***********************

Olá! Somos Erica @erica.gaspani e Gustavo @guhbressan, dois italianos nascidos no Brasil que exploram o mundo. Atualmente moramos na Itália e temos a missão de visitar todos os 196 países e nos tornaremos multilíngues. É por isso que temos todas as vacinas e seguros de saúde em dia. Somos pessoas bem humoradas, éticas, proativas e práticas. Adoramos conhecer novas pessoas e fazer amigos. Além disso, aceitamos animais de estimação e somos pontuais! Uma curiosidade é algo que nos define e estamos sempre em busca de aprender coisas novas. Estamos focados em aprimorar nosso inglês e descobrir a história e a cultura dos países que visitamos (estamos conhecendo Portugal), além de experimentar a vinificação e a comida típica local. Aliás, Erica é uma sommelier de vinhos excepcional. Como descendentes de italianos e brasileiros, adoramos preparar pratos típicos de nossos países, tanto doces quanto salgados. Estamos sempre dispostos a experimentar novos sabores e não temos restrições alimentares. Respeitamos todas as crenças e culturas e nos sentimos confortáveis em qualquer ambiente. Adoramos fazer atividades físicas como corrida, ioga, natação, ciclismo e musculação. Temos experiência em voluntariado em diversos países, incluindo Brasil, Itália e Estados Unidos, Nicaragua e Panamá. Nossas habilidades são diversas e podemos ajudar em muitas coisas, desde manutenção doméstica e culinária até criação de conteúdo digital e jardinagem. Estamos sempre em busca de aprender novas habilidades e compartilhar o que sabemos. Falamos português, italiano, espanhol e inglês fluentemente. Erica está aprendendo Francês. Além disso, adoramos mergulhar na cultura local e aprender sobre os idiomas falados nos países que visitamos. Adoraríamos compartilhar nossa jornada com você! Fique à vontade para nos enviar uma mensagem. Obrigado pela oportunidade!

I participated as a volunteer here for two weeks and the experience was incredible.

Erica and Gustavo were an excellent addition to the winery team. Both are knowledgeable, hard working, and fun to be around. Gustavo is very good with tools and systems and Erica is a genius with wine and food. I felt very lucky to have had their help for six weeks. Couldn't have done it without them. Thanks guys!

We stayed for a month and a half with Adam, James and other volunteers, it's a pet friendly environment, there are lots of kittens and the team's best friend, Rockie, who is a big and very docile dog.

We were able to learn about the cultivation of vines and the entire wine production chain, bottling, labeling and storing, and especially tasting.… read more

We were guests of Mercedes and Andrew for a period of 4 weeks. It is difficult to describe in words the magnitude of our experience, but it was extraordinary. As soon as we arrived, we immediately felt a warm feeling of being at home. Mercedes is an excellent cook and Érica learned several culinary tricks, in addition to improving her English.

Linda and her daughter Giulia are kind, the cats and the dog are very docile. Linda kitchen very well. We slept in an open air room, comfy bed and warm blankets. There's plenty of work to do there and for all abilities, she tells you what to do and you're free to do it however you see fit. Back in Siracusa we helped her cut wood, organize rooms,… read more
