I really loved my experience here! I absolutely adored all the animals, especially the cats, and I already miss them. The work can be quite hard, but I think it can be adapted to what suits you it’s really all about communication, so don’t be afraid to talk about anything.
Irina and Efisio are such kind and warm people. They always helped me whenever I needed it, and I especially became really close with Irina. She felt like an older sister to me...I would recommend this place to people who enjoy nature, peace and being a bit on their own. Can't wait to come back🤍

Efisio and Irena were very welcoming and accommodating. The working hours were respected and they communicated well. They were flexible with work especially with the brutal heat in July. Efisio's cooking is delicious and it was tough saying goodbye to all the animals.

I've had such a wonderful time at efisio's and irena's place. It really feels like a second home to be honest. They were so welcoming and warm from the start. The place on itself is also the most beautiful, being surrounded by nature, working with your hands and eating great home made meals with local products, i could not say anything bad about this place. Would definitely recommend and can't waittt to be back! 🥰

Hi everyone! 😊 This was my first Worldpackers experience and at first it was challenging. I had to get used to the new environment, language, sleeping in a tent, physically demanding work and extreme heat. After a few days, however, I adapted and really started enjoying it. The work can be demanding, but you also learn how to build with natural materials like mud and hay. Irina is one of the kindest people I have met and always tried to make us feel comfortable. The nature is beautiful — mountains, animals, peace and quiet. 🌿 I recommend: come with friend, flashlight, good insulated water.
