My experience My experience working with the home was so great! The boys and the little girl and so sweet, the hours are reasonable and the hostel is also a great ambiance. When I was sick, the home was generous and flexible with my hours, and I couldn't ask for better hosts! Thank you so much the home and Claudio!

I'd like to say I had an amazing experience with the home and her whole family, they were welcoming and set the expectation of I should do as a volunteer, I loved the local cultural experience and how I could also contribute to their goals, the hostel was great and welcoming in many ways as well as the host during volunteer hours, I totally recommend the experience and wish them the very best for many years to come, those kids made a definite impact in my life and I felt loved by all, arrivederci amici and God bless! :)

This time was a blessing for me. I'm grateful for this family and their love and respect. The boys are special boys. If you have worked with kids before I recommend reaching out. Thank you :)

I loved working for the home! This was my first WP experience and the home was more than accommodating. She did so many kind gestures for me and was so sweet and personable! There were a couple of times that I needed additional help with babysitting (the kids are so great but can be a bit tough sometimes) and she was more than helpful in navigating that and ensuring that I felt comfortable. I could not have asked for a better first experience and host and I wish the home and the kids my best ❣️

The home was a wonderful host! She sets realistic expectations with volunteering and is very responsive to concerns during the experience. I thoroughly enjoyed my time spent with the boys. They are very energetic, so there is never a boring day with them. The time commitment with the experience is excellent for anyone looking to travel across Italy! The hostel I stayed in was a memorable experience. The staff is very friendly and welcoming, so this is a great opportunity to make friends along the way! I will certainly miss the time I spent with the family and the hostel.
