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! 🥰

Efisio has some rules there, so ask him directly what you can use or when.

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.

Beautiful farm and the animals that were around brought me so so much joy! We were able to explore a lot locally because other volunteers had cars, so we went on adventures together - I would recommend a rental car if you can (although the driveway can be a bit tricky). We had some problems but I was really impressed by the communication and resolution with Efisio & Irena. Hours were very respected and treated humanely (some days were too hot to work). Working here is a great way to immerse yourself in nature.

Efisio and Irina, the two people who will welcome us to this wonderful place immersed in nature. They were very cordial and welcoming upon my arrival, and it was nice to chat with them. The main tasks were those of preparing some materials useful for the realization of a structure built entirely with natural materials and imparting some notions about bio-building. In your free time you can visit beautiful beaches that are about 1 hour by car from the structure. I recommend arriving by car if you plan to go out in your free time.

It was a very positive experience. Irina and Efisio were hospitable and made me feel welcome from the first day. The place is surrounded by splendid nature and I greatly appreciated the simple pace of life, meals prepared with fresh products, and the tranquility of the environment. The work mainly consisted of manual and physical activities, such as bio-construction with earth and straw, wood treatment, and maintenance of outdoor spaces. I recommend this experience to those who love nature, simple living, and working outdoors.
