It was a great pleasure to meet wonderful people like Anbu, Alice and their daughters. I truly admire their courage to move from the Czech Republic to the farm and start a new life. They are kind, caring and fair hosts who genuinely enjoy welcoming people. I loved spending time with the horses and alpacas, helping with household tasks, taking part in a gathering with the group they are part of, and meeting their friends. Activities start quite early, which is ideal for those who are energetic in the morning. I learned a lot, made new friends, and I'm very grateful for the experience.

Amazing experiences 😍🥰 Anbu and Alice are very nice people and they have lovely family with wonderful farm full of animals (horses 🐎, alpacas 🦙, cats 🐈‍⬛ and dogs 🐕). I felt like part of family. Everyday I worked only a few hours morning and evening and sometimes we went together on the beach for swimming or padleboarding, it was amazing experience.

My stay in the farm was truly wonderful. I felt like a family member. Alice cooks really well, so the food was always delicious. The work mainly took two or three hours in the morning, and in the evenings guests usually came to walk the alpacas. In my free time, Alice and Anbu took me to the beach and to the town. They have also wonderful daughters, who showed me everything.
I recommend this experience to everyone. 🌸

The farm was a wonderful retreat away from the hustle and bustle of my usual daily life. The house and property is beautiful, and has such a peaceful energy. The hosts are nice. They are very flexible, responsive, and easy to communicate with - always making sure I was well-rested and well-fed! Alice cooks delicious dinners and Anbu's dosa for breakfast became something to look forward to each morning. The tasks were straightforward, and working hours are flexible. Many of the guests were Czech, so interacting with them was a great way to get a sense of local culture/environment. :)

I do not have enough space to express how truly incredible this experience with this family is. Everyone is well intentioned and part of a beautifully maintained system where there is a place for each person. Expect to receive 10x the kindness you give in to Anbu, Alice and their children. They were hospitable, flexible, and planted the seeds of knowledge within me. I had a wonderful time resetting in the remote area of Czechia and hope to return one day. For anyone thinking about it… take the trip! Thank you for everything, and I hope the move to Sardinia goes smoothly.
