The Experience

Daily life on the farm is diverse and changes with the seasons. I need help mainly with the animals and on the land (olive picking, harvesting, planting, etc.). If you have carpentry skills, I'm also a carpenter and have a workshop, there is always some tasks to do. Hours are flexible and depend on our schedules. Every day is different, so you won’t get bored!

This was my first experience with Worldpackers and it was amazing! Giannis was very welcoming and always made sure I was enjoying my time in Sifnos and had everything I needed. I had my own apartment and got products from the farm and great home-cooked meals everyday! The work hours were flexible and respected. I mostly helped with small jobs in the carpentry workshop and feeding/cleaning in the farm. I had plenty of time to explore the island, which is beautiful. It was very quiet, but there's plenty of trails and beaches to enjoy and connect with nature. Hope to come back soon! :)

Sifnos is a great island to visit. It's a small community that keep traditions in tact. the farm provided a great place to stay! I had my own place with a kitchen and bathroom. Despite their English not being great, they where incredibly welcoming and made a great effort at communicating as well as inviting me to many delicious dinners and traditional parties. Katerina is a wonderful cook! I had a lot of free time and it's beautiful to walk on the island. Volunteering here is a great way to experience authentic Greek life. Σας ευχαριστώ πολύ για όλα, Γιάννη και Κατερίνα.
