoyed harvesting olives and working with Aaron and Rosa, who taught us lots and were utterly lovely. I was bothered by things that occurred during my stay. People were told to leave on short notice when they voiced an issue and there was a lack of appreciation for volunteers and a general sense that we were being tested and pushed to our limit both physically and mentally. I was also nearly stranded as I was scheduled to leave on a day that no buses came to town.

Thanks for harvesting olives, Elli. I’m glad you enjoyed learning from Aaron and Rosa.

I didn’t cancel anyone’s stay at short notice or ask anyone to leave. Please say who you mean and what happened.

When your bus didn’t come, I drove you to catch one. I can’t control the schedule. I’m surprised you mention nearly being stranded but omit the lift.

I take your concerns about feeling underappreciated and pushed to your limits seriously. I never meant to test anyone’s limits, physical or mental.

I had a great time in the project. Meeting international people made the experience what it is. The accomodation is beautiful and it is really nice to be in the nature all day long.

I had a really wicked time volunteering at the project. I got to participate in all the guest activities and the provided meals were amazing! The property is beautiful and although the harvest is hard work, you are always working as a team. It was my first time working an olive harvest and it was a really amazing learning experience.

The project was my very first volunteer position, and I could not have wished for a more beautiful start. The people and the beauty of the place in particular made this time so special. A big thank you to Rosa and Aaron – with you I felt at ease and welcome from the beginning. The group was also great, and the cats, of course :)))
