Even though I arrived during a quieter period, I had a good time at the Center Centre. The hosts treated me really well, always having incredible film-like stories to tell and always having time to teach me plenty of practical things I'll carry with me. The place is cosy; the surrounding Tuscan villages are breathtaking. It's even close enough to the beach to go by bike! A word of advice for future volunteers: you should be ready to lend a hand, to dare to do things before dismissing them and be curious. I went away with the feeling that I could have learned more.

I had a lovely time in Tuscany. Samarona was a very welcoming host and made me feel like I fit right in. The work was very flexible in the hours you wanted to complete it and there was a huge variety of things to do so the work never became tedious or boring. I'm also a person with very little knowledge/experience of outdoor or farm work but Samarona was very helpful in teaching me new skills.

At the beginning, I felt uncomfortable at the new place - the host has very strong opinions and from my perspective had to complain a lot. I didn't know what I am allowed to do or say - but then I learned that it is okay to say that I disagree with him. I really had to get used to his character and I can understand if that is a problem for others. What else? - property is so beautiful! - bikes & cat - villages are adorable - working hours are respected - no WIFI in your room - you will be able to cook! - in winter, all volunteers share a room - floors are cold in winter Thank you D & S 💖

This was my first stop on my work-and-travel adventure and I couldn't imagine a better one. The two hosts are really warm-hearted and nice people, with a lot of life experiences. They always care for every volunteer and talk a lot with you. They make the place feel like a home. The jobs were not too hard and you can often decide yourself wich task you want to do. If you plan something or need time for something personal, you can always talk to the host and arrange it c: All in all a really good experience for me. I loved the place and the people were and will never forget this experience 🫶

I am very happy to have found my space in this place. Thank you both :)
