Description
Stefano and I are going to take another gap "year" (possibly more), after the wonderful one we took in 2017. This time, though, we do not have any time limit and we look forward to seeing what life brings to us.
We did a few workaway experiences with gardening, catering, English teaching, hostel, beekeeping and animal care in the past. Now, we would love to travel again while doing new workaway experiences. We would also love to learn new skills and experience different ways of life.

Renata is a very energetic and special person. She is completely committed to helping animals and make their lives better. And you will find yourself doing a dirty job in order to help her in her mission! The job itself is not heavy, it's mainly cleaning droppings both at home and in the shelter.

What a life changing experience! We spent 3 weeks at the clinic and we loved the staff, the people... and the animals so much that we came back again for 2 more weeks later on! Since we were going to live in Thailand for a while, we even ended up fostering 2 puppies.

Rita and Stefano,
They volunteered at The farm for about 10 days. They are very responsible at work, emotional and sociable with all other volunteers. We appreciate their contribution to the farm even though their time spent on the farm is short. We hope to see you again in the future. Thank you for your contributions to the farm

It was the second time here. It is always enriching and amusing to spend the time in a beautiful surrounding with those wonderful animals. Gianluca is a very nice person and you can learn a lot from him! San Gimignano is one of the best spots in Tuscany and it is just around the corner. Thank you, Gianluca and see you soon!

With Juliya, Adri and their family we had the most wonderful welcome and experience! Indeed, all of them treated us as part of the family since the beginning. We learned new and interesting tasks everyday and we did not even have the feeling of working, actually. The amount of work was more than fair and they also helped us to visit the… read more

Staying with Paula and Juan and their helpers has been great experience! They were all so funny and caretaking. Work was not hard at all (tasks depended on shifts) and we had plenty of free time!

Rita and Stefano are the most delightful couple you could ever wish to meet. They worked well together in all the jobs given to them, they also worked very well independently. They were very happy to take on big tasks with a smile and enthusiasm.

We spent with them 2 weeks: time flew so quickly doing very different (not heavy) tasks like painting, cleaning, fruit-picking, gardening, building... They would always make sure that we liked the jobs we were given.
