This was my first WorldPackers experience and it truly could not have been better. My time at Seredipa was outstanding—the work was satisfying and clearly communicated, Mariana was incredibly welcoming and full of good recommendations for what to see and do nearby, Emanuele cooked amazing food every day—I cherished every moment. The location, though not close to public transport, is walking distance from the beach and Emanuele and Marco are great about driving you to other locations, so I felt like I got to see a lot of the area despite being a ways out of town.

I really enjoyed my time at Seredipa! Everyone was super nice and made me feel welcome. The tasks are easy and the work hours are respected. It's really rural but Emanuele and Marianna took me to some places with the car and we also went to Palermo twice. And there are beautiful beaches 30 minutes by foot from the house! I would really recommend volunteering there but just consider that there is not soo much to do without a car.

Marco was a great host and he ensured that we experienced everything the area had to offer. His father cooked us amazing meals and took good care of us. This opportunity is perfect for someone who is willing to work hard and wants an immersive Sicilian experience with the most extraordinary swimming spots.

I am really thankfull for having the opportunity to meet this place. Emma and Marco welcomed me well. Emma cook delicious food and I have a special care for him. Castellamare is breath taking and thanks to Marco I met amazing places. The work hours are respected. The work at the house for summer is about cleaning the rooms for the guest house and help at the house. It is important to be proactive. If you do not mind cleaning I would recommend this opportunity to you.
