Antonio was nice and fun at the start but took me and left me at the place which was in no shape or form a farm. He left me with no food, I got bed bugs every, there was shit all over the place, the water stopped working and he took so long to come pick me back up. His family was amazing, super friendly and kind, but Antonia gave me an overall

Antonello and his family are very loving and welcoming people. We stayed here for one week in a cottage in the mountains. The surroundings are peacefull and beautifull (canyons to walk and swim, and good area for cycling). We didn't do a lot of work. Were possible we tried to help Antonello with the work in the land, cleaning the house and feeding

We took care of our own meals, however Antonello always made sure we were allright or needed something. Overall nice, generous and very kind people. We wish you and your family all the best in the future!Solo puedes ponerte en contacto con workawayers con membresías activas.

Fortunately, Antonello was my first host at WorkAway. He is a very special person who cares about nature, just like me. His property is beautifully located in the mountains. I lived on his property for about three weeks. Among other things, I pruned the trees, took care of the garden, groomed it and took care of the dogs. I highly recommend
… read more Antonello, as he can teach you a lot, as he has already experienced a lot. His three children are also wonderful. I was even invited to dinner at his dear mother's house on one day. Thank you very much for your hospitality!
If you are looking for an interesting and wonderful workaway experience, contact Antonello😁

I stayed in Antonello's house in the hills for around 10 days. My first night was spent in their house in Avola town, where they hosted me so generously.
In the hills I fed the dogs every day and also helped in cleaning and organizing another house which is around 500 meters from the little house. Antonello was very kind and I appreciate that he
… read more was checking in every evening with a message so he was sure I'm fine alone in the house. At moments we had some communication problems because of the language, but nothing major. His kids are very nice ad cute, his mother is a beautiful donna and his dogs are precious. If you stay at Antonello's house in the hills, be sure to visit Cavagrande del Cassibile, a beautiful nature reserve which is very close to the house! Also, be prepared, signal is not always strong and electricity plugs don't go with standard cabels - there is only one adapter you can use.
All in all, for me it was a positive experience and it should be for everyone who wants to spend some time in a calm place surrounded by nature. Thank you for everything!

I've stayed a few days with Antonello who's been very welcoming and eager to show my friends and I scuba diving. We were working in the morning for a few hours then would spend the rest of the day resting, chiling or discussing with Antonello in Italian. He made us drink some local wine from his friends and was super interested in sharing his

Antonello is a gracious and loving man who invited myself and a friend for a while. we worked on his farm improving the area and keeping it clean and tidy. we met much of his family who are all good hearted just like himself and happily watched films and eat pizza together! I had a fantastic stay and fully reccomend to anyone and everyone who

Incredible experience! Antonello is very generous and let me stay one full month despite not being in a good time for him. It felt like having a second family. I will remember for a long time the late night discussions on the roof, the evenings at the beach, the day visiting Ortigia with Nina and Susanna or the hellish path to Lavetti Cava Grande
… read more (well, my mucles will remember pain from this one). Antonello sure is one of a kind. That evening when we broke private property to see wild flamingoes hahaha.
Advice to future workawayers : he does not speak English at all ! (Only his daughter does). You better understand Italian. I learned on the spot.
It might be different from what you expect, we are up in the mountains (aprox. 500m) not in Siracusa. You can only go down with him. Buy food for the week at least. No wifi but you have 4G (only when you are inside the house). Some days, the water stops coming for 5mins or 2 hours. Oh and there are 3 very cute fluffy dogs, they will follow you everywhere :)
Bref, if you want a place to disconnect a bit this is perfect. I think if you love cycling this is for you because the roads are very beautifull around. My god I miss the view from the roof!
You generally work from 9am to 1pm. Don't worry if you are not experienced, it is diverse : watering the plants, pulling out bad weeds in the garden, cutting bad plants from the trees, repairing things, upgrading a little the house, destroying blackberries with a bushcutter or pulling little trees out of the ground with a pickaxe (the latter is very tiring). You are free on the weekend. And you can eat anything from the little garden (tomatoes, lettuce, basil, cucumber,...).
I think the best is to stay one or two weeks.
Kisses to Susan/Naoko who was with me the first week. She was the nicest roommate ^^. And best luck to Sol and Zechiele !
Antonello, sorry if the italian translation is bad I used google. And please thank your mom again for her warm heart, I didn't get to say goodbye to her.
Nina : passare del altra lato xD Let's make a bet : you will gave your driving livense on first try!

Esperienza incredibile! Antonello è molto generoso e mi lascia stare un mese intero nonostante non sia in un buon momento per lui. Sembrava di avere una seconda famiglia. Ricorderò a lungo le discussioni notturne sul tetto, le serate in spiaggia, la giornata in visita a Ortigia con Nina e Susanna o il sentiero infernale per Lavetti Cava Grande (beh, i miei muscoli ricorderanno il dolore di questo). Antonello sicuramente è unico nel suo genere. Quella sera quando abbiamo rotto la proprietà privata per vedere i fenicotteri selvatici hahaha. Consiglio ai futuri trasfertisti: non parla affatto inglese! (Solo sua figlia lo fa). Tu capisci meglio l'italiano. Ho imparato sul posto. Potrebbe essere diverso da quello che ti aspetti, siamo in montagna (circa 500 m) non a Siracusa. Puoi scendere solo con lui. Acquista cibo almeno per la settimana. Niente wifi ma hai il 4G (solo quando sei dentro casa). Alcuni giorni, l'acqua smette di arrivare per 5 minuti o 2 ore. Oh e ci sono 3 cani morbidissimi molto carini, ti seguiranno ovunque :) Bref, se vuoi un posto dove staccare un po' questo è perfetto. Penso che se ami il ciclismo questo è per te perché le strade sono molto belle intorno. Mio dio mi manca la vista dal tetto! In genere lavori dalle 9:00 alle 13:00. Non preoccuparti se non sei esperto, è molto vario: innaffiare le piante, togliere le erbacce cattive dal giardino, tagliare le piante cattive dagli alberi, riparare le cose, migliorare un po' la casa, distruggere le more con un decespugliatore o tirare poco alberi da terra con un piccone (quest'ultimo è molto faticoso). Sei libero nel fine settimana. E puoi mangiare qualsiasi cosa dell'orto (pomodori, lattuga, basilico, cetriolo,...). Penso che la cosa migliore sia rimanere una o due settimane. Baci a Susan/Naoko che è stata con me la prima settimana. Era la coinquilina più simpatica ^^. E buona fortuna a Sol e Zechiele! Antonello, scusa se la traduzione in italiano è pessima ho usato google. E per favore ringrazia ancora tua madre per il suo cuore caldo, non sono riuscito a salutarla. Nina : passare dell'altra lato xD Facciamo una scommessa : al primo tentativo darai il tuo brivido di guida!Solo puedes ponerte en contacto con workawayers con membresías activas.

They were such an great family that I spend just a 2weeks but It’s felt like I’m stayed there for a month!! incredible experience with them. I wish I could stay more longer… The work that you’ll do is basically glass cut and give water the plants in the garden with a hose for 2-3hours in a day. I really like to work in the garden. After worked,
… read more you’ll have to make own meal by your self. I stayed really good cottage there has. Double bed and clean shower room and kitchen.
