Messina is a very large city, there is not much crime and you can walk around safely, although I advise you to always keep your eyes open. It is a quite peaceful place and I recommend visiting it.

Messina is quite a peaceful, managable and not pricey in Sicily. I can see that people in here are so friendly, joyful and very supportive. I have been here for 2 years but all of my experiences are all good!

Home to an incredible 55 UNESCO World Heritage Sites, the country is famed for monuments like the Colosseum, the Leaning Tower of Pisa, and the Vatican City - the smallest country in the world. Italy is the birthplace of the Renaissance, a period that produced artists and scholars such as Leonardo da Vinci and Michelangelo who left an unparalleled cultural legacy. Internationally renowned for its cuisine, Italy is the land of pizza, pasta, and world-class wine, inviting its visitors to indulge in its rich and diverse gastronomic culture. The breathtaking landscapes of the Amalfi Coast, the romantic waterways of Venice, and the rustic charm of Tuscany offer a compelling blend of sightseeing delights and leisurely pursuits.

Work&Travel in Messina. Animal care in the hills of Messina was amazing! Had a small room with a kitchen. The hosts made everyday lunch for me too. Never ate soooo good in my life before! Would do it every time again!
