We had a great first WP experience in this project. Nicos place was beautiful and he was super welcoming and nice. Me and my Partner worked a lot on the olive harvest and some smaller project like sewing and drywall. We started work in the morning so we often had a lot of time to meet with other travelers or neighbors, go on hikes or take the bikes to the beach. Nico also cooked delicious food for us and baked some fresh bread which was just great. We had the best time and we definitely want to come back. Thank you for everything Nico!

Nico was a fantastic host, always going the extra mile for his volunteers, making everyone feel right at home. His daily home-cooked dinners were a highlight - delicious meals shared under a night sky filled with stars made each day special. If you're looking for a meaningful, welcoming, and beautiful experience in Italy, I can't recommend this opportunity enough.

I had a fantastic stay here, espically starting out as my first place. It was really a treat to learn how this part of Italy functions and be a part of projects then wouldn't be complete without me. 10/10

This was my first WP-experience and I had such a good time at Nico's! The work is mainly outdoors and at times a bit hard as we are building stone walls and painting etc but it's a rewarding job as you get to see results right away. The beach is a 10-15min bike ride away which is wonderful after a hot workday. He and his neighbours welcomed me with open arms and often took me to see nearby towns or just local sightseeing, and fruitmarkets on weekends. I used my weekends off to travel around beautiful puglia! Will miss the community he has built and also the kittens.

This was my first volunteering experience and I can recommend it very much! You get to choose your working hours (we worked in the morning to have the rest of the day off and go to the beach) and your days off.The vibe was totally chill and Nicola is a very "go with the flow" type of person, so the work depended on the weather that day. Nicola cooked us delicious meals and took us to markets so we could buy groceries for ourselfs. One night we cooked for Nicola and his friends by making traditional dishes from our homecountry, it was such a great atmosphere, making jokes and a lot of laughing!

My days at the place were very calm and beautiful. It is an ideal site for anyone looking to disconnect from the big cities.
Nicola is a great host. At first he seems a bit serious, but once you gain his trust he is a wonderful person with a big heart.
We worked hard (with simple tasks), ate deliciously and had fun playing cards and going to the sea.
I would highly recommend this volunteering 100%.
