Such a great experience!! The work itself is simple and manageable, Giacomo is a helpful leader and the hostel is very cosy. The trade is fair and you get to meet a lot of locals around the town but also so many travellers at the hostel. I would recommend to anyone coming to the hostel as its a very special town and this hostel is a really great place to experience it :)
