I had the greatest time in casa Bisetti! I spent the holidays there and even thought I didn't know anyone before I arrived they made me feel like home from day one. It's such a beautiful community-based place and it's wonderful to be part of it! Michael, Gareth, Elinor, Erez, Charlie and every single person there made my stay the best. The job is easy, the town is beautiful and you'll have everything you need. I have no complaints and just wanna be back soon!! I'm sure no one would regret the experience :)

My time at Centro has been incredible. From the day I arrived I was welcomed with open arms by all staff and other volunteers and was shown great kindness. The accomodation was perfect, my own private room looking out at the mountains and the best common room anybody could ask for, where we relaxed in the night with food, music and movies. As far as the work goes, it was straightforward and well-presented by the host; I washed dishes and cleaned up tables after guests had finished eating. It was fun, light and simple work. Hands down the best worldpackers I've done so far 😎

This is my second time at the Center, and as always, I've had a really good experience. It's a beautiful place surrounded by nature, full of peace and good energy. Everyone is kind, and there's a very special atmosphere. I think the schedule and organization could be improved a bit, but overall it's a place I'll always feel connected to and would definitely come back to. 🌿💫
