Since 11/23 I am in Sicily, knowing some of my family roots, the amazingly beautiful culture of Sicily and hopefully also some of the pasticceria art. Before heading back to Germany on yet an unknown date, I want to experience Turkey and Georgia..

Sarah è una tedesca latina dal cuore d'oro. Ci siamo conosciuti quando accompagnavo lei ed Alberto in montagna, per un evento relativamente vicino a casa mia.
È stata una condivisione poetica e naturale, godendo dell'ascolto mutuo, circondati dal fiume gelato della valle. Dal bosco, il fuoco e la sua cura.

Una volta a casa è stata molto attenta… read more

Estuve en la casa de Marío por 3 dias pero lo conocía desde antes.
Me lo había presentado Alberto, Marío nos llevó a un festival holístico en la montaña, una reunión de personas que viven en resonancia con la naturaleza, la salud, el bienestar... compartiendo estos valores.
Marío es una persona creativa, un artista que ama la vida y el arte y… read more

What great honour to welcome Sarah in my house! Everytime gentle and willing to help! She has a great eye for organize works! Delized us with great ayurvedic meals and even cannoli sicilani! With the other volunteer we formed a nice group, sharing knowledge and fun! Me, my neighbours and friends look foward to have soon Sarah back with us!

I stood for about 3 weeks at Damasos place and I had a great and wonderful time. I experienced true Italian village life through the encounters with Damasos neighbours and friends, with his house in the middle of the beautiful countryside of Sabina, his fields in Sabina and all the Italian books (and English ones as well!) he has in his house.… read more
Damaso has probably more books than house- if this is possible and together with the other volunteer we had fun taking and reading them, and so we had more things to talk about while we were sitting in front of his chimney- the most cozy place I have every experienced in my workawayers life. The beauty is that it was us who have to collect the wood and small sticks to start the fire and just take care of what is needed in order to have it warm in the evening.
So as well with the food. Collecting green veggies fresh from the field while getting some lessons about wild plants was almost on a daily basis - Working, learning and exchanging was our daily bread. Since Damaso is a big little story teller laughing was also part of the daily basis - he likes to make jokes ;)
Besides the fact that I experienced Damaso as a very generous host who wants his volunteers to have fun and realize some local opportunities, he is very interested and willing to exchange knowledge, time and even friends and neightbors:D. Conversations, reading, laughing were our evening program. But even if all of us were tired, than we were just sitting there in front of the chimney and watching the fire burn- a meditation with open eyes for me.

The work I had to do was divers. I helped him to paint the bathroom, I harvested plants, helped with other staff int he fields, cooked a lot and kept the house clean. Damaso wanted to give me tasks that I feel comfortable with - in the sense of feeling capable of completing the task with a good outcome. I experienced him as very attentive and willing to adapt to my needs.
His generosity and awareness wanted me to give my best at all time.

Without a car there is the possibility to walk around the area and see the most beautiful parts of Italy. With a car you have more possibilities, but since Damaso is a very sociable person, we had many occasions in which we went to towns close by.

I left Damasos place with so many nice encounters and a warm feeling. Since he allowed me to take a book with me- my return is for sure:) Thank you so much Dama! I am very happy to have you had as my host ! big hug o/

My time with Antonio was nourishing and inspiring. So far I ve stayed two times at his place for various days and I am happy to have met a person like him.
He is supporting, full of topics to talk about, enthusiastic about life and he has a big heart that you will feel in every moment. My passion for cultures merged with his Chilean - Italian… read more

I had a very good experience with Sarah at my place. She is a very quiet and respectful person. she helped me a lot taking care of the kitchen, making very good Ayurvedic meals, she helped me in the studio with some very simple but challenging work (taking off and clearing very little seeds from the from the fruit, she had a very big patience) and… read more

Lorenzo is an accurate, generous, interested and interesting person. I spent about 3 weeks with him and helped him with cooking and a bit with his jewellery. He showed me how he is processing his amazingly beautiful and unique art and was happy to share it with me. We had nice conversations about life and various occasions in which he showed his… read more

I am already here for two months and still I can get enough of Albertos presence and his qualaties as a therapist, as a person, and now also as a friend. There is no way to put this extraordinary experience into words. Alberto is a person that is looking for its equal. His willingness, his passion and over all- his ability- to bring people in… read more contact with themselfs and with the universe is nothing more but beautiful and unique. Within this process, he shows more patient and respect than I have ever seen from a human being before. But what really gives life to these qualities is the heart that he puts into his actions. All he wants is that everyone is good- he opens his door and his heart to enable people to reach this goal. He does not only do that with me but with so many people. And he does not do that as a a duty but rather because it makes him happy.
Besides all that, his knowledge about Ayurveda, Healing Methods and Life in general is immense. And rather than braging with this, he uses this quality to enable you to become a better version of yourself, without judgement, only respect and appreciation.
The work in this place requieres defenetly initiative. You have to be capable to ask for what there is need to be done. There are planty of things that have to be done- eather in the garden, where I already planted a lot, in the garage, where we re buliding up order and structure, the home itself, where there is everything to be done that a home requires. But also preparing ayurvedic food, drying herbs, making tee, ayurvedic cooking, everything in one place. And the very beatiful thing is, that he doesnt just abandon you with your work. All my experience here is sharing a life together.
This is the place where I wanted to give my very best even in the tasks that I didnt like. And this is because Alberto gives me so much, that it is my wish and my need, to do just my very best, to give something back.
Everyone who is interested in the things he is describing in his profile, will get 100%, but I ask everyone to also give 100%.

Regarding the place. this is an industrial area, just like Alberto describes. With the bike and the car you will get to the most beautiful places. But even the garden in the backyard is wonderful. So no beach next door, but maybe Alberto will take you there to spend some hours at the see together.

Thumbs up. Un abbrachi Alberto

My experience in Nemea was extraordinary warm, nourishing for body, mind & soul and exciting.
The place is wonderful and has a lot to offer. It is pure and colorful nature with lots of beautiful souls in an area quiet abandoned from civilization. Because of that, I even more had the feeling of experience a Macro-Cosmos within an Micro-Cosmos. The… read more
