I spent two amazing weeks picking blueberries in the morning, eating delicious homemade meals during the day and swimming regulary in the Lake. You have to be prepared to dark humour (and dark chocolate) but I'll never forget all our little debates around the table. When you enter Fabio's home you enter a free space where you can talk about anything, we didn't agree on everything but I always felt respected and the times where it felt otherwise we just talked it out. The setting is also breathtaking (there's so many beautiful hikes !). I couldn't ask for a better first experience.

I enjoyed a lot!!👩🏼‍🌾🏔 I found there what I needed: connection and peace in myself & nature, but also got new friends!:) We had interesting conversations and many laughs. We communicated honestly and that's what I suggest if you go there: be open how you think and feel, if you're uncomfortable with Fabio's humour or anything, you can talk about it. Fabio wants us volunteers to have a good stay and he's open-minded. And ahhh he cooked deliciousss food!!! Thank you <3 +++ I could go down when he drove the deliveries after lunch, so I were swimming at the lake almost every day, recommend!!!🐠

This experience was absolutely wonderful and exactly what I needed! After a few crazy months it was the peace I had been looking for. Calm mornings of work which was always super satisfying, and free afternoons where you could do whatever you please even if it means doing nothing at all! Fabio was incredible and I recommend it to everyone who's looking for a haven.

This was my first Worldpackers experience and I have no complaints! We spent a few hours in the mornings picking strawberries / blueberries then had the rest of the day to ourselves to explore. The lake is a 30 minute walk away and is absolutely stunning, definitely one of my favorite views of Italy. Fabio prepares a delicious lunch and dinner and is very chill and understanding. I had an amazing week here :)

Before arrive, reading the comments I was a little bit afraid of the experience. But actually was a amazing volunteering! Fabio and Larissa are so nice people, and the work is easy and pleasant. Its a perfect place if you want to rest, give yourself a pause and be introduced into the nature and what nature can provide for us. As a woman traveling alone, I felt safe and respected. Yes, the toilet its shared but we have our own room, and Fabio makes everything, even more that he needed. The hours are respected, the food is great and the farm is even better than the photos. Grazie mille!!
