Staying with the home and Isabel was a beautiful experience that marked many firsts: my first Worldpackers adventure, my first time in Europe, and my first visit to Italy. From the start, they welcomed me with open arms. the home, a true world traveler, shared her deep love for Italy and always gave the best tips. Isabel's fun, energetic spirit made work feel like play. the home's clear instructions and respect for time made everything easy. I'll forever cherish my time with my new Italian family! ❤️

This was my first worldpackers experience and I don't think I could have found a better place or a better family to start my journey. I had a short but truly wonderful stay with the home and Isabel. I enjoyed learning their routines, their ways, hobbies and their traditions. I loved to share with the home and play with Isabel, a wonderful and sweet girl. the home helped me a lot with transport and information, always ready to help. They are a small but very welcoming, generous and dynamic family, they love music and company. The hours and tasks were precise and always respected. Thank you again!

I stayed at the home's house for 4 months and had an incredible experience. the home and her daughter treated me like part of their family and the entire volunteer agreement was respected. I am very grateful and happy to have had this experience.

Look this place was amazing, the host the home is a very intelligent woman and she helped me through a lot of my plans and trust her work when she gives you advice when you travel. I went to a different every weekend and fell in love with Italy. The host also made it really easy to feel at home same with her kid Isabel. Isabel is such a sweet kid, she's going through that age where she questions you on every thing you say to her 😂 witch sometimes gets a little bit annoying in the morning when you have to get her ready for school, but I guarantee it'll be impossible to not fall in love with her.
