I had my first volunteer experience in the guest house and I couldn't have picked a better place. They made me feel like home the instant I arrived. We got a lot of free time to experience sicily but also staying in the hostel and enjoying the slow life was one of my favorite parts of the experience. Loved it so much that it was hard to leave <3

The guest house is a place with a beautiful soul, where I felt at home from the very first day. I was welcomed with kindness, warmth, and genuine care, which made this experience truly special. The work is enjoyable and leaves enough time to discover the wonderful corners of Catania and the surrounding area. The accommodation is cozy, comfortable, and full of warmth. A heartfelt thank you to Granita, Lucia, Sofia, Natalia, and Santo. You made me feel part of a family, and I will carry these memories with me forever. This experience will always have a special place in my heart.

Wonderful experience the guest house is literally feels like a home not just a hostel, if you are looking for a place to meet locals and experience Sicily this is the place even as a guest The work was very easy and chilled There was no pressure I was able to do it at my own pace I never met Natalia, but she always communicated via WhatsApp to make sure I was enjoying my experience & checked up on the volunteers regularly Highly recommend this excellent Thanks ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿฝ

My time at the guest house was more fulfilling than I ever could have imagined. I leave here with friendships that will last a lifetime and memories that I will cherish forever. I am forever grateful to the guest house, Santo and Lucia (as well as our furry friends Eva and Granita) for creating and sustaining such a welcoming and wholesome environment. I got the chance to connect with my culture, work on my Italian and meet many local friends. I also formed a bond with the other volunteers that could only be describe as sisterhood. the guest house holds such a special place in my heart โค๏ธ

I am absolutely grateful for choosing the guest house as my first volunteer experience. This place felt like home from the moment I arrived there. I've learned a lot about Sicilian culture, traveled a lot on my days off and was surrounded by nice people during my entire stay. I am extremely happy I've been there at the same time with other volunteers who became my second family. The tasks where easy to do, working hours where clear and hosts were respectful. Absolutely recommend the guest house, a very unique and authentic place. Will come back for sure! Con amore da Julia ๐Ÿ’‹
