My experience in the project was very good, I felt at home, Vale and Massi are a lovely couple fulfilling an incredible project. I learned some things about agriculture despite the language, I learned a lot about the local culture, I ate delicious thanks Vale for such delicious recipes. The only thing that was complex was that the van got too hot, making it impossible to be in it during the day, even at night it was difficult.

This was our first volunteering experience and the best of them all; Val and Massi set the bar incredibly high 🫶 They respected absolutely everything that was published and I would say they totally exceeded our expectations. The work isn't complicated, the meals are amazing, learning about the local and also getting to know the culture that isn't easily seen in other parts of Italy was the best part of this volunteering. I can only thank them for these lovely days we spent together; I will definitely visit them again because they have a very special place in my heart 🥹💖

I am very grateful for my volunteering at the project; from the beginning they made us feel part of their life, their days, their friends, and even their family. We learned to do different things during the period we were there; we are witnesses to the love and dedication that has been put into this project since it began. I bid farewell with a very happy heart, thank you for everything, Vale and Massi. ❤️

Val y Maxi son increíbles! Ellos construyeron su casa de una manera alternativa, más sostenible y con la ayuda de un montón de personas. Más que una casa hermosa, tienen una comunidad de amigos. Yo sentí que gané una familia en el proyeto. Ellos sempre ponen el bienestar en primero lugar y quieren que todos se sientan bien y contentos. Aprendí mucho y tuve momentos muy lindos con Val, Maxi y Dani, la otra voluntaria. Espero volver un día. Los quiero mucho y soy muy agradecida por todo lo que hicieron por mí. Un gran beso!
