The Experience

I met Javier during a long backpacking trip in South America, in a brazilian ecovillage where we were working as volunteers in permaculture and eco-building. 4 months later, I was pregnant and another adventurous chapter of our lives started. We want to know enthusiastic people to exchange energies, stories, and activities. We need help to take care of Manuel, a sweet 11 months baby, so is important to have experience in child care.

Choosing to come to the home and stay at Giulia's place was the best decision I could have made! Giulia is an incredible human being, extremely welcoming, and genuinely cares about your well-being. I can truly say I made a great friend. And Manuel is simply the sweetest, most adorable child in the world, really!! It was so easy and delightful to take care of him. An unforgettable experience full of warmth. I recommend it with all my heart!

I came to the home looking for a volunteer experience, and I left with a family. My time there was simply perfect. Giulia and Javier have the biggest hearts; Mani is pure energy, laughter, and joy. There are truly no words to fully explain what I feel. Be careful… you might just gain a new family here. Giulia opened her life to me completely—she made me part of her world, introduced me to her friends and family, and made me feel at home from the very first day. Her mom is one of the kindest, most loving souls . I leave the home with a brother and sitter; and as Mani's proud aunt.

I had a great time with this family! They made me feel very welcome and a part of the family, including me in conversations, taking my feedback into account, making sure I got to experience the home, and even took me on a family weekend trip in Sicily! An area that was hard to maintain consistency in was the work hours for babysitting. It wasn't always in their control, but it is something to keep in mind that anyone wanting to volunteer should be fine being flexible. It was overall a really good experience, and I am so grateful for the opportunity!

My experience was quite interesting because I had the chance to learn from Giulia about different topics mostly about Italian culture Manuel is a sweet and curious baby and Javier have really great dancing skills; also, the location was convenient to reach the home around 50 min. However, at some point, schedules and tasks often changed with short notice, and sometimes the workload felt heavier than expected so I would recommend future volunteers clarify expectations, boundaries, and schedules in detail beforehand to ensure a smoother experience for everyone ;)

My experience in Italy at Giulia's place could not be better! It was PERFECT! She is the most amazing human being I have ever met and Manuel is such a sweet baby. She was very flexible with time and tasks, and I helped her more with babysitting cause that is what I have more experience with. She is an AMAZING cook, and you have to try her hot chocolate if you go in the winter 😉 We spoke English, Portuguese, Spanish and Italian. I had a room all to myself and could also have time alone to work on my projects. Thank you so much for everything! I definitely recommend you staying here!
