I spent my best days of work and travel in Sicily thanks to Dylan, he is an incredible host and really makes you feel at home, which is not just any house, Sant'Alessio Siculo is one of the most beautiful towns I have been to , its landscape, its people, its food, etc. makes it unique!🫶

In my case it was my first volunteering so I arrived in town a little scared, the experience improved thanks to the arrival of two wonderful girls like Miley and Sofía. Then the tasks are not really difficult but if you have to go to the farm you may have to go up by bike for 2 hours to the farm, a little less than an hour on the way down but if you are fit you can do it. In any case, Dylan fits well with your abilities and knowledge regarding tasks. Feel free to talk to me if you have any questions about my experience.

Hi Maria! There won't be any more activities related to the farm unless I have my car. I hope you enjoyed the stay :)

Sicily was beautiful!! It was quiet since it was winter time. A lot of walking as the apartment is in the mountain. Work was easy-going. The room is not a private room if multiple volunteers booked. Dylan was helpful and drove us around and picked us up from the train station even though he was very busy. Please please message me if you have any further questions!:)
