My first experience with worldpackers was truly amazing!! The staff and other volunteers where so supportive, open and made the time fly by! Work was also super manageable. The hostel is located only 30 minutes by foot from the center. I loved it here and can't recommend enough:)💞💞

It was my first experience with Worldpackers, and I didn't really know what to expect! As soon as I arrived, I was warmly welcomed by both the volunteers and the staff. Everyone was incredibly kind, friendly, and fun, and the work was exactly as described. It was without a doubt a month I will never forget, and one where I made friendships that will last a lifetime! I'm very grateful for this experience <3

My stay at the hostel was absolutely amazing. I immediately felt welcomed by the volunteers and the staff. Everyone was kind and open, whenever I had a question, I felt comfortable asking, and everyone did their best to help. The work was simple (3 Shifts × 8 h) and you are left with plenty of free time. I felt truly appreciated for my work and really enjoyed my time. All our concerns and ideas were taken seriously. You really feel like part of the team here. I met so many amazing people and will miss everybody a lot. I would highly recommend coming to this hostel!

As a first time volunteer i had some worries before arriving, but i had a great time here as the workers, volunteers & antonella were very friendly and welcoming i mostly worked in the kitchen and the job is very easy to understand and do, you finish around 6 hours later and you're left with a lot of free time to explore the city and spend time with the other volunteers even when you decide to have a lazy day you still have plenty of fun things to do, so you can simply spend hours humiliating yourself playing pool in front of everyone!
