The Experience

A volte cerchiamo una persona che stia a casa al posto nostro a dare da mangiare e bere le galline e le capre e che curi l'orto. Il lavoro è aprire gli animali al mattino alle 8 e dare cibo e acqua (20 minuti di lavoro) e poi chiudere gli animali al pomeriggio alle 16 (20 minuti). Il restante tempo serve per curare l'orto (innaffiare e raccogliere). Durante il giorno tutto il tempo è libero! Consigliata auto, poiché esiste un solo bus al giorno.

Lisa and Amadeo welcomed me with warmth, and I've had a lovely time at the farm. It's a great opportunity for anyone that wants to work with their hands in the fresh air, surrounded by mindblowingly beautiful scenery. It's also great if you want to practice German or Italian. You'll have your own cozy bedroom and bathroom in a guesthouse, as well as your own kitchen, although lunch is always eaten together with the family. Thank you once again for a wonderful experience Lisa, Amadeo, Valerio, Silvio and little Illario!

Its been a lovely experience. They are a wonderful family and I felt comfortable and welcomed. Although some tasks are physically demanding, the work itself is straightforward. The place and sorroundings are gorgeous, but getting around can be difficult due to its isolated location and limited transportation. However the family always offered me a lift whenever they had to take the car, which i really appreciated. I would maybe recommend coming with someone, as it can get a bit lonely at times. However, if you are looking for a peaceful retreat surrounded by nature, this is the place!

I had a great time staying at the farm! Lisa and Amadeo have worked hard to create a place that is beautiful, sustainable, and welcoming to volunteers and guests. I mostly worked in the garden weeding, but also had a variety of other tasks to do. Usually I worked in the morning and had the whole afternoon free but occasionally I would help out with the kids in the evening! They have a separate room, bathroom and kitchen just for volunteers. The walk to town is about 40 minutes downhill and can be a little tiring, especially in the heat. It takes about another hour to walk down to the sea

Amedeo and Lisa are lovely people who gave me a warm welcome. If you needed anything or had a question, you could always let them know and they'd sort out any problem. The work in the garden, which always took place in the mornings, was sometimes quite strenuous as the property is situated on a slope. However, I was allowed to do something different almost every day, so the work never got boring. If you want to go to the nearest town (Vibonati) in the afternoon, it's about a 30-minute walk. All in all, I really can recommend this experience.

I spent one month at the farm and it was a really good experience. Usually I worked in the mornings, either cleaning the rooms or helping in the vegetable garden, and sometimes before dinner I looked after the children. The work was always clear and not too heavy. The house is quite far from the village, but for me it was perfect to disconnect and enjoy the quiet atmosphere. On my free days I could take the bus to go to the sea, which I really enjoyed. Lisa and Amedeo are very kind and welcoming, and I always felt comfortable with them and the children.
