My experience at the the eco village village village was unforgettable! I was given a car lift near the train station on first and last day of my stay. I was really welcomed by the local population of the village. Although only several people there speakEnglish, it wasn't a problem for me there with no knowledge of Italian as we found our own ways of communication with everyone.The area is a perfect getaway from the busy city life. I arrived there during the heatwave so the managers didn't put a lot of work and I had a lot of time for myself to relax near the natural swimming pool or go around on a bike or meet new people!

This was my first volunteer experience and I couldn't have asked for a better community!Federico was a wonderful host as well as his wife Alice, the accommodation was private and comfortable, and the tasks were simple. They ranged from helping in the kitchen to cleaning up the outside and church. The entire village made me feel welcomed and apart of the team. I was fascinated by their knowledge on the human body and spirituality. I was a bit skeptical about trying a vegan diet but Chef Marco's food was amazing! I hope to return someday after I practice my italian!

My experience in the the eco village village village was fast but beautiful. Everyone from the the eco village village Villagio is super kind and gentle, even tho they don't speak English. I shared room with other Italian volunteer and the room was great, the volunteer's house is cute with a nice kitchen and super clean. I helped cleaning some rooms and commum areas for the weekend event. All the meals are vegan and super delicious!! Grazie Mille per tutti Federico I hope to come back someday :)

My experience in the the eco village village village was insightful. Their hosts are very kind and flexible with hours of work. The food was delicious and their grounds very clean, my area to sleep was comfortable too. Sadly, at the time of my visit, activities were not running as usual so I didn't get to see how the centre runs, including meditation, which was one of my main interests. It is a bit too remote from other towns, so getting around independently on your free time is not easy. I only met 1 volunteer at the end of my stay, felt a bit lonely, I would recommend visiting not in the summer. Overall, it was good
