It was my first volunteering experience and I couldn't be happier with the decision I made. Everyone welcomed me warmly and I met a wonderful group of people. And of course, Taormina is a magical place. I highly recommend it

I felt very welcomed since my first day in the hostel🫶🏼 It was very social and the staff crew was an amazing mix of different nationalities. We were all like a big family! We had dinner together, went out for drinks together and obviously all worked together as a team. It was my first ever volunteering experience and I absolutely loved it🤍

The experience was simply incredible, I will never forget it! Everyone treated me very well and I felt at home every single day. The hostel is very cozy and clean. I will never forget the afternoons on the terrace with the best view of Taormina. The work is super easy and flexible, I have nothing to complain about. I only have compliments. I hope to see you again. GRAZIE.

I absolutely loved my time in Taormina, beautiful area and easy going hostel. Hours and work are relaxing and chill, so much to see around here. Sicilia is beautiful. Francesco and Pervina are lovely and easy to get along with. Don't miss out on this opportunity.

I loved my experience at the hostel, the staff were always very friendly and welcoming since day one, felt like a little family ❤️ our accommodation was just perfect, the schedule is fair and flexible if there's any request. I had plenty time for myself and for exploring other places in Sicily. Taormina is beautiful, and the hostel is very well located. The whole team made my stay very special, I'm grateful for the time I spent there.
