I had an amazing time at the project in the Heart of sicily! Christian the Host is super kind, fair and respectful. He showed and explained so many interesting things about Sicily and the local life. The nature is breathtaking and its an awesome place to explore adventures and take a pause from the fast modern life. Thanks for the amazing time! Grazie a la Sicilia! Greetings Paul

The project is such a special place. I loved my time in Sicily and, even though I only spent one week at the project, I could see its great potential. I would've liked to have more time to hang out with Christian, but I can say that he strives to include everybody and for all to have a good time and experience. Thank you for everything!

What a wonderful experience! We had the chance to explore amazing local locations like the restaurant Pane Vino, which hosts live music once a week, and stunning beaches where we could paddleboard. the project is exactly what its name suggests: an adventure. We helped build a "donkey kingdom", we walked a donkey, cooked over a campfire, and slept in tents. I strongly suggest it to everyone searching for a stunning and distinctive experience. I will definitely be coming back at some point.

This experience is truly one of a kind, I will remember it fondly for the rest of my life and I plan to return to the project, as of right now it is like campsite living, tents and campfires and solar energy, very simple but life should be this simple and that was one of the lessons I learnt from the experience, nights under the stars and mornings filled with excitement for what the day had to offer were my favourite moments, the labour itself was very hard but super rewarding, and not everyone does the same tasks if i'm not mistaken.

I had a great time, if you are open for adventure and learning new things about yourself and others this is a great place for you. I had the opportunity to meet inspiring people make many great experiences. The project and its the plans for the future are really amazing and it was great to contribute to that. Definitely planning on coming back someday. :)
