The Experience

We are a family (nadia, robert and our son born in 2021) from Switzerland. Since 2016 we live in Sardinia 6 month of the year. We made several experiences as volunteers in natural agriculture and permaculture. It helped us discover the island and its inhabitant. In 2023 we bought a piece of land covered by mediterranean scrub. Our goal is to live there in autonomy.

Robert and Nadia were great hosts they where very clear with what the required from me and what they provide. The food they cooked was vegetarian and it was all amazing, the work was good and we accomplished a lot during my stay! I got to meet a lot of locals and they even took me to quiet a few different places including local markets, cafes and events hosted by their friends. They are very generous and it was a pleasure to be around them and their young boy Kylian 😁

I stayed three-weeks at the project and couldn't have asked for a better experience. Right from the start, I felt very welcomed and inspired by the passion that Nadja and Robert bring to their work. I truly appreciated their willingness to share their extensive knowledge of the project and sustainable living. Also, their adorable son Kylian added an extra amount of joy and laughter to the experience, making it even more memorable. I wholeheartedly recommend this project to anyone seeking to reconnect with the project.

It was a really calm, natural experience. Robert and Nadia taught me a lot about the project, plants and sustainability. The land is beautiful and the food is amazing. The work is hard but it is perfect if you want to step out from the city life and calm down a little bit. It was a beautiful experience for me I hope I can go back one day! Thank you for everything!:)

Nadia and Robert are amazing! They will teach you about foraging, different cultures, living sustainably and SO much about food! Each work day we would have a new task so you never get bored! Be ready to get dirty though! It can be hard work sometimes, but it is so rewarding in the end! Their land is beautiful and they are a very welcoming family! Playing with their son Kylian was a bonus!! They make the best vegetarian food and amazing sweets! Highly recommend Robert's Tiramisu!! We came with little to no expectations and were more than pleasantly surprised. We had the best experience!

The experience with Robert, Nadia and Kylian was phenomenally immersive. They're a beautiful family that welcomed me with open arms and did everything they could to make me as comfortable as possible. I felt like another member of their family. I also had the opportunity to contribute to their beautiful project and dream. Their land is located in the middle of the mountains with a beautiful view of the sea, there they build their garden and their house! The whole family works on the project, so you will never feel alone, they will always be there to teach you and accompany you.
