This experience was good! I got to learn about sustainable living and about plants and how to take care of them.

The place is beautiful and easy to feel at home. Hermann is a funny guy, we talked and share a lot!

HORRIBLE experience!! He kicked me out of his house at night, leaving me with nowhere to stay, just for asking to end my volunteer work one day early.

For more information about my experience, you can contact me via message.

Laura Gabriela, I accompanied you to the center of Ceglie Messapica on Monday the 16th at 6:00 PM to find you a Bed & Breakfast, because you informed me 30 minutes earlier that you were not feeling well at my house and did not want to complete your volunteering when only one day remained to finish it after trying to talk with you; finally I told you verbatim: 'If you are not feeling well here and you do not want to respect our agreement, I will take you to Ceglie Messapica and you can arrange yourself on your own.'

The property is beautiful. Hermann lives alone and has two super cute dogs. I worked on varied tasks from weeding and carrying wood to cooking and cleaning. Sadly I left early becase I personally found it difficult to communicate to Hermann who is a passionate person ultimately well intended. You might love his artistic free spirit! Feel free to reach out for more info.

Our experience at the home was satisfactory. We learned a lot about sustainability, we connected with nature and we managed to get to know a little of the Puglia region. Hermann is a cheerful, good-humored person and he made us feel very comfortable in his home.

It was a good experience; we learned a lot about sustainability, harvesting, and gardening, and we had great exchanges with Hermann. I would recommend this experience to anyone looking to connect with nature and learn what it's like to live in Southern Italy.

The house is a cozy building in the middle of nature. Hernnan is quite a character. Pros : - The collaboration times were discussed and respected - You have the opportunity to learn about sustainability, how to make your own compost, harvest some vegetables from the garden, etc. - The property is very pleasant Cons : - Mobility in this area of Italy is complicated. Leaving the house to visit nearby villages by yourself is impossible. Hernnan offers to bring you closer, but only when he has a commitment outside, which limits the possibility of leaving.

In the house, I had the opportunity to learn about taking care of the vegetable garden. One of the most enriching parts was discovering the great amount of products that the earth offers for cooking. For those of us who love cooking, this is especially valuable and inspiring.

Herman is a very pleasant man, the tasks to be done were different, so some were quieter than others; however everything was very pleasant... At lunchtime all the volunteers and the host prepared and ate together, it was a very cool moment where you can listen and learn more about life and the world... I really enjoyed going there and, of course, I would like to go back... Thanks 😊

Thanks to you Naglive, it was a pleasure to share a little piece of life with you. I'm trying to leave my comment, but the boxes to do so aren't appearing. In the meantime, you know that the doors of my house are open for you whenever you like. I hope you have a great experience in Vietnam.

Very rewarding experience..!
Herman is a very characteristic figure from Argentina, a very active and eloquent companion. If you want an experience in a town that is very picturesque and the calm away from the city, this volunteering will enchant you. Very little light pollution, skies beautifully majestic. The house is filled with little pieces of art all around, and it is very pleasant to work as a team. Having lunch together with many of the vegetables from the garden itself and some walks through the nearby towns. Highly recommended!
