My experience in Anticio the eco village was amazing, since my first day, each of everyone teat to me like one more there, everyone try to teach me something about the job, maybe with the vegetable garden, or with the animals or whatever; I also tried to learn italian, which was so gratefully, specially because of Manu, which speaks Spanish, and was able to teach me a lot, and now i can tell simples phrases in italian. Gracie mille, arrivederci!!🫶

I had a fantastic time during my week at the eco village, and i feel that i truly experienced the italian life here. although i don't speak much italian, i felt the love and good energy from everyone always. the work was simple and a good time to bond with members of the community, and the meals we enjoyed together were so incredible—i'll be missing that back in america. thank you for showing me the beauty of italy, i hope to return someday :) grazie mille, ciao ciao!!!!

600c won't be enough to say all the good things about the eco village. I felt at home. I'll leave knowing that I have a family here and I will carry them in my heart forever ❤️ Everyday was a new challenge that gave me a purpose for life. I recommend this experience for everyone especially for those who speaks Italian otherwise, they'll do their best to communicate with you knowing that their life is quite busy and running an Ecovillage is a challenge by itself so it's also a fulltime experience where you'll immerse yourself so you can get along with their energy. I wish you the best, Sarah ❤️

I had a great stay at the ecovillage. I met some very nice, funny people and we were able to speak a little English and a little Italian. The place is in the middle of the mountains, which is very relaxing, especially with the animals: dogs, goats, cats... Thank you for the experience :)
