I loved my experience at the home! Truly so grateful I got to experience this as one of my first work exchanges- Ben and Eric were such welcoming hosts, flexible with work hours, and my favorite part was getting to cook for eachother every day for Lunch and share recipes with one another. The area was also so peaceful and definitely a good escape from reality for a little bit. Overall the work hours were super reasonable and we always found a way to make the tasks fun! Missing Cacio, Panna, and Pistachio already :) 🐈

I couldn't recommend this Worldpackers experience enough! Ben and Eric were the absolute sweetest hosts, and I've never felt more at home. The work we were given was very straightforward and doable, and the hours were perfect! I went with a friend, and we had so much time to explore during our off time. Also, the other volunteers became our best friends along with their adorable cats and kittens (Pistachio was my favorite). But overall, this experience raised my expectations, and now I want to come back every summer!

My experience at the home was simply one of the best I've ever had. Ben and Eric are incredibly welcoming and always willing to help. The work is light and pleasant: we dedicate only three hours in the morning, leaving the rest of the day free to enjoy as we wish. There's also a car available for volunteers, which makes it easy to explore the charming villages in the area. The cultural exchange is truly enriching and makes each day even more special. I came with my sister, and we ended up extending our stay — the home is simply impeccable.

My experience at the home was truly exceptional. It's an experience I'll always remember with great affection. Ben and Eric, thank you so much for always being so kind and for welcoming me into your beautiful home. I really enjoyed the calm atmosphere, the daily routine, and all the little moments we shared (P.S. I absolutely loved both Cacho and Panna , EQUALLY! Haha 🐈) 100% recommended! :)
