There's not enough words to describe how amazing my experience was with Iris and the girls I stayed with. This was my first Worldpackers experience and I couldn't have got luckier. From start to finish I immediately felt at home, Iris is one of the most welcoming and kind hearted people I have ever met. Truly an experience of a lifetime. Thank you again Iris, I can't wait to return!

Thanks to Iris, her family and her friends, my time turned out to be something, that can't be described in just a few words and my gratitude is enormous💙. The place is breathtaking, each new day brought more and more energy, but also true happiness. The work usually required effort, but it wasn't discouraging. Also had a chance to meet wonderful and fun people during my stay😚. Best place I could ever dream about✨.

The problem to me was that I was the only male so I had to do the hard stuff like cleaning chicken house from poop, lifting things, i liked the experience at first but after some days i started to have back pain and I also didnt like the rest of the day (there is not much stuff to do in the place, and we were just 2 worldpackers, maybe if we were 3 or 4 it would have been better). Not a bad experience if you want to stay away from city and comfort but for me 2 weeks were to much (i got away after 1)

The experience was incredible, in a magical place surrounded by nature that facilitates meditation and disconnecting. The small village welcomes you and immerses you in Italian culture. Iris is kind and hardworking, occasionally organizing trips to the beach or nearby towns. The work is physical, and while the profile photos show the houses we maintain, we stayed in an isolated and somewhat abandoned house with no electricity and water connected to the river, which is often unreliable, along with limited hygiene.

Wow! My time at Isca was absolutely brilliant. From the moment I arrived, Iris (and everyone else in Isca) was so kind and welcoming and I felt completely at home. There is plenty of opportunity to enjoy the nature (including a waterfall and the beach!), the village, and surrounding towns. The work is physical at times, but it is always very rewarding to see the results of your work, and Iris always makes time for an espresso and snack break! It was lovely to cook together as a group of volunteers, and the living set up was dreamy. I really had the most amazing time, and highly recommend it!

The experience was amazing! Iris and other people were kind, always willing to help, open. They made me feel so safe from the very beginning. The atmosphere was magical. I really enjoyed cooking together, our family dinners and long talks. This place is surreal to look at. We lived on a hill with a view on the beautiful village and sea. You can also go to the river, waterfall. The work was physical and quite tiring but it really pays off also for your health. You are surrounded by nature all the time which is great. I learnt a lot there. I will be forever grateful that I got this chance!

It is a sensory experience, seeing yourself surrounded by nature, and a social experience, connecting with wonderful people. It was physically and mentally transformative, for the better. I will carry it in my heart as something beautiful. I just left the place and I missed it. It is incomparable.

This was my first worldpackers trip and also my first time visiting Calabria, so I had no idea how my experience would be like. And it turned out to be the best experience I could ever have! Iris is the such a warmhearted, empowering person and not only did I learn about farming, but also about her inspiring life and the beauty of humanity and more. All of these are truly lifetime lessons! Iris communicates clearly about plans/instructions of the task and in the afternoon she sometimes asks us to join her to the market or to the beach:) For nature lovers this place is truly a paradise✨

Iris was an amazing host! She did a really good job of balancing out work and taking the other Worldpackers out to give us a real authentic Italian countryside experience. It was truly a memorable experience!
