It was my first experience with Worldpackers and I honestly couldn't have asked for a better one. Mario and Sofia were so kind and welcoming from the very beginning, and I felt at home with them and the kids almost immediately. The house was very comfortable, the tasks were easy and relaxed, and they were always there whenever I had any questions. I had such a nice time with the whole family, and it was lovely to see how a Worldpackers experience turned into new friendships. I'm really happy I got to meet them and would definitely recommend staying with Mario and Sofia! ❤️

I couldn't recommend enough. Everything is perfect down to last minute little details. Location is very close to the multiple short hiking routes and surfing places. The hosts Mario and Sofia are very nice. They share their cultural meals and I get to share mine. There's also pool so you can cold-plunged if you want.

An Unforgettable and Heartwarming Experience Volunteering here was one of the most meaningful experiences of my life. I was warmly welcomed and became part of a lively, loving, and chaotic family. Every moment was filled with joy, connection, and valuable life lessons. The bond I built with everyone here is something I'll always cherish. The atmosphere is one of openness, trust, and pure love. From shared meals to spontaneous laughter, I felt appreciated and truly part of something special. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a genuine and transformative experience.
