Looking for open minded people to help in our beautiful paradise

I volunteered at the communityand I enjoyed my experience. The place it's really quiet and the tasks are various but mostly physical jobs. You get to spend a lot of time in nature but the place it's a bit far from everything so sometimes it's hard to find something to do in your free time/weekends. The owners, Sara and Salvo, are nice, friendly, and approachable, always willing to discuss any concerns. Lunch is cooked by Sara and it's always a delicious meal (usually vegetarian). Overall, the opportunity to learn various tasks in such a beautiful location was truly rewarding. Grazie!

Well this place was once for sure a great place to experience living in a comunity. Sadly not during my stay.. Atmosphere was tense, in my opinion owner Filip doesnt have any manners and dont know how to treat people. Sara and Salvatore are lovely people and amazing chefs, sadly the circumstances at the property werent always pleasureble and not everyonce could handled them.

My experience was satisfactory the 5hours work commitment involved manual labor including assisting construction worker gardening cutting woods in general hard work. After work you have free time to spent exploring the nature but due to the fact that there isn't public transportation from the property to the firts city prepare yourself for long walk. The hosts Salvo, Sara, Philip and Trente were kind Sara's cooking was a highlight. I've met good volounteers we spent some great time together. Overall my experience was challenging, filled with hard work, wonderful people, and fantastic food.

Unfortunately I didn't find the family vibes that I hoped, the owner is so focus on his business, I felt treated like a worker, the job is hard and without safety equipment we have to arrange, i don't learned much about nature and on new skills Breakfast & dinner everyone cooks for themself, Sara makes for us the lunch it's very delicious The first village is 3 km away and there aren't a good public transport About free activity need to be lucky because depends if there are somethe community in process and maybe are not free So was a good experience I found good volunteers for share my days

We are sorry that you did not feel at home, we tried to make your work as pleasant as possible, leaving you complete freedom in the renovation of our Ape Piaggio. Probably not what you wanted to do, we always try to get volunteers to do the jobs they excel at.

So Trente and Fillip is amazing persons with truly fascinating lifes they give everything in this place.They have beautiful dream about the place .My experience was life changing for sure I will recommend this place.A small details if you don't have car with you it's a bit difficult to go out of the property it's a bit far away from villages.And also about the facilities you have to be careful with the water in the winter time because you will da cold shower if you don't be aware . The property also it's huge with a lot of airbnb houses and places so be aware to have goodshoes for walking.🥰

I stayed with my girlfriend for 3 weeks at Ater Tumti, and it was an amazing experience! The work was quite varied and enjoyable, always well in line with the schedule. Besides the immersion in nature, the best part of this volunteering experience is definitely the people. Filip and Trent are very generous, Sara and Salvo are great people, and all the other volunteers were good-hearted people! I hope to return one day!

Filip & Trente we're great hosts and have a beautiful space to call home! Everyone was very welcoming from the start. The work was good I enjoyed the olive picking, there were some long days but once you did your hours, you had time to yourself. Getting there can be a bit of a mission so take that into account. It's a rural location better if you had a vehicle. Overall a great experience with kind loving people and great food as well. Mamma Mia!!

Kyran has been an excellent resource throughout his stay, helping with determination and attention in the olive harvest. He has proven to be independent and proactive, taking the initiative in daily activities. We wish you much happiness

Ater tumti was amazing! Filip & Trente are amazing people with an amazing dream. Although the work was very physical I enjoyed doing it. The working hours were well respected and if there was a disagreement Filip & Trente were very open to feedback. I loved cooking for the group and cooking together with the other volunteers, the food was always amazing! Apart from working hours I enjoyed traveling around the area. The place can be a bit remote which is nice if you want to connect with nature but it can make it a bit difficult to explore other places. I would definitely recommend staying here!

Filip and Trente are truly warm hearted people who will open their arms to anyone. Working at Ater Tumti wasn't too stressful at all. The work wasn't too hard, and the hours were easy to complete on your own time. The views from the house were absolutely breathtaking, and really made me feel at peace my whole stay. My experience at Ater Tumti really was the community.
