We really enjoyed our 10 months stay at Viviana's beautiful house. The house is beautiful and rustic with many incredible pieces of furniture from all over the world which makes it interesting, unique and really cozy. During the stay we were located in the lower house which is separate from Viviana's place. The houses are surrounded by a beautiful

When we came Viviana was really welcoming, showed us around and gave us her best tips. We also stayed with our dog and we really appreciated it. Viviana is an incredibly interesting person, she is an artist with a vast knowledge around many topics. She is also really well travelled and it was very interesting to talk to her and get to know her better. She was respectful and we also had our personal space.
The work we were doing there was a little bit of everything, mostly some maintenance of both the houses and the garden. When we were together with Viviana we worked together in the garden for a couple of hours a day. She was always really flexible with the time and tasks that we have to do.
In general we are really grateful for this experience and opportunity to experience life in Umbria and get to know each other. We felt really welcomed and appreciated.
Thank you for everything!Só é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.

We stayed at Vivianas place for 2 months and had a very pleasant stay there.
The house is situated in a really beautiful area surrounded by many trees and the umbrian landscape is just amazing.
At the beginning and the end of our stay Viviana was still there so she took her time to explain everything to us and show us around. The communication
… read more with her was always easy, even when we tried to speak Italian she was always very patient with our efforts ;)
We always agreed together what kind of work we could do this day and Viviana also took care of our needs.
While being there we saw a lot of Umbria which is definitly a culturally rich and interesting region and also Montecastello di Vibio is in the summer months quite a vibrant town regarding its small size.
I guess it is probably a good idea to have a car while staying here bacause the bus services are not very frequent and otherwise it can be a bit tricky to move around.
In the garden and in the house there is always something to do and I think for someone whos also has some skills in craftmans work this place woukd be perfect and alsp very helpful for Viviana.
So thanks Viviana for our lovely stay and it was very nice getting to know you!Só é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.

Wow!
Firstly I’d like to apologise for my very late feedback.
Viviana, lovely Viviana. What an extraordinary experience for a city boy. We immediately got on very well and I really felt like I could be myself. The accommodation is really special, comfortable, very peaceful, spacious, private and with a glorious countryside vista . You are

Her cooking skills are beautiful and varied. She is very attentive, communicative, funny, clever and has a lovely laid back vibe. She took me out to many local towns, festivals and markets and introduced me to lots of her friends all of whom were lovely and interesting people.
The work was varied and very enjoyable. I was pruning trees, re-constructing a retaining dry stone wall, repairing machinery, chopping and stacking wood, pond care, all sorts! Her house is also beautiful and surrounded by woods and hidden gardens.
I could have easily stayed all year
Grazie mille Viviana!
I really hope we see each other again XXSó é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.

I stayed at Viviana's place for about two weeks and if I had to describe my stay in one word it would be FANTASTIC. Viviana has a beautiful house in Umbria with her only little "forest" situated around the house. I have helped Viviana with all sorts of task in the garden and on the computer. Viviana is really easy going and we always discussed
… read more between the two of us what type of work we would do on that day, and she always took into account what type of work would be good for that specific day so that for example on a hot day we wouldnt be working in the sun. Viviana is full of stories and shows genuine interest in other people. I learned a lot from her and we shared lots of interesting stories but equally as much laughters. The house is nearby the beautiful village Montecastello di Vibio which has a Medieval vibe and only a short 10 minutes walk away.Só é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.

Vivianna is the kindest and most interesting person that we met on our journey. It was wonderful to stay at her place, talk and drink wine with excelent company.

This was my second experience when I was a volunteer in Italy. And the first time I visited the Umbria. A wonderful edge with a beautiful nature, landscape and great people. Viviana is very kind hearted woman, creative, perfectly educated painter. She knows how to live harmoniously with herself, others and all sentient beings around her. We spent

We had a lot of fun working together and some interesting conversations about a variety of topics. Viviana is a great teacher, and really helped me out learning Italian. We've visited a various beautiful places in Umbria . We ate delicious food and we've had taste of fine local wine. Also we've visited some her's friends. I met a lot of interesting, nice people of various nationalities, which creates art, raising animals, live in the peace with nature and their relatives. I hope that Viviana was pleased with my company in the same way was I. I really hope we can keep in touch and meet again.Só é possível entrar em contato com Workawayers com assinaturas ativas.

Saulius has been the perfect work-away one could dream of. He is a very competent and creative person who could find solutions for the many different tasks to tackle in my place. He is an exellent ceramist and wood craftman and could repair windows and doors and "pergola" ; with his sophisticated sense of estetics, he has build a beautiful wooden

My father and I wish to Saulius all the best.

Viviana is a very interesting and loving person. I stayed for one week with her and I got my own house actually to stay in, which was lovely. The work varied a lot from cleaning to moving stones in the garden, and it was always with relaxed attitude and good communication with Viviana. She was so nice to take me to places and visiting her sweet
