My experience in Sammatz was unique. It was the first time I left home to try an experience like this, my first time with Worldpackers, and I couldn't have been luckier. They have managed to create over the years a community that is a wonderful place. The working hours were always fragmented and the work was always done in groups with other volunteers from all around the world, which made it easy to always feel like part of a big family. An experience I recommend to everyone and that I can't wait to repeat. A simple 'thank you' will never be enough, and as I told you, we'll see again. ❤️​❤️​

Sammatz it's a beautiful place to stay, enjoy the amenities and meet people all around the world. I connected a lot and made a lot of friends along the way. There's a whole variety of different jobs but be aware that some may not be available if you don't speak German. You work for around 6.30 hours per day, but it can sometimes be more or less. Work was a bit tiring because the hours can be very far apart, so you need to organize ourselves very well to make out the most of your free time. The hosts will really help you if something it's wrong or if something unexpected happens.

Sammatz is an excellent place to connect with people from all over the world. The community is incredibly kind, and with the vast space, there's always something to do. You can work in various areas like feeding the farm animals, gardening, farming, and construction. However, keep in mind that cleaning is a frequent task, and sometimes there may be more cleaning duties than others. It's also a great opportunity to improve your English. I thank Sammatz for allowing me to meet and connect with amazing people

Sammatz was my 1st volunteering experience. I really loved my stay of 4 weeks mainly because of the people I met from all over the world. We were over 40 nationalities and I made great friends. The working hours were always respected. I worked in: garden, cleaning, bakery, Cafe, stables, babysitting. Except for the baking, I wasn't really passionate about the other jobs, but it was balanced out in the eventful amazing evenings with the volunteers. I am not 100% sure that everything is as eco, but I am not informed enough to judge. I recommended the experience, but be prepared to be tired ;)

It's nice to have contact with people from different parts of the world. But it's important to say that the shifts are very spread out, so sometimes you will start very early and finish very late because you will have several little breaks during the day. Also cleaning bathrooms, showers and kitchen does not count as working hours. Furthermore there is a lot of food waste, and considering that it was supposed to be a sustainable community, this should be improved.

All the people I worked with at Sammatz were really lovely and always went above and beyond for their community. I loved the vibe and the energy in the blue house, and meeting so many new people! There's always such a strong sense of community and togetherness. I learned a lot, especially in the medicinal fields with Nadja and in the Cafe with Caro, and there's lots of different areas. My only complaints are that the hours could be quite long, eg, from 8.00am to 8.30pm (with breaks in between), and that outside of working, there wasn't actually a lot to do.

If you're looking for a typical exchange to do some tourism, don't go to Sammatz. This is not a place to leave your luggage and take a bus to another city. In Sammatz, you have to be present; you'll work a lot and keep your head (and hands) busy. So, only go there if you want to learn a lot, discover new interests and ways of living, and build strong friendships and memories while doing so. For me, the main two improvable points are the Blue House situation with the teenagers and the extra working hours for kitchen and bathroom cleaning. I hope to return soon! <3

I had a good experience at Sammatz. At first it was a big culture shock, but gradually I understood how their routine and culture worked. If you want to connect with nature, this is the place for you.

Nice place to be. You can know a lot of people, the places is really beautiful and the people of Sammatz it's really kind. Sammatz people work too hard and so do the volunteers, however they usually respect the schedules.
