Aiuto nella nostra casa in ristrutturazione

Such an incredible time with the home and Riccardo! I felt so welcomed the moment I hopped in her car right outside the train station. The work was exactly what I expected, albeit everyday was a new task! As someone who thrives on surprises and unexpected adventures it was perfect for me. I loved our family meals together and time spent chatting. I was given quite a bit of time to travel outside of the countryside into the city of Agrigento and Palermo with my time off. They were very accommodating with these excursions as they really wanted me to experience the beauty Sicily had to offer :D

I need to thank the home and Ricardo for their hospitality and ofcourse for hosting me! It was an amazing experience, the hours are respected, the home hooks you up with local food (very good!!!) and you really get immersed in the local culture… Unfortunately due to medical issues i had to leave earlier then expected, but however i enjoyed my time at their place… Grazie!!!

My experience was amazing. The work is not difficult at all if you like getting your hands dirty and enjoy a good workout. the home is so kind and always makes sure you are comfortable. Ricardo is a man of great patience considering my Italian is not very good. They make delicious food and make you feel welcome into their home. The views from the home are stunning as well. My only suggestion would be bring a pair of boots. Great experience overall!

If you want to immerse your self in an Italian lifestyle, this place is for you. The work is hard but it can be rewarding to see the progress you're helping out with. The area it's s little remote but you can do some exploring if you're willing to walk a bit, and if you're flexible the host will offer you a ride to town when they are available. Meals are great, hours are respected and they are flexible about the shifts/time off. the home is a very sweet person, she makes sure you're comfortable and have everything you need. Ricardo is a guy of few words, but very nice, polite and patient.

I started my trip with my stay at Angela's and I could not ask for a better stay. I did not speak a word Italian and Angela only can say a few words in English. But you are able to work things out and have some good laughs with her. She always try's her best to make to make you feel like home, offers you amazing food and chances of getting to know the Dolomiten. Work was never more than the hours you made out before and never to much work. I've met the best people while staying there and made some beautiful experiences and memories. And the nature there is beautiful!

This was my first time volunteering and it couldn't have been better. Angela made me feel like a member of the family from day one. She was always very nice, generous and had lots of patience with me. I met great people here and the working hours were respected. I felt very welcome and was so sad when I left. I would definitely recommend this place!

My first volunteer job couldn't be better. Angela was like a mother, she is a wonderful and generous person, and an excellent cooker (she prepares all the breakfast dishes at the B&B which are delicious). We had the best food ever available. The place is beautiful and perfect for who love nature. Angela gave me lots of tips on what to do in my free time. The tasks are basic and everyone can do it. Working hours are respected. It's the perfect place to learn or practice some Italian. Thank you so much for these wonderful days I spent with you Angela, Ricardo, Giuseppe and others volunteers!

My first volunteering experience could not have gone better than the guest house. I felt at home, Angela and her nice family always treated me like one of them. During the workday you will normally help at breakfast, clean tables, wash dishes and continue with the cleaning and tidying of the rooms. It is not a difficult job, maybe at first it seems a little heavy but it's just a matter of getting into the rhythm. If you want to get into the Italian culture, language and kitchen, here is your place. I'm very grateful for everything, grazie Angela, Ricardo, Gloria and Giorgia! È stato un piacere :)

Rosy per me sei stata come una manna dal cielo!!! Sono stata molto fortunata ad accoglierti nella mia casa in questo momento dopo una terribile esperienza con altri volontari. Sei una ragazza eccezionale emani pace e tranquillità. Hai collaborato nel migliore dei modi. Spero tanto di ospitarti in Sicilia, sarai un ospite d' onore ti farò mangiare tutte le prelibatezze della mia isola e ti farò fare il bagno nelle baie più belle della sicilia. Spero che la vita ti riservi il meglio.
Un abbraccio forte

I felt comfortable with Angela and her family, they cook real Italian food 🥰 tasks are not easy at the beginning, at least in my personal case I was pretty new doing beds and doing a deep clean as a guest house needs, they have hight cleaning standards, I learned and I had fun but isn't too easy 😅 also because the language, if you take this adventure be aware that you'll need a basic Italian 😅 it's easy to misunderstand. This adventure is only in Italian, they speak just a lil English. I felt great bc I wanted to learn Italian.

The host was a warm & friendly person but at times she was being rude & lacking in empathy when giving comments/ instructions for work. She was expecting professional cleaning standards from Day 2. I was feeling overworked with the tasks given & the time required to complete them. Daiano was a beautiful place to be with nature but the drawback was transportation. Traveling out was tough & the host isn't helpful in terms of rides. The host expects help outside of working hours & did not communicate. Poor Wifi. A long stay is not my recommendation, as its lacks activities or sightseeing.
