It was my first WorldPackers experience. The place is beautiful, very welcoming. For those who want an experience in a place far from the city and with lots of nature, this is the ideal place. I met a lot of people from different parts of the world, mainly because they receive a lot of volunteers too :)

I've had an amazing experience at the guest house. Matteo and Elena are amazing, and they have a lovely family. The other family members, staff and volunteers are super kind and helpful. You'll be fully submerged in the Italian lifestyle and learn Italian amazingly fast. The requested tasks aren't too difficult, and free days can be arranged easily. You'll meet a lot of international and local guests, who like to have small talks and get to know you better. I highly reccomend this place if you like to work in a great team and get to know diverse cultures.

Minha primeira experiência de voluntariado não poderia ter sido melhor!! Fiz amigos pra vida toda e tive experiências que guardarei pra sempre. Apesar de termos muitas tarefas diárias por ser um lugar relativamente grande, a equipe da sempre o seu melhor para incluí-lo e fazer você se sentir em casa,além de manter o ambiente leve com bom humor e boas vibrações! Além disso a paisagem é fantástica. Se está procurando um lugar afastado pra se conectar com a cultura local, é uma ótima opção Aprendi muitas coisas e pratiquei bastante italiano

It was good, work schedule really depended on the tasks. Some days the work was 6-8 hours while occasionally it was only 2-3. The airbnb is an hour walking distance from Conzano and an hour to other neighboring towns. The view from the guest house is beautiful but it did become very isolated seeing as most destinations were far away and it became tiring to walk everytime. The work was really easy, just cleaning and preparing dishes or clean bed rooms for clientele.

It was a lovely experience with the whole family that runs the B&B, wish I could spend more time learning about the history of the place, the wine and the things they produce! Reccomendation: plan your grocery shopping because it's quite far from everything!!

Recebemos as ordens do Simone, que é o faz-tudo de lá. Mas não temos um horário certo para os turnos a gente fica o dia todo em função do espaço e as vezes trabalhamos muito. O voluntário não tem nenhuma autonomia. Não tem opção de transporte público, a gente depende de carona para tudo. O mercadinho mais próximo fica a 1h caminhando. O que diz no anúncio não é verdade. Não tem nenhuma refeição inclusa e não tem bicicletas. O lugar é lindo, mas converse e combine tudo antes de ir, assim você não vai ser pego desprevenido. E converse com voluntários que já estiveram lá, com eles sabemos a real.

Thank you Mariano, we updated all the informations as you suggested! Normally we explain all doubts during video calls with our potential.volunteers.

I have to say that during the intewiev with you, you wasn't clear as well, not mentioning that you were needing us to sign some documents in order to be legal in the country, and also not mentioning that you could not do efforts or task too heavy because of your "healt" (?!)

You are great chatter but maybe more like the 'city guy' not made to leave in a farm, were the work is tough, so as you asked to leave in advance we were super happy to support your request.

Best wishes for your future btw!

At first it was a bit hard, this was my first volunteer and what it is offer in the website is not 100% reality. It is importante to arrange the working schedules and days off beforehand with the host, but once done, they are respected. The place is a bit isolated, so it is important as well to plan trips and shopping days to go with someone from the guest house. The work was fair and the environment was very friendly. At the end of the day, It really felt like home. I'm very grateful with Matteo, his family and the other volunteers for this amazing experience.

Overall this was not a terrible experience, but it was my first with WorldPackers, and what the host offers on the website was not reality. The position lacks structure and direction, as well as communication and leadership from the host. This B&B is very isolated, so the opportunity to explore during time off is extremely limited unless you have your own transportation, or find someone to drive you and pick you up from a train station. Matteo is kind and has a lovely family. The opportunity to interact with the other volunteers was a way to make friends for life.
