The Experience

Do you enjoy meeting other travellers from all over the world? Sitting on top of a hill in the middle of the beautiful Umbrian countryside in a village built over 1000 years ago, our hostel was once a school and marketplace back in the day and has been brought back to life. You can expect to help out with general maintenance of the hostel and socialise with guests. We expect clean, polite volunteers with team spirit and a positive attitude.

My time at Otelo the hostel was like spending time at home. The staff is incredibly friendly and will welcome you into their family immediately. The work hours are very manageable if you'd like to explore. Assisi is beautiful and well connected to Rome and Florence if you'd like to visit on your days off. I got sick on one of my last days with food poisoning and the hospitality and care that they give to volunteers is outstanding. This hostel was like home and I would've stayed longer if I could've!

I had an amazing time volunteering at Ostello Bello Assisi Old Town! The work wasn’t hard, all the staff members were respectful and welcoming, and I was lucky enough to have amazing volunteers by my side.

I made great friendships, connected with Assisi (which is a lovely city), and got to practise my English and Italian.

This is definitely the place to go if you want to relax somewhere peaceful while still having the opportunity to visit other cities during your days off! I'd love to come back.

I was very lucky to be able to participate in both experiences, the hostel bevagna and assisi. I couldn't have asked for a better experience. All the staff are incredibly friendly and I never felt out of place. Assisi is a welcoming place and the experience allows you to both explore the beautiful town and travel to other cities on days off. Bevagna on the other hand, is perfect to focus on yourself, personal projects and to disconnect from the noise of the cities since transport is limited. I couldn't be happier with my decision and I would 100% recommend it. I'll be back. Baci !! ❤️🇲🇽

Volunteering in Bevagna was absolutely fantastic! The place is amazing: beautiful landscapes and a cozy small community. The work is chill and the staff is always willing to help or teach whenever it's needed. A special thanks for Edwin and Duilio for being so welcoming.

This was my first ever volunteer and it will always hold a special place in my hearth. I have reflected on the whole experience and I'm already so nostalgic about it all. The team was so welcoming and nice from the very start. I was in awe with the facilities, the place is so so beautiful and spacious. The town itself, the sunsets, the cats!!! I fell in love with it more and more every day I miss everything so much, I am so grateful for the friendships and memories I made. Don't think about it twice, just apply! Grazie Edwin for giving me an opportunity to experience this🫶
