This was my second time volunteering at the hostel Milano Centrale. I had already been here two years ago, and I chose to come back because of the feeling of home this place gave me the first time. There's something truly special about the hostel—the atmosphere, the energy, but above all, the people. The team is made up of incredible human beings who immediately make you feel like you belong. They're not just coworkers or staff; they're real friends. Deep down, I know I'll come back again—because places like this, and people like them, stay with you.

The hostel was my home for a month, and I absolutely loved it! I met so many people, learned so much more about the Italian language and culture, made great friends, and learned so many things during my stay at the hostel. The staff is super friendly, and that makes the stay even more enjoyable. I'm going to miss this place so much. I'm so happy to have done my first volunteering project with them! Without a doubt, one of the best experiences of my life. I truly felt like I was in the right place! Thank you all! 🩵

Where to start from? If I could live there forever, I would. The hostel feels like home. The stuff, the other volunteers and the guests made this experience the best it could possibly be. Sharing your time and emotions with people is the key to make this trip unforgettable. The shifts are so enjoyable that you won't even feel like working and you have plenty of time to explore North Italy. Cannot find anything negative, sincerely. I will be back one day! Thank you the hostel ❤

This was the best volunteering experience I've ever had! Good food, respected working hours, friendly people, a great location, and a lively atmosphere, but at the same time, with space for those who want to relax. I worked as an artist and it was an excellent experience. A special thanks to the host, Rafael, who helped me with everything I needed from the beginning. Thank you for everything the hostel team ♥️

Loved the hostel! You make friends with most of the employees there almost instantly, they are very welcoming and fun. Everyone does their best to help you with anything you need. Sometimes a little chaotic because the communication gets a little lost, but it always works out well. Just be comfortable with a little flexibility, remember you're on Italian time!! They provide you with accommodation, multiple meals per day, and almost everything else you could need. Very chill vibe at the hostel, I recommend applying to any of their branches!!
