According to the property profile it would be 5 hours of work a day. The host wants us to work all day long and wanted to give us day offs only in the case of rain, because the all the jobs are outdoor. It's a trap. I don't recommend to anyone. She is wants a person to work for free and not a volunteer. It's a trap.

Diego hasn't even started working, and how dare he say how many hours I ask for? He ate and slept for free without giving anything in return!

It was Elena's first time hosting, and even though she's still learning the platform, my time with her and her friends was wonderful. I felt immersed in the local culture, with cheese, truffles, balsamic and more, and the cosy house full of puppies made everything even nicer. Planting trees was one of the highlights for me and it genuinely made me happy. I also improved my Italian and enjoyed exploring nearby places like Modena, Parma, Reggio Emilia and Bologna. It's a beautiful project with flexible tasks, something to take into consideration given the Emilia-Romagna weather. Thank you Ele!

It's a very interesting project that is just getting started, for which the tasks involved were moving, relocating furniture, and arranging objects. Once things are settled and some current issues are resolved, it will be a very promising community.
