The Experience

We (I and my life-partner) need someone helping us in collecting food and feeding the refugees. It doesn't take a lot but it's just an everyday routine we would like to discharge for a couple of days sometimes =)

My time at Giuseppe's place was wonderful! He was very respectful, welcoming and in general a great host. He provided us with a nice little place to stay and was very generous with his car, which helped us a lot since the public transport there wasn't that good. The tasks were explained exactly as they are beforehand and the workload was very light! Overall I had the best time there and hope to come back again!

In one sentence: this experience was even better than i expecte! Giuseppe was an incredible and flexible host, who welcomed us into his home. The communication in daily tasks was transparent and the workload was very light. The apartement was cozy even with 2 people and very clean. I found it helpful when Giuseppe also gave Feedback to our tasks whilst we were there so there would be no miscommunication :). All in all, he is a generous and very respectul host and i would love to visit again sometime :D.

This was mine and my friend's first Worldpackers experience, and honestly it was so perfect I don't want to go anywhere else since I know nothing will compare. Giuseppe was an incredible host who created a relaxed and flexible environment. Even on days when we weren't “free,” the workload was so light , we still had plenty of time to enjoy our day. Most of the tasks involved feeding the animals and sorting vegetables for them. The animals were absolutely adorable with unique personalities so it was impossible not to get attached to them and that made saying goodbye pretty hard :(

Our stay at the shelter was amazing! Giuseppe and Sandra are incredibly nice people and always made sure we were alright. Their place is very beautiful and comfortable. The tasks mainly involved feeding the animals, which was pretty easy and fun. We had a lot of free time which we spent exploring the surroundings and going to the beach. At the beginning of our stay, Giuseppe sent us some helpful locations. We were able to use a car freely, allowing us to get around very easy and flexible. Overall, I highly recommend staying here. We felt very welcome and had a great time!
