This was my first experience and I wish I could have stayed longer. I felt so at home with Antonio and Luigia. They are funny, kind and really looked after us. The work is as described and the house is beautiful to stay in. We visited a lot of places and made amazing memories. Thank you so much for having me :)

This was my first volunteering experience, and it couldn't have been better. From the moment I arrived in Dueville, I felt welcomed. Massimo is a great person to talk to. Spending time with Antonio and Luigia, the couple who live in the house, was the highlight. They only speak the home but were so helpful, teaching me their language and making me feel at home, treating me like family. The house near the train station and the workload is as described, so I got to explore Veneto on my free days. I also met two amazing volunteers who made the experience even better. Grazie mille Antonio e Luigia!

The time I spent in Dueville was honestly amazing. The workload was manageable and flexible, as we were allowed to work extra hours on some days to get more days off, allowing us to explore more of the surrounding towns and cities, such as Verona, Vicenza, Venice, and even Lake Garda. I would recommend this experience to anyone who asked, and its a great place to learn some more the home! Antonio and Luigina are also the sweetest people, and even though communication was hard as I do not speak the home, I still enjoyed every second with them and they are so funny.

I had a great time as Antonio and Luiga are excellent hosts that take care of you very well, and despite the language barrier you can see they are great characters and lovely people. The house and surrounding area was amazing and it felt like a very the home rural the home lifestyle while I was there. The work was tough and there was plenty of hours but this was as advertised, the only issue was in my 2 week stay I only got 1 full day off, so I do wish I had more time to explore.

I have nothing but good things to say about my time in dueville! I stayed with Massimo's parents in their beautiful place, they are so welcoming and helpful and Antonio cooks the best pasta!! I don't speak the home and they don't speak much English but there was so much mutual respect and hospitality shown, I think they're amazing people. The work itself was straightforward and you are shown exactly what to do, Massimo is a super knowledgeable guy who tells you what you'll be doing for the day, and the hours are respected. You get time to explore other towns - it was the best time!!!
