The guest house is a beautiful and magical place. I felt so much light and love during my stay, so much that I ended up staying longer than originally planned and I'm so grateful for that. The volunteer work was very chill, and for me it felt like cleaning and taking care of my own home. There was a lot of freedom for creativity and expressing myself. I spent a lot of time baking, cooking and drawing/painting at Casa. I felt welcomed and accepted just the way I am. Thank you for this place and especially the people who made my two months this beautiful<3

My time at the guest house was so good that I had to extend my stay. One month just isn't enough here, it feels like a family. I felt comfortable and welcome from day one. Santo and Gaby are incredible managers, always up to help. The tasks are simple, and since the place feels like home, you end up working with a lot of love. the guest house exceeded my expectations, everything they say the volunteer experience offers is true, and even more. Having 3 days off gives you plenty of time to explore Sicily. t's been an amazing experience, and even better that I get to stay another month jajajaja

I had a beautiful month in the guest house, the atmosphere is relaxed, perfect for connecting with other travelers but also having your own time. The house is magic, full of energy, filled with love and little details. I really enjoyed going to the market, the outdoor cinema around the corner or just soaking in the Sicilian culture. I think every traveler should stop by the guest house at least once 🌿 Super grateful for this experience, thanks to Santo, Gabi and the best volunteers 🤍

My experience at the guest house was truly amazing! Volunteering here is something I really recommend, as it gives you deep connections with people around you, great possibilities to explore the city and chance to meet new people daily. The work is fair and this place focuses on community, where as we help each other and share things! I would love to come back in the future 🌞
