In the short two weeks that I was in Milos I felt at home. The work might take a little bit to get the hang of but it is fair and simple. Get to know Milos, Vasilis, Mely and all the cats. Vasilis and Mely are so generous, kind, and funny. They helped us explore the island and get comfortable in a new place. Milos is one of the coolest places with lots of adventures and places to discover. I hope to come back one day. I would recommend this opportunity and message me with any questions! Gracias por todo Vasilis, Mely, Ambar, y Sombra!

Where to start.. I'm back in my city since two days and I already miss Milos. I was in this island for 12 days and it seemed like 3 days.. time has passed so fast because I had a wonderful time. On the other hand I feel to know the island and Vasileios and Melis since more time. The work is in a beautiful place and the sea is in front of you, it's for 4 hours per day and it's very clear since Vasileios and Meli will explain to you everything since the first day. Forever grateful for these days, I will miss you and this island a lot. I wish you all the best with your business hopetoseeyousoon!

This is my first volunteering experience abroad, and it's been amazing! I've met so many great people- other volunteers, travelers, and locals. This position truly feels like a second home, and I'm so grateful for this experience. I honestly didn't know what to expect from my first volunteer experience, but I don't know if another place could top this one. I hope to return here in the future, because it really has been great! Would definitely recommend to anyone who's looking for a fun and welcoming atmosphere.

Vasilis and Melissa of the guest house are the best worlpacker hosts! They are kind, welcoming and understanding of anything you may need during your stay. Milos is one of the most beautiful islands in Greece hands down and Vasilis sometimes takes his volunteers on beautiful boat trips just because. I met two volunteers who as they were leaving said this was their favorite part. Also, if you love cats this will be paradise for you. Vasilis loves them and feeds many strays near his home. I wish I didn't have to leave!

Applying to this position was one of the best experiences I could have had during my first volunteering period. The project is serious but on the same time gives you the opportunity to have fun, see the island and enjoy the sea. I was welcomed with open arms by vasilis and given all the help I needed to make my experience there amazing
