In terms of working hours and tasks, everything was as expected, and the hosts genuinely care for the volunteer. However, I felt uncomfortable preparing meals. On multiple occasions, while I was mid-recipe, I was asked if I had experience with the recipe mid-cooking. On other occasions I was told directly "that's not how you cook,". Overall, I found these ways of communicating to be somewhat disrespectful. I felt this tension most strongly with the husband. Their expectation for volunteers to prepare specific recipes in a precise way should definitely be added to their profile description.

Siamo esterrefatti! È falso che richiediamo ricette specifiche!
Darío decideva di preparare (senza conoscerle e senza concordarle con noi) ricette italiane complesse, per la prima volta, cercando di seguire video YouTube. Vedendolo in difficoltà, non potevamo non intervenire. E così non ha mai rispettato i nostri orari: abbiamo sempre mangiato con una, due o anche più di due ore di ritardo. Non avevamo scritto nulla prima per non penalizzarlo troppo, ma la sua recensione meritava una replica.

Staying for the third time with them has been such a gift. They are kind and welcoming that I truly feel at home every time I'm there. I love them, their beautiful family and sweet pets that are always affectionate. The place itself is amazing, and they are always supporting. I'm deeply grateful for all the opportunities and for the love and care I always receive from them.

I love the family and the pets. Was my second time there with them and they were lovely and gentle like in the 1st time. We became really good friends and for sure if I have the opportunity I'll get back. They are always open to help you. They also help you with learning Italian and open to learn new things about Portuguese and Brazilian culture. The wife parents are adorable too and always welcoming. :) For sure I recommend this experience.

It was the best experience I could've had. They are lovely, gentle, the home, patient and kind, help me with everything I need, they treated me as a family member. I've learned Italian, they have a lot of patience to explain and help you to learn. The house is in a beautiful place, pets are lovely and cute. For sure I can say that was perfect.

I met a super friendly and caring family concerned about our well-being. From the first day, they made us feel like part of the family and very comfortable in their home. They always included us in their outings. The tasks are easy to perform; house maintenance, taking care of their adorable pets, tending to the garden, and cooking lunch and dinner. They helped us with all the procedures we needed, we shared many interesting conversations, and we learned a lot of Italian. Honestly, we made true friends. There isn't enough space to describe everything... we will definitely visit them again.
