I stayed here about 40 days thank you for inviting me to your home and having a place to stay. The work was labor intensive but Davidee was very knowledgeable everytime I asked a question about the project or land he would answer with so much knowledge.
I enjoyed the waterfall so much that it’s close by. The land was amazing and beautiful sometimes wish I had more food but all good. They have a beautiful family and they do a lot of projects together. Angelica is very knowledgeable about plants and herbs also the human mind which I found very intriguing

The experience at the eco village was excellent! The family (Angelica, Davide, Joaquim and Gaia) welcomed me with open arms and our days together were great; I am grateful for the company!
As an architect, I learned a lot about bioconstruction and even carpentry; Davide is very patient and is always willing to teach those who want to learn. I can only thank you for all the knowledge.

The ecovilla is an immersive experience in nature. There was silence and stillness. A wonderful experience with Angelica, her husband and children; and their wonderful animals. I highly recommend it for those seeking a bit of disconnection since it is located in a place that is not so easy to access/exit. The tasks were simple and the meals were in accordance with the schedules.

Saiguen is a calm person, who worked with care and dedication on everything that was proposed. She enjoyed our pets, played with the children, is a discreet person and was very dear to everyone. It was a pleasure to have her with us.

Since we arrived, the experience has been wonderful. Agelica, Gaia, and Joaquín picked us up; they were waiting for us at Davide's house with the food. The house is incredible; they made us feel like family. The activities were well coordinated and the working hours were relaxed, working as a team in the middle of nature. Finishing work and going to the waterfall less than 200 meters away. Incredible to bathe there. Delicious and healthy food. Sharing with the kids was great too. We are very grateful for the experience and for the beautiful family who are carrying out a precious project.
