I had an absolutely wonderful time at the host. Andrea and Donna were very welcoming and friendly. I helped Andrea with making firewood, some simple building, improving and maintaining the grounds , as well as more domestic chores around the house like cleaning, and hanging laundry. A little bit of hard work was rewarded with wonderful home cooked Italian meals. Many of the ingredients are local or straight from the garden. I highly recommend volunteering here. The surrounding nature and wildlife are spectacular and there are some opportunities for hiking and outdoor activities nearby. 🌠

The expierience in the host was amazing. Dona is an amazing person and an amazing cooker. She always was asking if i need something, in a very kind way. The place is really beautiful. Is a little far from the city, but you can take a train nearby, but i think that is the best thing here, because you can rest and live a little the wild life.. and of course enjoy the pool. Thank you Dona for let me be part of your family! 🥰🙃

The host is a hidden gem. Absolutely loved the whole experience from start to finish. I found what I was looking for, and more! There is peace, calm and tranquility. You're surrounded by nature and amazing people. I also learned lots of new skills along the way. Dona is a jack of all trades, a wonderful person, hard working and very kind. She will make sure you're always fed, and makes you feel at home. It really feels like you're part of the family. The rest of the family, Andrea, Giulia, Gea, and Giorgio are absolutely amazing. I couldn't recommend this experience enough! ❤️

Hi Joseph,
I miss your help so much that I ended up writing this review for you on the fifteenth day since your departure, and most likely they won't publish it..I'm very sorry...
but know that, in the months we've spent with you, you have been of great help; with us you have discovered what it means to live in the middle of the forest and to take care of the plants and the vegetable garden. You have spent a lot of your energy to make the whole garden, the vegetable garden and the forest in the best possible way, and I am very grateful to you. You have been patient and very willing as few are... Thanks for everything, until next time!!

I had a great time at the host! Dona its an amazing person, she has a lots of stories and cooks delicious, you will never be hungry here. This place its perfect if you want to connect with nature, learn about plants and gardening (Dona knows a lot and will teach you). I do recommend to speak a little of italian beacause Dona does not speak any other languages. The free day its flexible and there are tons of hikes you can do around or cities to visit near by. The daily routine its always different so you will not be bored. Text me if you have any questions. Grazie mille, Brava Donaa!

Thanks the host! Even though the work sometimes is hard, it's totally worth it. Dona is like a grandma who ALWAYS prepares something good to eat, so you are not gonna be hungry here! Since it's a family, we eat together with Dona and Giorgio (her husband) and sometimes on sundays the rest of the family comes to have lunch. If you really want to disconnect from the city, this is your place. It's super peaceful, the only noise comes from the chickens and birds. I suggest to speak italian, even a little bit to communicate with Dona. She always have a good story to tell💕 Grazie per le risate!
