I volunteered at the hostel for more than six months, and it became much more than a place to stay or work it felt like a home and a community. I helped with gardening, maintaining the space, events, guest activities and environmental initiatives. The team trusted me, welcomed my ideas and gave me room to learn and take responsibility. I met wonderful people from around the world and created memories I will always carry with me. A beautiful experience for anyone who values nature, community and cultural exchange. Paolo and the team made me feel supported, respected and truly welcome.🧡
