The Experience

Our farmhouse is in the middle of a food-forest, not far from lake of Bolsena. we crop whatever is available (grapes, fruits, olives, many wild plats, mushroom, wood, etc). we do yoga 2/3 times a week and listen to a lot of music. we like to play pool table and cards game. We enjoy a natural swimming pool. Looking after goose, chicken and our 2 dogs. We live trying to consume as less energy as we can, enjoy local products and local people.

I truly enjoyed my time at Zebra Farm. I can't say what to expect (Saviana would say expect nothing) because every day was different. Your time will not be the same as mine because tasks are done based what needs handling at that moment in time. It's a good place to learn. Saviana is quite knowledgeable on many topics. That's the only thing I can say to expect, education and maybe a game of cards if that's what you're into :)

My experience at the farm was amazing. I was a bit nervous at first, as this was my first time travelling with Worldpackers, but I felt welcomed and safe right away. I worked in the mornings, sometimes on my own, sometimes with Saviana. I helped clear paths overgrown with blackberries, we made jam from wild plums, repaired the clothesline, and started fixing an old composting toilet. When it was too hot to work, we rested. I took their dog for walks, and in the evening we played cards or pool and listened to all kinds of music. I already miss this place and can't wait to come back soon!

I was able to experience real countryside life in Italy. She has a garden with many kinds of plants. She always protect nature and loves and respects it. I was interested in her lifestyle and happy to learn from it. She tried to understand my situation and communicated well. Sometimes, it was a bit difficult to understand her style, but overall it was a good experience. (Thank you for being understanding about my schedule!) However if you want to travel somewher after working even your day off, it is really difficult without car and you can't use mobile data, so you need to rely on wifi.
