Coming home from a 2 month holiday has us left with the forgetfulness of giving feedback to these two amazing people. I am unsure there are words to truly describe the unforgettable experience in Abruzzo! Ingrid might possibly be idol (coming from Alex). So strong, smart, sure footed, and gorgeous inside and out. She was a mother figure, friend,… read more

This was my first workaway experience and it was more than i could've ever wished for. Ingrid & Pelle are two of the nicest, caring and fun(ny) people you will meet. I had a wonderful time and the 2 weeks seems to go by too quickly.
Pelle's cooking is amazing, he's one of those chefs when you eat their food your stomach goes "i can't anymore"… read more

Thanks for your kind words, Drew!

Per/Pelle and Ingrid were delightful, humorous, talented, gifted and smart hosts. I can't imagine a better duo running a boutique hotel. I was also lucky to have been part of a crew of fun, passionate, and hard workers that had each other's back, and everyone gave more than they took-- I felt a deep communal spirit and kinship with everyone there… read more

Ingrid and Pelle are a lovely swedish couple with an even more lovely dog:). During the time I stayed there I worked together with an australian couple in the garden, picking up rocks and loosening the soil. The work was not too heavy and in the afternoon we always had time to visit some of the closest cities or relax in the house. Together we had… read more
