Antonio, Aurora, Flavio, and their parents are absolutely amazing! They welcomed me and another volunteer like family and shared their culture in such a warm, personal way. The hostel work, mainly tidying and cleaning, was fun and very flexible, which I loved. Toro is a small but lively town full of kind people, with a market right in front of the hostel, and it's also very close to Campobasso, the regional capital.! Overall, my time there felt like a dream, and I hope I was able to help Antonio and his family 🤗✨

First volunteer ever. I'm from Argentina and I was 12 days in the hostel helping with painting and decorating. I super recommend this volunteer for people who want to be in a calm place, to Connect with yourself. I was sharing the experience with other volunteer form turkey, if not it could be super solitary. The town is super beautiful and the hostel too. Antonio's family is always supporting, they invited me for lunch in festivity days. In the town people don't speak english, only Italian, I found some ones speaking in Spanish. The Hours working were really flexible! Love toro 10/10 ;)

I had a wonderful experience at the hostel! Antonio was very flexible in the art process, I felt very appreciated the whole time I was there! His sister was very kind and showed me around Toro and Campobasso. Overall a very relaxing experience in a lovely quiet town! To get to Toro i had to take 2 trains and 2 busses, so be warned it is a significant journey from the airport haha. Definitely worth it though!

I had such an amazing time at Hotel the hostel! Antonio and his family are great. I didn't get to see Antonio in person but got to meet his sister and parents. His sister Aurora and her friends were very welcoming and I feel like I really got the real Toro experience. Work load was perfect as it was less about the hours and more about just making sure you are on track and getting your task done. I did painting and felt the time spent was equal to what was agreed upon. There is a really pretty balcony which I enjoyed painting on and eating meals up there. Perfect if you want a relaxing escape

My first Worldpackers experience at the hostel was amazing! As a solo traveller, I was nervous, but Antonio made it easy by sharing the bus schedule, and the hostel is right by the stop. Though he wasn't in Toro, he was always helpful, and his friends and family were super welcoming—offering rides, good company, and lots of support. My task was flexible and stress-free. Big thanks to Aurora and Francesco too! Toro is a small, charming town with lovely people—I'd love to return someday and stay even longer.

I highly recommend staying at the hostel in Toro :) the hostel is cozy, comfortable and in the heart of little town Toro, from where you can go to the city of Campobasso. I applied for the artist position and enjoyed my creative work which was very flexible and satisfying :) the only suggestion is I'd like to contact more during the stay with others, but it was agreed on previously that I would be the only volunteer then. Overall I highly recommend!

I had an absolutely wonderful time with the hostel and Antonio. Lovely location, and the hostel is lively with previous worldpackers' artwork. It was flexible, had great communication, and was overall a very fun and relaxing time.

I had an incredible experience in Toro, and I'm sad that it's over! The other volunteers and the locals were wonderful, and made my time there more than worth it. If you're looking for a strict routine and planned itinerary, this isn't that. At the hostel you set your own pace and create your own projects. Guidance is loose. My favorite parts of volunteering here were the Toro bridge, nights in Campobasso, and talking on the terrace at the hostel. I made lifelong connections. I will treasure my Summer in Toro. Thank you so much Antonio for hosting me, I hope to come back someday!

My stay at the hostel was nice, unfortunately i was all by myself but it was still a cosy place which is surrounded by nature. Even though Toro is small, there's a nice local community there ! The job is easy, no pressure and you will work in a safe environment. Keep in mind english is not their first language but antonio and his family will always try to communicate as much as they can with you. :) If you seek for nature, calm and authenticity you're in the right place !

This was my first worldpackers experience and it was amazing! I had a lot of creative freedom in my work and the hours was what was planned. Antonio and his family are lovely people who made me feel really welcome as well as help me basic things like driving me to places. Overall I recommend:)
