Lovely location and Patricia is lovely! Patricia is very clear with work and communication is very clear and straightforward. Also really nice way to be part of local business in Zurich

6 hours of work is tiring but manageable, however, the supervision is quite strict it's like working for a company. Patricia is a great person, but a bit reserved. Sometimes I feel like only received orders while working or not. Be extremely clean, if you leave even the slightest mess, you'll get scolded. 20% of my working hours were spent in the garden, and I was still charged 30 francs for "not doing a good job." Despite all this, it was still worth it because Switzerland is very expensive. But it's always good to remember that volunteering, it's not a worker-boss relationship

Unfortunately, my experience with Rogério was not positive. He showed very little motivation or initiative, and his work had to be constantly checked. There were repeated mistakes, and he seemed uninterested in whether the results were correct. In daily life, hygiene was a serious issue. The kitchen and bathroom were often left dirty, and I had to speak to him multiple times about basic cleanliness. I gave him the option to leave or either improve his behavior and contribute CHF 10/day

I had the pleasure to work at the home and Maha café and I'm impressed not only by the delicious food, but also by Patricia, who embodies everything admirable in a business owner. Her energy and dedication are truly inspirational and I could see her managing various tasks at the same time and inspired me to pursue my own dreams with the same commitment. I learned to decorate and paint the stand for the streetfood festival, cook, prepare the ingredients, assist customers in english and french, being a casheer during the festival and create marketing social networks content. Thank you! 😃

This was my very first experience alone with WorldPackers. I've really enjoyed my time there, even if the work to do, in order to help Patricia with her move to another house, was a bit hard for me, that I don't have a very muscular body haha, but I've learned how to to dismantle furniture :) After some days of work, I was feeling a bit tired, and when I asked Patricia if I could have done something lighter the following week, she has been really comprehensive and told me I could have helped her also with some online things. I've loved Zurich, and also Bern and Basel!

My arrival was easy managed to find Patricia's place with the detailed directions she shared with me. I would recommend Tapioca Swiss Market to volunteers willing to work hard and are into marketing and web designers. I was specially for this period to help her clean her apartment for rental - it's a pleasant place and quite you do your work and have time to explore the city.

My experience with Patricia and Tapioca Swiss Market was overall a really good one! The place is located only 15mins with train from the city centre, there was access to bikes and was offered tips and recommendations of the city! I had a comfortable stay, and Patricia was very friendly and caring with us, the volunteers. The project was intense, setting up the business' website, but Patricia was very open and flexible with the working hours, and communicative about things needed. Overall, a great place to learn a lot about startups, and explore Zurich!

The experience with the home Swiss Market was enriching for my professional path. I also had the opportunity to connect with the local culture and habits. It is a great opportunity for those who are looking to broaden personal and professional perspectives. I recommend and would come back to Switzerland again. Who knows one day... thank to Patrícia for the experience. Dankeschön!

Had a lovely time staying here. It's slightly away from the center of Zürich, but the transportation is really good and you can get there in 30mins on bus/train. There's also a bike you can you use but it takes about an hour each way. I was able to use the kitchen to cook my own food as along as I cleaned up after myself, which was nice and the bed was really comfy. I shared a room with another girl from Worldpackers for a couple of days but no issues :)
