Work and Travel in Italy

Help us grow. share what you know about getting work in italy for travellers., volunteer and paid work opportunities in italy for travellers.

People think of Italy as one of the most desirable vacation destinations in the world. Whether for food tourism, heritage tours, or beach-hopping, working and travelling in this culturally rich European country is a great starting point for a backpacker trying to make the transition from sightseer to a full-time employee. We’re going to give you some tips and tricks about working and travelling in Italy that you won’t find in any other guide. Get ready to say “ciao” to your next big adventure. 1. Wine Tourism on an Italian Vineyard If you have an interest in wine, there’s no better place to build your skills than on a classic Italian vineyard. From picking grapes during harvest time to leading wine tours for English-speaking visitors, you can learn about the whole complete process involved in running a successful wine-producing vineyard. 2. Refugee/Migrant support in southern Italy Italy is currently hosting 175,000 refugees, with many more arriving every day. Different organisations have sprung up to offer accommodation, food and clothing services to ensure that people’s most basic needs are fulfilled. They also provide legal assistance, physical and mental healthcare. You can utilise your skills in public health or social services to assist with the overburdened support system. 3. Live with and look after an Italian family The family unit is perhaps the most important value for the Italian people. Therefore, there are usually plenty of opportunities available to move in with a family, play with the children and help around the house a bit. Often these are non-paying but the work is simple and a great way to improve your Italian.

VOLUNTEER WORK VISA / PERMIT REQUIREMENTS FOR ITALY

EU, UK, Australian, North American, and most South American citizens do not need a visa to stay for up to 90 out of every 180 days in a Schengen-area country like Italy. To stay longer or to work and travel you will need to meet the Italian government’s entry requirements. Check which type of visa and/or work permit you may need with the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs before booking an appointment through the Italian consulates. Chinese, South African and Russian citizens will need to apply for a visa to enter the country for any length of time. These visas are relatively simple to complete with the right documentation, however. Just make sure you don’t overstay your visa to prevent getting yourself banned from entering the EU in the future.

SEASONAL BACKPACKER SKILLS NEEDED IN ITALY

Spring work.

Most Italian locals aren't fluent in English, and therefore it's unlikely you'll secure work without mastering the language. On the other hand, your English speaking ability will be highly valued, particularly in tourism and teaching. Because of this, jobs teaching English as a foreign language are readily available. Recruitment for teachers typically begins in early spring for positions available in September/October. The weather in Italy is generally already warm in springtime, so farms and trekking tourism sites will already be operating and recruiting workers.

SUMMER JOBS

Summer tourism is big business in Italy, so there are plenty of seasonal jobs on offer including bar, hotel and restaurant work. You could find employment in summer camps or holiday resorts, much of it in exchange for free accommodation. Backpackers just looking to gain some entry-level experience will find plenty of volunteer opportunities in summer, especially in either the agricultural sector or hostels.

Italy is known for its ancient villas and historic structures, much of which was spared destruction during WWII, but could now use some facelifts. If you have handyperson or construction skills, there are a multitude of opportunities for you to work and travel. Felling trees, carpentry, brickwork - this is all consistently in demand, especially in the autumn before vacation residences close up for the winter.

The southern Italian islands such as Sicily have a mild climate, so backpackers can find citrus harvest work in February for picking lemons and oranges. Ski resorts in the Italian alps also need lots of help, but apply early since these positions are lucrative and the less-skilled jobs fill up quickly.

ATTITUDE TO FOREIGNERS WORKING OR VOLUNTEERING IN ITALY

Italians consider family extremely important and value a healthy live-work balance, so if you can get past initially hesitancy and establish yourself with the natives you can look forward to a thoroughly enjoyable work and travel experience. Italians expect to be respected and are usually prideful of their particular regions, so w hen in a place, do not praise too other places of Italy too much and don't compare the place where you are with other ones. Generally, Italy is a very safe country for visitors and solo travellers as long as you keep your wits about you.

Immerse yourself in Italian life in your local piazza while doing an Italy Working Holiday

Italy is a nation with incredible history and tradition. There is also superb artistic treasures and more than 100,000 magnificent monuments and buildings. Add ancient ruins, precious art, timeless cities, beautiful countryside, Italian cuisine, wine and warm hospitality and it is little wonder the country attracts millions of tourists every year. Now it is your turn. But you want to spend a little longer than a few weeks there. How do you do that? How can you live in Italy? You go to live, work and play in Italy on an Italy working holiday visa. On one of these, you can stay in Italy for up to 12 months. Yes, that’s what you do. Work and live abroad in Italy and immerse yourself in the Italian way of life. Here’s how to get started.

This post is about how you can take up this great opportunity to experience life in Italy. Perhaps learn to cook your favourite Italian food and even learn some Italian while on your Italian working holiday. Whilst all my best efforts are made to keep this information updated, I do not guarantee its accuracy. Things change, and if you find an error, please let me know so I can update the information as quickly as possible. Future fellow travellers are counting on us!

Best Time to go to Italy on a Working Holiday

Anytime is a good time to head to Italy to live, work and play. If you are going on the one year Italy working holiday visa or work permit and plan to stay for the whole year, you will experience every season. Therefore, it doesn’t really matter when you get there. If you are thinking about work opportunities and things you want to experience, the seasons may be a factor. If you want to spend time working in the ski resorts then you should be in Italy during the winter months. Planning to spend your time on a beach on the Amalfi Coast, the summer months is when you should get there. This could also be a good time to get a job in a restaurant or cafe when there are plenty of tourists visiting Italy. But anytime is a good time to go to Italy on a working holiday – cause it aint going anywhere!

Visas Available to Work in Italy

It will depend on your nationality as to what visa you may be eligible for. Here are the most popular options.

European Union (EU) Nationals

European Union (EU) nationals can live, work and play in Italy without too many restrictions. With a passport from an EU member country you will be allowed to move freely in and out of Italy, plus live and work. But each EU country has their own visa rules and regulations so check these out first at the official European Union website .

Italy Working Holiday Visa

Italy currently has a working holiday visa arrangement with Australia, Canada, New Zealand and South Korea. To apply for an Italian Working Holiday Visa, you must meet the following requirements:

Be aged between 18-30 years old (inclusive) at the time of application. 18-35 years if from Canada.
Have at least €10,400 to support yourself in Italy for one year (if staying a shorter time, this is calculated on a pro-rata basis).
Have a round-trip plane ticket to Italy, or enough money to buy one.
Be single and not accompanied by dependent children.

It may take a few weeks for your working holiday visa for Italy to be processed. If you are granted a working holiday visa for Italy you can stay in Italy up to one year. You will be able to find employment for up to 6 months, but only be able to work for one employer for up to 3 months. For more details about the Italy working holiday visa and how to apply for the Italian Working Holiday Visa, contact your nearest Italian Embassy or Consulate in your country. Once your visa has been issued, you’ll have 3 months to travel to Italy. Your visa will be valid for 12 months from the date of entry into Italy.

TIP : Find out what documents are required to apply for the visa and have them altogether before you apply. And note, that the required documentation may vary depending on which Italian Embassy or Consulate you are applying at. At time of writing the visa processing fee is €116 which is payable at the time of your application, and is usually non-refundable.

Other Visas to Visit Italy

If you do not qualify for an Italian working holiday visa or an EU passport you may like to consider investigating other visas. These include and are not limited to the the Schengen Visa for a visit of up to 90 days, student visa, work permit visa and digital nomad visa introduced in March 2022. To discover more about visas to enter Italy and how to apply, visit your nearest Italian Consulate in your home country.

How to Get to Italy?

It will depend on where you are coming from as to how you get to Italy. Many fly into Rome’s international airport, Leonardo da Vinci International Airport or one of Italy’s smaller airports. If you are looking for a good airfare check out flight availability and costs at Skyscanner. As well as by air, Italy is easily reached by road, rail and sea. Italy is well connected by road from other European countries. It is also well serviced by trains with many people travelling Italy on a Eurail Pass . Don’t forget a lot of Italy’s coastline is in the Mediterranean so you can get to Italy by ferry from other nearby countries such as Greece.

Things to do on Arrival in Italy

Before you can begin to live, work and play in Italy on your working holiday, there are some things you will need to do first.

Get your Permesso di Soggiorno (Residence Permit)

The law in Italy requires all foreigners (including EU nationals from other EU countries) to obtain a Permesso di soggiorno (permission to remain for a designated period). You must do this within eight (8) days of arriving in Italy. The quickest and most efficient way of doing this is to go directly to the Questura (Police Station) in the province where you intend to reside. Take your passport, four passport photos, a work or study permit and an application form (that you can pick up at the Questura). You should be given a number and within a few weeks receive the permit.

Frequently Asked Questions

We know traveling to a new country for work can raise a lot of questions. Check out our useful FAQs or reach out with questions

You are going to hear several terms for different forms etc. during the process. Here is our IENAipedia to those forms:

The J-1 Summer Work and Travel Visa: This J-1 Visa is a government program that allows qualified full time students to share their cultures and ideas with the people of the United States. The J-1 Summer Work and Travel Visa is for individuals approved to participate in work-and study-based exchange visitor programs. This program is run by the US Department of State .

DS-2019 Form: This form can only be issued by a US Department of State designated visa sponsor. IENA is one of those. It certifies that you are eligible to take part in the cultural exchange program and is a vital part of the application process. In essence, it is evidence that you have a bona-fide job offer in the USA. You will need it for your embassy appointment AND you will need it when you enter into the USA. Guard it as you would guard your passport.

SEVIS Receipt (or SEVIS I-901 Receipt): SEVIS stands for “Student Exchange Visitor Information System”. It is a system by which the US Department of State keeps track of you on the program. You will need this form when you visit the embassy for your interview

WHAT PAPERWORK WILL THE EMPLOYER REQUIRE? Social Security: The US Government requires all employees to apply for a Social Security Number. Your employer will help you do this upon your arrival, however, you MUST validate your arrival via your IENA account BEFORE you can apply. Once done, you will need to visit the local Social Security office. You must obtain a Social Security Card. If you already have one, then that’s yours for life.

Form I-9: All employees, foreign and domestic, are required to complete this form for each employer. It is a straightforward form and you will need your passport (including J-1 Visa) and your DS-2019. Your employer will help you complete this.

Form I-94: This is your arrival and departure record. It is a good idea to print this when you get settled and keep it with you. You cannot print it until after you have arrived in the USA. It can be printed here

W-4: This form is for tax purposes. Your employer may withhold a small amount of taxes from your salary. You ARE entitled to claim some of this back because you are not a resident of the USA. IENA partner with taxback.com to make claiming back the taxes as simple as possible DO I HAVE HEALTHCARE IN AMERICA?

As you may be aware, health care is not free in the USA. You must have medical insurance. We have that covered for you. There are however some terminology and procedures it is handy to know:

Co-payment: This is like your car insurance excess. Its an amount you always have to pay when you have treatment. For non-Emergency Room Visits, the Co-pay is $50. Whenever possible. You should always call the 800 number (free call) on the back of your insurance and discuss your symptoms before visiting a doctor. They can best advise you whether to visit a doctor and if so, where the closest clinic is.

Workers Compensation: Whilst you are at work and carrying out your duties at work, you are covered by this insurance. This means if you have an injury/illness caused by or related to your work, you are covered by this insurance which is held by your employer. Our insurance is for non-work related cases, or injuries/illnesses that occur while on days off and while you are traveling.

Emergency Room: It’s the same thing as the A & E and is for serious injury or illness that requires immediate attention. There is no co-pay or deductible for this if the injury/illness is deemed life threatening or requires an overnight stay. In all other cases, there will be a $350 Copay, so you should go to a walk-in clinic whenever possible.

Pre-Existing Conditions: If you have a condition that has been treated, or you take regular medication for, in the past 6 months, it will NOT be covered by this insurance.

Here you can find more details on your insurance policy .

SOCIAL MEDIA AND YOUR ONLINE PRESENCE

When it comes to social media and American culture, there are a few things you need to be aware of. Employers have withdrawn job offers to participants before they have even arrived in the USA due to things they have found on social media. Please be aware of how you portray yourself. You are going to America to be professionally employed and your public presence should reflect that. We highly recommend you make all your social media private.

Remember, even something someone else tags you in or photos someone else posts of you can have an impact on someone’s impression of you. As a general rule of thumb, think “Would I want my parents or grandparents to see this?”

Each employer will have their own set of rules with regards to social media once you arrive.

CAN I LEAVE MY EMPLOYER OR SWITCH JOBS

IENA recognizes there are several reasons why you may leave your job.

Getting Fired

Break the rules and you may be fired. This is a job just like a job at home. As with any job you take, there are rules that need to be followed.

If you have been fired, the first thing you must do is call IENA. (888)724-4292 . Your employer are also instructed to call us. Our goal is:

For you to understand why you have been fired
Get your version of events
Ensure you are paid up to date
To make a plan with you as to where you will go, if we can place you elsewhere or how you will get home

Just because you have been terminated from employment does not mean you are not part of our program. We want to make sure you are safe and taken care of.

You Decide to Leave

We understand there are a few reasons why you may decide to leave. All we ask is that if you have any problems at your place of employment, you follow the following steps:

Please make sure you have given the job a chance – at least 2 weeks
Speak with your supervisor about any problems first and give him or her the chance to resolve
If this has not worked, call IENA who will advocate on your behalf

Remember as with any job, there are good days at work and bad days. There are people you like working with, and people you don’t like working with. Just as the employer has made a commitment to you via you job offer, you have made a commitment to the employer in acknowledging and agreeing to the terms of your job offer.

If you do decide to leave early, you MUST call IENA before you leave on (888) 724 4292 ext 4. We will want to help you make a plan to get home or find other employment.

CAN I GET A SECOND JOB

If you have the opportunity for a second job, please contact the IENA office and we will go through the process and contact your new employer. You MUST do this BEFORE you accept and begin working for your 2 nd job employer.

«Salve professoressa come sta? Spero che lei stia bene ed in grande forma, tanto quanto l'America ha fatto stare bene me! Devo dire che sembra tutto un sogno.

Il lavoro che ho trovato è fantastico , inoltre la mia compagnia dove lavoro offre l'esperienza di Work&travel a tutto il mondo ed ho avuto modo di conoscere grazie a loro amici provenienti dalla: Giordania, Turchia, Macedonia, America latina e tante tante altre nazionalità.

Sono stato durante questi tre mesi a Miami, a New york, a Washington e in Porto Rico. Le allego qualche foto a Washington e altre con tutti i ragazzi che ho conosciuto. Le mando un gran saluto e vi ringrazio per tutto ciò, spero di rimanere in contatto con lei, perché lei ha cambiato la mia vita.

Diana Cannarozzi

Da Bologna a New York

«Sono davvero entusiasta di questa questa esperienza in Summer di Work and Travel in America, vicino a New York. Senza dubbio viaggiare e soprattutto imparare una lingua ti apre la mente e gli orizzonti. Ringrazio STI Travels e lo sponsor che ogni anno fanno partire ragazzi da quasi ogni parte del mondo e li fanno tornare a casa "ADULTI". Ho apprezzato il contesto informale del lavoro (niente divisa o cartellino); gli americani guardano il risultato :) Il mio datore di lavoro si è fidato di me sin dal primo giorno e ho vissuto questi 3 mesi come una vera e propria vacanza più che come un lavoro».

Deborah Chila

Work and Travel USA

International Cultural Exchange Program

Summer Work and Travel USA Program

The Summer Work Travel program provides foreign students with an opportunity to live and work in the United States during their summer vacation from college or university to experience and to be exposed to the people and way of life in the United States.

Participants in the program must be post-secondary school students in an educational institution outside the United States who have completed at least one semester or equivalent of post-secondary academic study. Additionally they must possess sufficient proficiency in English and must be pre-placed in a job prior to entry unless from a visa waiver country. Applicants must be pre-placed in a job prior to entry. U.S. based exchange visitor sponsors will issue form DS-2019 once they accept applicants into their program.

Participants are allowed to work up to four months during their summer break and are generally allowed a grace period (usually 30 days) to travel in the United States after the end of the exchange program. The Summer Work Travel is not for visitors who only want to travel in the United States; to enter the United States as a tourist only the correct visa category is B-2.

See j1visa.state.gov or FAQ for further information.

HISTORY OF Summer Work&Travel

The Summer Work Travel program was created by the Mutual Educational and Cultural Exchange Act of 1961, Senator J. William Fulbright’s legislation to increase mutual understanding between Americans and the people of other countries.

This legislation created such important academic exchanges as the Fulbright Program, among many others.

In that legislation, Senator Fulbright also saw the need for work-based exchange programs like Summer Work Travel.

Over 50+ years, Summer Work Travel has become the U.S.’ largest student exchange program. It is privately funded and costs nothing to the U.S. taxpayer. In addition to its diplomatic and foreign policy benefits, the program has evolved to provide important economic benefits to U.S. host businesses and seasonal communities.

From the restaurants in Rome to the majestic Mediterranean Islands - it's no wonder Italy is visited by nearly 75 million people every year. But here's the secret: beyond the tourist hotspots lies a very different Italy waiting to be discovered.

From the olive groves of Tuscan farms to the crystal clear coastline of Sardinia, if you’re ready to unveil a more meaningful connection with this Mediterranean gem - listen up!

Why just be a tourist when you can become a part of Italy's story? Volunteering in Italy isn't just an opportunity to taste La Dolce Vita – it's a chance to make a difference in a way you'll never forget.

Reasons to Volunteer in Italy

You will never be hungry Volunteering is one of the best ways to help travel through your tastebuds and there’s no arguing Italy offers some of the best food in the entire world. Tuscany is a foodie haven in particular, famed for its hearty meats, world renowned olive oil and delicious bread and cheese.

Northern Italy is known for its rich dishes such as creamy risottos and hearty stews whereas central Italy is home to classics like pasta and rustic soups. Southern Italy is more influenced by Mediterranean flavours as well as the beloved pizza, pasta and fresh seafood. You’re guaranteed to leave with a full heart and a full stomach.

Head Off The Beaten Track There are parts of Italy seriously struggling with mass tourism. For example the chain of charming little villages known as Cinque Terre is home to fewer than 4,000 locals. Yet in 2022 as many as 3 million people visited here. Venice is also struggling with a dwindling local population as over tourism threatens its World Heritage Status.

Whether you’re travelling Europe on a budget , or simply want to escape the crowds, volunteering in Italy is one of the best ways to head off the beaten track and avoid contributing to this problem. Instead enjoy an authentic, slower paced side of the country. You’ll be rewarded with a deeper connection to the local culture and a unique adventure unlike anyone else's.

Language Learning If you plan on travelling the world as a language teacher , Workaway is one of the best ways to do it. Volunteering in Italy guarantees total immersion which will have you learning Italian in record breaking time, while sharing your language skills with the communities that need it most.

Island life While Italy’s boot-shaped mainland has no shortage of incredible destinations, there are over 400 islands within the country’s borders ready to be explored! The islands are famous for their black sand beaches and dramatic landscapes carved by volcanic activity.

While Capri and Panarea are renowned as holiday destinations for the rich and famous, there are others that offer more rustic charm well worth visiting from Sicily and Sardinia which are the largest in the entire Mediterranean, to the tiny pastel-painted paradise of Procida that’s only two square miles.

Regional Highlights of Italy

Whether you want to ski in The Dolomites, or sip your way around Tuscany’s vineyards, you could say Italy offers all kinds of adventure. The country is divided into 20 administrative regions, including 5 autonomous regions which are Sicily, Sardinia, Aosta Valley, Friuli-Venezia Giulia and Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol.

Autonomous regions simply mean they have slightly more control over local laws and how funds are spent in comparison to the other regions. This is to preserve these region’s unique cultural and linguistic differences.

You can filter your host results by each region to help plan your volunteering adventure in Italy:

Nestled between the Apennine Mountains and the Adriatic Sea, Abruzzo offers something for all kinds of travellers. Hikers, wildlife enthusiasts, and those looking to escape the crowds will appreciate Gran Sasso National Park, where hiking, skiing, and wildlife watching are popular. Additionally, wine lovers can appreciate local Montepulciano wines, and history buffs can explore the region's charming mediaeval towns, such as L'Aquila. Best of all we have over 50 hosts in the region waiting for you!

Aosta Valley

From mediaeval castles to Mont Blanc and Matterhorn, there is SO much to love about Aosta Valley. The region is a haven for winter sport enthusiasts as well as foodies (you cannot leave without trying the famous fondue!) The majority of hosts here are in search of volunteers passionate about English practice so if you’re a language teacher with an adventurous spirit, this is the region for you.

For those in search of more tranquillity than adrenaline, the "heel" of Italy, Apulia offers the perfect mix of coastline, culture and culinary delights. Enjoy the unique architecture in Alberobello, the Baroque beauty of Lecce, and some of Italy's most delicious pasta dishes. With 162 hosts in this region alone, it could not be easier to live like a local in Apulia.

Basilicata offers a quieter, more authentic Italian experience, perfect for volunteers who crave a crowd free trip to immerse themselves in local culture. History fans can unearth the beauty of Matera, a UNESCO World Heritage city with ancient cave dwellings while nature enthusiasts may prefer the tranquillity of the Pollino National Park. As the largest national park in Italy, it’s also one of the largest in Europe.

If you’re big on sand and sea, Calabria will be your sort of vibe. Better yet, it is the country’s least visited region with many locals nicknaming it “the wild Italy '' due to its untouched landscapes and lack of tourists. You can expect some of Italy's most beautiful beaches along the 800km of coastline.This also means you’ll find it's the perfect destination for volunteers interested in marine conservation or even surfing . Calabria is home to some of the best surf spots in Italy especially in Capo Rizzuto or Tropea!

Campania is steeped in history and home to iconic sites such as Pompeii, Herculaneum and Naples. Dream of sailing or boating with Workaway? This region is where you can find the Amalfi Coast, a paradise with snorkelers and home to the island of Capri. Then indulge in the region’s famous Neapolitan pizza, fresh seafood, and limoncello before adventuring to the cliffside villages like Positano and Ravello.

Emilia–Romagna

While any region in Italy will do wonders for your waistline, the Emilia–Romagna region in particular is a foodie paradise. If you crave authentic Italian cuisine, this region is known for Parmigiano-Reggiano, Balsamic vinegar, and delicious pasta. As a tip, homestays in this region are the best way to not only eat authentic Italian food, but learn how to cook it too! To work off those carbs, explore the beautiful art in Bologna and the seaside charm of Rimini. This region offers experiences for all backgrounds - fortunately we have over 200 hosts here to show you around!

Friuli–Venezia Giulia

Wine fans and outdoor enthusiasts - this is your region! Sample world-class white wines in Friuli. Sail and windsurf on the Adriatic, explore Grotta Gigante (the world's largest tourist cave) as well as the beauty of the Julian Alps. If you’re travelling as a couple , this is a particularly romantic region - popular for its picturesque towns and charming vibes.

Lazio is home to Rome, the capital of Italy and a wealth of iconic landmarks including the Colosseum, the Vatican City, and the Roman Forum. Or switch the city for a slower pace of life in the charming towns and villages like Tivoli, go hiking in the Apennine Mountains, or explore the Alban Hills and Castelli Romani. Best of all, who needs a tour guide when you have over 260 hosts in the Lazio region alone!

Thanks to Liguria's stunning Mediterranean coastline, it is one of the more touristy regions. It’s where you’ll find the colourful villages of Cinque Terre hugging the coastline as well as some of the best fresh seafood, pesto sauce and authentic Italian dishes. Whether you want an adventurous escape filled with sailing, diving and windsurfing or a relaxing retreat enjoying the quaint fishing villages, Liguria is home to 162 Workaway hosts ready to show you around.

Fashionistas flock to Milan, for its high-end shopping, iconic street style and world famous fashion weeks. However there is so much more to this region! It features stunning lakes, including Lake Como and Lake Maggiore which means picturesque landscapes and outdoor activities like boating and hiking won’t be hard to find. It’s also one of the most popular regions in Italy, but you can skip the crowds (and tourist prices!) by living like a local instead. With over 330 hosts in the region alone, it could not be easier to head off the beaten track and discover what the guidebooks don’t tell you.

From exploring the Frasassi Caves to paragliding in the Sibillini Mountains, you’ll find adventure easily in Marche. Alternatively unwind with the regional wines like Verdicchio or indulge in the delicious local dishes such as porchetta (roast pork) and Vincisgrassi (a type of lasagna.) The region also boasts over 100 hosts offering all kinds of volunteer experiences from hostels to homeschooling.

Molise is the perfect region for those who want to head off the beaten track as it’s one of the least visited regions in Italy. For example, more than 3.6 million tourists visited Tuscany last year, but only 20,000 went to Molise in comparison. Enjoy the tranquil atmosphere and unhurried pace of life in the historic towns of Isernia, Campobasso and Termoli.

Picturesque Piedmont is textbook “Italian” - rolling hills are dotted with vineyards, pristine lakes are surrounded by snow-capped mountains and the capital city of Turin looks straight out of a fairytale. It is also a haven for foodie fans as you’ll find white truffle (and its annual festival) as well as walnuts, chestnuts, hazelnuts and homemade cheeses in abundance. We have over 300 hosts in Piedmont many of who are seeking support in organic farming, permaculture and off grid living.

From demanding hikes to incredible surf spots, it’s no wonder Sardinia is a super popular region of Italy. The majority of visitors flock to the island’s mesmerising beaches, particularly along Costa Smeralda (which happens to also be the most expensive area on the island). But there is so much more to enjoy! Art fans will love the mural town of Orgosolo covered in colourful street art, hikers should head for Gola di Gorropu (often nicknamed Italy’s Grand Canyon) and beach lovers will adore Cala Brandinchi a beach lined with cool pine forest on one side, turquoise waters on the other. Best of all, with over 120 hosts on the island, it couldn’t be easier to experience real Sardinia from a local’s perspective.

As the largest island in the Mediterranean, it's no surprise there is so much to see and do in Sicily. Originally dominated by the Greeks, the island was passed on to the Romans and then the European powers during the Middle Ages and Renaissance. This means nowadays, Sicily is a treasure trove of history, with ancient Greek temples in Agrigento, Roman mosaics in Villa Romana del Casale, and the historic cities of Palermo and Syracuse.

The island is known for landmarks like The Valley of Temples and Mount Etna as well as its heavenly sandy beaches, delicious wine and incredible cuisine like arancini, cannoli, and seafood specialties. You could spend months here and never be bored so it's a good job we have over 400 hosts dotted all over the island!

Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol

This mountainous northern region offers thrilling winter sports as well as tranquil hiking trails. It’s also home to the Dolomites - an epic mountain range with 18 peaks that rise above 3,000metres high! You’ll notice a blend of Italian and Austrian influences, evident in the architecture, culture, and cuisine. This also makes it a great region for volunteer language teachers as many locals are also native German speakers. This means there is a demand for German, Italian and English teachers.

Some would say it’s the picturesque vineyards and enchanting cities like Florence, Siena, and Pisa, that make Tuscany Italy’s second most popular region. Others would argue it’s the food that entices the crowds. The region is renowned for its simple yet flavorful cuisine, featuring dishes like ribollita (a hearty vegetable and bread soup), pappa al pomodoro (tomato and bread soup), and bistecca alla fiorentina (a thick T-bone steak).

But there are still some hidden gems to be discovered like the paradise beaches of Elba (the largest island of the Tuscan archipelago), the hot springs of Bagni San Filippo and the World Heritage Site of Val D’Orcia. Did we mention we have over 500 hosts in Tuscany ? From house sitting to community projects you’ll have no problem finding your perfect project!

Often nicknamed the "Green Heart of Italy" , Umbria is known for its emerald hills and vineyards as far as the eye can see. If you crave a peaceful escape, this is the region for you. As you may guess agriculture is a massive industry here, with the region renowned for tobacco, vineyards and olive oil. This makes it the perfect place for foodies and farm volunteers alike.

From wine tasting to wakeboarding, you’ll then have no shortage of ways to spend your free time. If you choose to stay with one of our 120+ hosts in Umbria , don’t forget to visit Assisi, with its Basilica of St. Francis, a significant pilgrimage site and Italy’s fourth largest lake, Trasimeno as well as the peaceful villages of Spello and Trevi.

Saving the busiest region until last, Veneto stretches from the beautiful beaches of the Adriatic Sea to the snow-capped summits of the Dolomites. It is home to Venice, the "City of Canals" which is the region’s capital and one of the most visited destinations in the entire country. You can’t visit Veneto without a trip to Italy’s largest lake - Lake Garda - with charming towns such as Lazise, Torri del Benaco, and Malcesine dotted around its shores. If you’re feeling romantic, head to Verona - where the story of Romeo and Juliet takes place. As a bonus, it’s also the birthplace of prosecco and tiramisu - do you need any more reasons to visit!?

Volunteering in Italy

Now you’re clued up on Italy’s regions, let’s plan your volunteering adventure. Why have yet another beach holiday when you can be part of an unforgettable cultural exchange? Switch sitting on an overpriced gondola in Venice for a tractor in Tuscany. Instead of the crazy crowds of Cinque Terre, surround yourself with the stunning countryside of Umbria. By joining Workaway , you’ll discover the real Italy is so much more than Rome and Ravioli!

As the world’s leading community for volunteering and cultural exchange, Workaway is the perfect platform to connect with locals in Italy. Whether you are a solo backpacker trying to find a travel buddy , recently retired or setting off on a grown up gap year – we can help you find your perfect host. Best of all, you can join as a solo traveller, as a couple, or even as a family! In exchange for a few hours of work each day, your host will usually provide free accommodation and meals. Mamma Mia indeed!

How to Find the Perfect Host in Italy

As well as searching by region, use your skills and interests as keywords in the search box to find your dream host in Italy. Whether you’re enticed by the beaches of Sardinia, dream of sailing the Amalfi Coast or hiking your way through the Dolomites – your perfect host is literally a few clicks away.

Best of all, when you join Workaway you are not limited to one project or region. For a small membership fee you have access to over 50,000 volunteer opportunities across 170 countries. After Italy, why not head over the border? To the north, the Alps separate Italy from France , Switzerland , Austria , and Slovenia - best of all we have hosts in each of these countries too!

Making a Difference in Italy

Although we’ve mentioned a few opportunities in the regions above, here is a brief overview of the type of volunteering projects that are particularly popular in Italy:

What’s more rewarding than indulging in Italy’s incredible cuisine? Learning how to grow it! From olives in Puglia to the famous oranges and lemons of Sicily, San Marzano tomatoes to Veneto’s vineyards - there are so many ways you can learn about the farming processes behind your favourite foods in Italy.

DIY/Restoration

Handy with a hammer? Perfect! From maintaining traditional trulli in Puglia to restoring a 16th century farmhouse in Tuscany - there are so many restoration and DIY projects that need your help. Renovation and repair skills are some of the best skills you can learn before your next Workaway as there is always a demand for volunteers within these areas. From fence painting to furniture upcycling, plumbing to plastering - there are so many ways you can lend a hand and help protect Italy’s heritage one beautiful building at a time.

Social Impact

Social impact volunteer work is all about creating positive change in communities and empowering those in need. From working with children and youth NGOs to education and women's empowerment projects, there are endless opportunities to give back to the world (although, it is vital we all learn how to give back the right way! ) These projects are not only rewarding but also allow you to immerse yourself in the local culture, and make meaningful connections with locals .

Language Teacher

As mentioned, there are 5 autonomous regions in Italy with the goal of preserving each region’s unique cultural and linguistic differences. While volunteering anywhere in Italy will help you learn the language fast , these regions are particularly special if you want to further your language learning or teaching experience. Each region speaks Italian but a large percentage of its population also speak another language. For example:

Friuli-Venezia Giulia – While the official language is Italian, Friulian is spoken almost everywhere. You may also hear the Venetian language, the Triestine dialect, and some Slovenian dialects spoken in parts of this region.
Sardinia – The official language is Italian, with Sardu spoken by almost everyone. However, you may also pick up other dialects such as Algherese, Gallurese, and Sassarese.
Sicily – Expect Sicilian to be spoken by almost everyone.
Trentino-Alto Adige/Südtirol – The official languages are both Italian and German. However a small percentage of the population can also speak one (or more) of three dialects: Ladin, Mòcheno and Cimbrian.
Val d’Aosta – The official languages are Italian and French (known as Aostan French), with nearly 60% of the population also speaking a regional dialect: Valdotain.

You may have guessed by now but Italy is a dream destination for foodies . Whether you’re an aspiring chef, dream of a career in nutrition or simply want to learn more about farm to table, it’s an excellent location to volunteer as your skills and knowledge of authentic Italian cuisine could help boost your CV .

Not Forgetting…

From bee keeping to boating, marketing to music - there are SO many types of volunteering and ways to get involved with Workaway. While we pride ourselves on being a cultural exchange, Workaway is also a great way to boost your CV , learn a new language and make friends all over the world . With over three thousand hosts in Italy alone, there are so many ways you can share your time and make a difference while enjoying this epic destination.

Hopefully you now agree that Italy is as irresistible as gelato on a hot Summer day. From the rolling hills of Tuscany to the bustling streets of Rome, there’s a place and project to suit all kinds of people.

Combine the Mediterranean sun, the incredible cuisine and warm Italian hospitality with a sprinkling of parmesan and you have the perfect recipe for a truly special volunteering experience. We promise it will be *chef’s kiss*

SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, CALIFORNIA

South Lake Tahoe is a resort town of this city and relies on the Nevada Mountain Range. Lake Tahoe 2/3 belongs to California while 1/3 of the territory belongs to Nevada. Also, this lake is the second deepest in North America, with the largest measured depth of 501 m and fills its trough with 147 trillion liters of water making it the sixth in the world by the volume of water it owns. It is located at 495 km2. And the fact that leaves breathless is that this lake is the cleanest in the world, in 99.994%, it's really incredible. Nightlife is quite calm when we exclude the fact that there are casinos-and they work 24h. About 3 million people visit Lake Tahoe every year.

The U.S. Summer Work Travel (Work and Travel USA) J-1 visa program is one of the major Exchange Visitor Programs carried out pursuant to the U.S. Mutual Educational and Cultural Exchange Act of 1961. Its purpose is to enhance understanding between the people of the United States and the people of other countries through educational and cultural exchanges. Participants during several months on program have opportunities to get to know about American culture, traditions, open society principles, see and get to know America “from inside”. Participant‘s status allows to be employed legally in USA for up to 4 months during summer vacation season, in order to defray (mostly or at least partially) expenses which participants incur (program, flights, accommodation, food, transportation, cultural events, travel, etc.). "Work and Travel USA" (WT) program is worth to participate for students, at least once per life. It is the most popular cultural exchange and work experience program for students from many countries of the world. The U.S. J-1 visa Exchange Visitor programs are strictly regulated by the U.S. Department of State (DoS). DoS designates the appropriate U.S. organizations (which meet the obligatory criteria and comply with DoS regulations) to be program sponsors - granting the right to conduct pogram and be responsible for participants (whom sponsor accepts) for the duration of program. Most sponsors are the private sector non-profit non-governmental organizations. In order sponsor can run the program with appropriate offices, staff and communications, the program fees are applied for participants. Program fee must include the apropriate insurance meeting or exceeding the standards set by DoS. There is also an additional obligatory U.S. Government fee for Student and Exchange Visitor System ( SEVIS ). It is good that for WT applicants the SEVIS fee is significantly discounted - just 35 U.S. dollars (USD) recent years.

Program sponsor provides insurance (included into program fee) for up to 3 - 4 months to WT participants. Sponsor provides a telephone line (usually toll-free) to contact sponsor (during business hours) on actual questions during program. Sponsor also provides a toll-free emergency telephone line (24 hours, 7 days a week) to contact sponsor in emergency case.

Our Center cooperates with several WT program sponsors. Some sponsors however accept applications only from Lithuanian citizens, so for international students the options available are (partialy) less.

Eligibility Criteria for Work and Travel USA (WT) progra m applicants : a) Full-Time students (bachelor or master) at university or college in Lithuania ; b) 18 – 28 years age (student/s of 29 - 30 years age may apply, if program sponsor allows); c) English - at least Upper Intermediate level. Notes in regard to students citizens of non European Union ( non-EU ) countries: for many previous years, J-1 visa issue rates at U.S. Embassy in Lithuania were very good not only for Lithuanian, EU citizens but also for students non-EU citizens who studied in Lithuania on the 2nd, 3rd year of bachelor studies, on the 1st year of master studies; for 1st year bachelor students and for graduating year students it is recommended to provide (during interview at U.S. Embassy) as many as possible additional proofs about their intention to depart from U.S. on time after WT program end; during interview at U.S. Embassy student should provide a proof of Tuition Fee payment upfront for the next Autumn / Fall semester to university / college in Lithuania; if student's Temporary Resident Permit (TRP) in Lithuania expires in August - September of current year, during interview at U.S. Embassy student should also provide the proof/s of application (started) for the TRP extension for the next academic year; Note: I f student’s immediate family member/s (Mother, Father, sister, brother) lives / resides in USA currently, student should bring (to interview at U.S. Embassy) also dcument/s about that family member's legal status in U.S.

Application set is completed when applicant submits all documents due (WT-Self - including the employment / job offer form completed by the U.S. employer and suitable for WT program) and pays to Center the full program fee applied and SEVIS fee. Program fee includes insurance (provided by program sponsor): some sponsors - up to 4 months ( fee supplement for additional insurance coverage period up to 1 month extra - from 50 USD ); some sponsors - up to 3 months ( fee supplement due for additional insurance coverage period, e.g.: 30 USD - for up to 2 weeks, 60 USD - for up to 1 month); some sponsors - even up to 5 months (the very maximal duration of stay in U.S. alloed for WT participants). SEVIS fee and Visa fee are subject to be updated by the U.S. authorities; if updated - to be applied accordingly. The annual numbers of WT participants are strictly limited by the U.S. DoS and sponsors, WT is very popular in many countries, so it is worth to apply as early as posible , in order to secure a place on the program. "WT-Self" major allocations are being filled over January or even earlier.

It is reasonable to apply earlier - advantages: better opportunities to secure a place on the program (the numbers are strictly limited); to have more time for communication to U.S. employers (for WT-Self option); to get U.S. visa earlier, to buy flight tickets to USA earlier – most likely less expensive.

During the most popular summer tourism period in USA (May - September, especially July – August and up to U.S. Labor Day – first Monday in September) plenty of seasonal jobs (especially in seasonal resorts) are available in hotels, casino resorts, shops, cafes, ice-cream, confectionary sales, souvenir shops, amusement parks, etc. U.S. employers (at least those who know WT program from previous year/s) are common to hire foreign students for seasonal work and can decide promptly (based on communication with student just by email, Skype, Facebook).

Salary in USA for WT participants must be on an hourly rate and not less than the U.S. Federal or State minimum hourly rate. For overtime (for work hours more than 40 hours per week) some companies are paying at a 1.5 times larger rate (though some companies are paying the same rate for overtime hours also – it depends on U.S. / state law). In tipped positions (e.g., waiter / waitress), hourly pay rate is less (it may be just some 2.5 – 5 USD/hour), but the tips usually exceed the difference over minimal wage rate.

Participants are responsible for their food, accommodation and daily transportation expenses in U.S. Some employers / host companies arrange accommodation (some – deducting accordingly from paychecks), some employers assist on accommodation (contacts, reference), some participants find accommodation on their own. For some U.S. locations (popular and / or expensive vacation destinations, etc.) sponsor/s require that host companies must arrange accommodation for WT participants (otherwise offer will NOT be approved by sponsor – applicant must promptly get employment offer from another host company and / or from other U.S. location).

Students who work in cafes, fast food restaurants may get some discounts for meals, at some companies students get one meal per work-shift for free. Salary in most U.S. companies is paid every two weeks.

WT participant must bring to USA not less than the minimum of money to support him/her until first paycheck received from employer. Sponsor usually request that participants must have at least 800 USD upon arrival to USA at participant‘s disposition.

WT program participant’s status allows student a possibility to work even for 2 host companies at the same period. You can find a second job when you are in USA, while already working for your major employer (pre-approved by program sponsor, usually before getting visa). If you see the note “Hiring” or “Help Wanted” on the company premises, you are welcome to come-in and express your interest for employment. If you want to work in a second job, you must get approval from program sponsor. If in your major job you get many overtime hours, there may be no need to look for a second job.

If WT participant has some trouble with his/her employer in U.S., s/he must inform program sponsor. If WT participant wants to change his/her major (approved by sponsor, usually before getting J-1 visa / coming to USA) employer, s/he must in advance discuss this opportunity with program sponsor and await for sponsor‘s decision (approval or not).

After finishing employment period, most WT participants travel in the USA some days or week/s: airplane, bus/coach, train, car, buying a weekly coach ticket / pass which allows to choose the route and time of travel (possibility to get out in some stop and continue your travel the next day/s). Some students visit also neighboring countries (Canada, Mexico, Carribean cruise) but for travel abroad it is obligatory to plan in advance: getting program sponsor’s additional signature on DS-2019 form original (students need to courier-mail their DS-2019 to sponsor a few weeks in advance, in order to get back their signed DS-2019 before departure from U.S.); entry visa to that country/ies; to return back to U.S. from abroad within J-1 visa validity dates.

U.S. Embassy in Vilnius, Lithuania has a very positive attitude to "Work and Travel USA" program. Nearly 100 % of WT program applicants Lithuanian citizens were successfuly getting J-1 visa for WT program at U.S. Embassy in Vilnius. For non-European Union citizens, WT program J-1 visa issue rate at U.S. Embassy in Vilnius recent years was a bit lower but quite good. If eligible and interested, you are welcome to apply - register with our Center ( http://lwc-wt.lt/contact/ ): Vilnius office - students studying in Vilnius ( please email first to [email protected] , to set the appointment time to come to office for registration) ; Kaunas office - students studying in Kaunas ( please email first to [email protected] , to set the appointment time to come to office for registration) ; Kaunas office - students studying in Klaipeda, other cities in Lithuania ( please email first to [email protected] , to start and get directives for registration online ).

For Baltimore-area residents, bridge collapse means longer commutes, uncertain prospects

Laurel Wamsley

Francis Scott Key Bridge collapsed after being hit by the Dali container vessel, as seen from Riviera Beach, Md., on Tuesday. Carol Guzy for NPR hide caption

Francis Scott Key Bridge collapsed after being hit by the Dali container vessel, as seen from Riviera Beach, Md., on Tuesday.

For Marylanders like Becky Grimes, who works at an Amazon warehouse near the eastern end of the Francis Scott Key Bridge, the bridge's sudden collapse immediately changed the shape of her day — and many days ahead.

She normally takes the Key Bridge to and from work, but it now takes an extra half hour each way to drive through the city of Baltimore instead of around it.

What we know and don't know about Baltimore's Key Bridge collapse

"I'm not looking forward to it," she says. "There's a lot of people that already want to transfer out."

The collapse of the bridge and the closure of the Port of Baltimore is upending life for countless people in the Chesapeake region.

For many residents, it's the bridge closure that will shake up their daily lives, lengthening commutes and clogging the city's tunnels.

But for the regional economy, the far bigger blow is that the fallen bridge and the container ship Dali are blocking the Port of Baltimore .

A sign warns drivers heading to Baltimore that the Francis Scott Key bridge is closed and to use alternate routes. Laurel Wamsley/NPR hide caption

A sign warns drivers heading to Baltimore that the Francis Scott Key bridge is closed and to use alternate routes.

"Because of the port being suspended, we don't have any traffic yesterday, today, at least for the next week or a week and a half," says Brent Howard, president of the Baltimore County Chamber of Commerce. "That's money that we're losing every day because those ships are being redirected to other ports. Norfolk, Newark, Philadelphia are getting that revenue on a daily basis that was already slotted for Baltimore."

And the Key Bridge is a toll bridge that last year generated 7% of the total revenue for the state's transportation authority, according to an analysis by Moody's.

Mercedes, GM, Stellantis scramble; Port jobs are at risk after Baltimore disaster

Howard says getting the port and bridge running again is pivotal to the region , both economically and emotionally.

"We're the Chesapeake," he says. "Baltimore is really connected to the port and connected to water and connected to ships and vessels. That's something that's always been intrinsic to Baltimore's history, going back to our inception."

A bustling port, now in limbo

Brenda Cotsairis has seen the area weather its ups and downs. On Tuesday, she joined others at a lookout in Dundalk, Md., where the collapsed bridge was visible. Laurel Wamsley/NPR hide caption

Brenda Cotsairis has seen the area weather its ups and downs. On Tuesday, she joined others at a lookout in Dundalk, Md., where the collapsed bridge was visible.

As a little girl in the 1970s , Brenda Cotsairis's father brought her to a sandy beach to see the Key Bridge under construction.

She works at a local grocery store and has seen the area weather its ups and downs.

"For a lot of years, good jobs were gone and then things started to come back," she says. "And now we have Tradepoint Atlantic and we have the port bustling — it's a very, very busy port and it's thriving for Baltimore. And now it's devastated."

Baltimore's Key Bridge was built in the '70s, but has a deep and patriotic history

Daraius Irani, an economist at Towson University, estimates that the port's closure is costing between $10 million and $15 million a day in lost economic activity. And at least another $1 million a day in state and local taxes won't be collected while the port is closed.

Still, Irani says the port — which last year had its best year ever — should fully rebound. That's in part because Baltimore's port is about a day further inland than many others on the Eastern seaboard, putting it closer to points in the Midwest.

Businesses near the bridge could see fewer customers

The town of Dundalk is among the Maryland communities near the Key Bridge likely to see less traffic while the bridge is down. Laurel Wamsley/NPR hide caption

The town of Dundalk is among the Maryland communities near the Key Bridge likely to see less traffic while the bridge is down.

The bridge's absence will almost certainly have a longer impact on the small businesses located near its entrances on either side of the Patapsco River.

Joe Gold is the general manager of Key Brewing, a craft brewery in the town of Dundalk. Like the bridge, the brewery was named after Francis Scott Key, who wrote "The Star-Spangled Banner."

"We're not shut down I mean, it's not like that," Gold said Wednesday. "It's just ... the community is going to have to readjust."

With the Key Bridge closed, the traffic that would have passed by to get on I-695 is now taking alternate routes — routes that don't pass by Key Brewing's taproom.

"When I came to work this morning, past 95 to our office, it was the least amount of traffic that I've ever seen on my commute," Gold says.

He says that's a sign that people aren't coming that direction anymore, at least during their daily commutes.

Loss of ship's power and stiff current may have led to bridge collision, experts say

Is he worried about his business surviving? Not just yet.

"It's still too early," he says. "It's still too fresh to kind of know how deep of an impact this is going to have."

It all depends on how long it takes to clear the port — and rebuild a very long bridge.

Maps of the April 2024 Total Solar Eclipse

By Jonathan Corum

On April 8, the moon will slip between the Earth and the sun, casting a shadow across a swath of North America: a total solar eclipse.

By cosmic coincidence, the moon and the sun appear roughly the same size in the sky. When the moon blocks the glare of the sun, the sun’s outer atmosphere, or corona, will be briefly visible.

Below are several maps of the eclipse’s path as well as images of what you might experience during the event.

Where Can I See the Total Eclipse?

The eclipse will begin at sunrise over the Pacific Ocean, then cut through Mexico and cross the United States from Texas to Maine. Most of North America will see a partial eclipse, but viewers within the deepest shadow — a band sliding from Mazatlán, Mexico, to the Newfoundland coast near Gander, Canada — will experience a total solar eclipse.

Viewers inside the path of the total eclipse may notice a drop in temperature , a lull or shift in the wind , the appearance of bright planets in the sky, and the quieting of birds and other wildlife.

Many cities lie inside the path of the total eclipse, as shown below, the width of which varies from 108 miles to 122 miles.

If the sky is clear, viewers in the path of the total eclipse should see a “diamond ring” effect a few seconds before and after the total eclipse, as the edge of the sun slips in and out of view.

The sun’s outer atmosphere, or corona, is normally hidden by the sun’s glare. These tendrils and sheets of gas, heated to a million degrees Fahrenheit or more, are in constant motion and shaped by the sun’s swirling magnetic field.

The sun is relatively active this year and is nearing the expected peak of its 11-year solar cycle . Researchers at Predictive Science are using data about the sun’s magnetic field to predict and model a dramatic corona for the April eclipse.

What Colors Should I Wear?

As the sky darkens, light-sensitive cells in human eyes become more sensitive to blue and green hues than to reds and oranges. This shift in color perception is known as the Purkinje effect , after a 19th-century Czech scientist, and is typically seen at twilight.

People watch the 2017 total eclipse at Southern Illinois University.

To take advantage of the Purkinje effect, wear green clothes or a contrasting combination of greens and reds. Blue-green colors (shorter wavelengths) will appear brighter, while red colors (longer wavelengths) will appear to recede into the darkness.

What If I Miss It?

The next two total solar eclipses in the United States won’t occur until 2044 and 2045 . But eclipse chasers might catch one in 2026 in Greenland, Iceland and Spain; 2027 along the coast of Northern Africa; 2028 in Australia and New Zealand; or 2030 across Southern Africa and Australia.

April 8, 2024, Solar Eclipse Will Pass Over All 7 US Cities Named Nineveh?

Some christian groups have preached that the eclipse is a bad omen., published march 31, 2024.

About this rating

On April 8, 2024 , a total solar eclipse will blot out the sun for a couple of minutes in a small band across the United States. The eclipse's totality is the only time humans can look directly at the sun without damaging their eyeballs, and so millions of people from around the world will flock to cities in the path of totality, such as Dallas and Indianapolis.

Eclipses do not discriminate, so anyone in the path of totality will be able to see the sun fully obstructed by the moon. However, some people have claimed online that there's one interesting coincidence about the eclipse's path of totality: It will pass through every city in the United States named Nineveh. That name is shared by an ancient city in modern-day Iraq that was described in the bible as "evil."

Snopes received an email from a reader who requested that we check the claim about cities named Nineveh in the eclipse path. In our research, we discovered that many of the people making the claim were Christians who were interpreting the eclipse as a bad omen .

Contrary to the claims, Snopes discovered that the path of totality in the eclipse does not pass through seven cities in the United States named Nineveh — it passes through just two. But before counting places named Nineveh, we must first briefly clarify how eclipses work.

How Eclipses Work

A total solar eclipse is caused by the moon and the sun being in exactly the right place at exactly the right time. The moon fully blocks the light from the sun, casting a really large shadow on the earth. Those inside the moon's shadow, called the umbra, are the only ones who will be able to look directly at the sun without eye protection, and it's the small path of the umbra that people travel to in order to see the total solar eclipse. The website GreatAmericanEclipse.com created a visualization of the shadow's path across North America.

Outside the umbra, where the moon blocks only some of the sun, is called a partial solar eclipse, and the sun looks like it has a giant bite taken out of it. You cannot view a partial solar eclipse without special eclipse glasses, and this area is much, much larger than the umbra. The entirety of the continental United States will be able to see a partial solar eclipse on April 8, just as the entirety of the United States (even Alaska and Hawaii) was able to see a partial solar eclipse in 2017 .

The cool part (partial) of an eclipse can be seen from a very large area, as long as you wear eclipse glasses. The really cool part (total) of an eclipse can be seen only in a small area. It is the total eclipse that people have thought held religious significance since practically as long as humans have had eyes to see and religions to follow.

To quote the essayist Annie Dillard :

A partial eclipse is very interesting. It bears almost no relation to a total eclipse. Seeing a partial eclipse bears the same relation to seeing a total eclipse as kissing a man does to marrying him, or as flying in an airplane does to falling out of an airplane. Although the one experience precedes the other, it in no way prepares you for it.

Places Named Nineveh

We started with Wikipedia's list of places named Nineveh to get a general idea of where to look. Of course, we cross checked those results with more-reliable sources of knowledge, including Google Maps and data from the U.S. Census Bureau.

Wikipedia listed just six places in the U.S. named Nineveh, which made our claim of seven dubious to begin with. Checking the locations of those places on Google Maps, we found that three were actually townships, a term used for county subdivisons in some states.

The first was the largest, Indiana's Nineveh Township (south of Indianapolis), which contains a small hamlet of the same name. Both the township and the hamlet will indeed fall in the path of the total eclipse.

Next, Wikipedia listed two townships in Missouri — one in Adair County (about halfway between Kansas City and Davenport, Iowa) and one in Lincoln County (about an hour northwest of St. Louis). But neither of the two townships contained a village named Nineveh on any of the maps we looked at. Furthermore, neither of the townships fell in the path of the total eclipse.

The fourth place on Wikipedia's list, Nineveh, New York, is about 30 minutes east of Binghamton. We found it marked on maps but, again, it did not lie in the path of totality.

Fifth: Nineveh, Pennsylvania, roughly halfway between Pittsburgh and Morgantown, West Virginia. This Nineveh was marked on maps, but it was also outside of the total eclipse. It was also the last Nineveh listed by the U.S. Census Bureau.

Sixth, we found Nineveh, Virginia, an hour and a half west of Washington, D.C. This was the easiest to check: Nobody in the state of Virginia will be able to see full totality during the eclipse. We did not find a label for Nineveh on maps, and buildings located in the area had their postal addresses listed as White Post, Virginia.

That completed the Wikipedia list, but various posts about the supposed line-up listed two more Ninevehs located in the U.S.: one in Texas and one in Ohio.

Nineveh, Texas, was not marked on maps, nor did it have a post office. It was located not far off of Interstate 45 halfway between Houston and Dallas. This one was close, but we eventually confirmed that it would be outside of the zone of totality by referencing nearby cities that also were outside of totality.

Nineveh, Ohio, was a similar story: not found on maps, no post office, no Census data. But this Nineveh, 30 minutes northwest of Dayton, was finally our second hit.

In total, we counted two places named Nineveh in the United States that could be found in the path of totality.

April Fools' Day pranks: Apps to translate baby stoner sayings, a ghostbuster at Tinder

Every april 1, brands and companies want to get some laughs – and attention – with goofy new 'product' launches. here are some ideas from companies such as sweetgreen, welch's and omaha steaks..

If you don't like Mondays, this one may especially be grating. It's April Fool's Day , when you should trust no one and question everything.

The roots of April Fools' Day may date back before to before the 15th century. But the modern-day April Fools' Day has become a day to prank a friend, family member, co-worker − or your customers.

Even though some companies have had April Fools' pranks backfire , marketers continue to issue spoof products in attempts to get some laughs and attention.

Already ahead of April Fools' Day, 7-Eleven has hinted at a possible prank product: In addition to new Lemon Lime, Green Apple and Sweet Orange flavored 7-Select sparkling waters, out now with partner Miracle Seltzer, there's a fourth flavor coming April 1: Big Bite Hot Dog.

The hot dog-flavored water "combines the mouthwatering experience of 7-Eleven’s iconic Big Bite Hot Dog into one refreshing beverage – ketchup and mustard included," the convenience chain says in a press release . "Say goodbye to the days of alternating bites of a hot dog with sips of a beverage, now those on the go can swap the bun for bubbles."

Krispy Kreme: A special doughnut deal for April Fools' Day

Will Big Bite Hot Dog sparkling water be sold? Its availability will be announced April 1. However, some reporters were sent a can of the drink. USA TODAY can confirm that it definitely smells like hot dog water and has a smoky aftertaste.

If you are interested in trying it, both 7-Eleven and Miracle Seltzer have hinted at having some to give away on their Instagram pages. (If you get a can, share with a friend as it's 16 ounces.)

Here's a roundup of many of the brand-related April Fools’ gag announcements. You've been warned.

Sour cream & onion flavored soda

Despite the proliferation of crazy-flavored products including Peeps-flavored Pepsi , Frank's RedHot sauce-flavored Vlasic pickles and Doritos Nacho Cheese-flavored liquor , healthy soda brand OLIPOP and Pringles are not really teaming up to bring to market a Sour Cream & Onion soda.

The product would have been "a match made in heaven … to bring the delicious, tangy flavor of Pringles’ Sour Cream & Onion flavor to life in liquid form with prebiotic benefits," the companies said.

Stoner lingo translation app

Another dream team prank product: Rosetta Stoned, a mobile app from Rosetta Stone and medical marijuana company Fluent , that "bridges the conversational gap between novice users and seasoned stoners in any social setting."

Da da decoder

Infant equipment site BabyQuip has its own language-bridging lark: the “Baby Translator” app, to decode your baby's secret language.

"Say 'goodbye' to restless nights as you decode your baby's coos and cries instantly, providing you with the understanding you need as a parent, all in one convenient app," it promises.

An AI-powered plush doll

Custom stuffed animal maker Budsies already makes selfie plush dolls with a built-in voice recorder. Its April Fools' spoof: Artificial intelligence-enabled dolls that "come programmed to learn everything about you and to become your new best friend."

A 50-pound Bearabuddy

Sorry to the 3,500 or so who have already signed up to buy Bearaby's Jumbo Benji plush toy, which is four times the size of its regular weighted plush toys and twice as heavy as its heaviest weighted blanket . This isn't actually going to be sold. But it is real and will be making its home in the lobby at The Child Mind Institute in Harlem to welcome children and their families. More weighted plushies are due the day after April Fools' Day, the company says.

A sleeping bag to go bananas over

The Dole Banana Peel Sleeping Bag, conveniently promoted as being available on April Fools' Day only, is made from actual banana fiber and "allows parents to escape into their own cocoon of sensory deprivation."

A full-body cleaning suit

Outrageous clothing company Tipsy Elves has a special product for April Fools' Day: The Mopsie. You don't need paper towels anymore, you can use your body to clean up those messes, with this "innovative, wearable microfiber towel jumpsuit" for "effortlessly soaking up spills and messes with ease." There's also a Baby Mopsie for "hard to reach places."

Korean BBQ deodorant

Kevin's Natural Foods , which has paleo- and keto-certified ready-to-cook and easy-prep entrées, is touting a new line of personal care products inspired by its food dishes including Korean BBQ Deodorant, Cilantro Lime Toothpaste, Lemongrass Basil Shampoo and Tikka Masala Sunscreen.

"These new face, body and hair care essentials will help fans prioritize self-care inside and out," the company says.

Omaha Steaks' meaty sprays

Omaha Steaks has its own personal care prank product: Meaty Spritz sprays with flavors such as Omaha Fog, Hog Haze, and Cock-a-Doodle-Dew.

"The world’s first protein-infused, flavor-packed, portable pump spray … (to) enjoy all the mouthwatering flavors of your Omaha Steaks gourmet favorites no matter how far away from the kitchen you are!" the company says.

Sriracha toothpaste

Asian sauce maker Lee Kum Kee , which makes Sriracha Chili Sauce and Sriracha Mayo Dressing, is introducing – not – its Siracha Mayo Toothpaste. It's "fiery and creamy goodness … is sure to spice up your morning dental routine."

Post-salad dental kit

Need some less powerful toothpaste? Sweetgreen offered these fanciful personal hygiene products as part of its Sweetgreen After Salad Kit, which is "designed with your pearly whites in mind … offering everything you need to freshen up post-meal."

Choose from Miso Ginger Toothpaste, Spicy Cashew Mints, Lime Cilantro Dental Floss, and Sweetgreen Toothbrush and Floss Picks.

Fruit juice lip gloss

More personal care prank products: Welch’s Juicyfuls Juicy Fruit Lip Gloss – now available in five flavors: grape, orange, peach, strawberry and raspberry – made with real juice from Juicefuls fruit snacks so "you get that irresistible sweet flavor you love, all in a lip gloss that's as fun as it is nourishing."

Protein-powered seasonings

Quest Nutrition , maker of protein powder, snacks and other products, has a prank product line of seasonings including All Purpose, Lemon Pepper, and Garlic Herb, each of which deliver "21g of protein, 2g of net carbs and less than 1g of sugar."

If you want to try Quest's real products, you can use code NOJOKE for free shipping on online orders over $49 April 1-3.

Superpowered Superfeet?

These would certainly come in hand on a run, but – sorry – it's a jogging joke. Superfeet SuperBoost Power E-Soles gives you 8 hours of continuous battery-powered boost, for almost Iron Man-like propulsion. "All the comfort and support of Superfeet , now with electrifying performance," the company says in a video about the prank product. "It's like having a powerful electric motor in your shoes."

Scotch tape-branded Scotch?

This shenanigan seems like a blend that could stick: Scotch Whisky by Scotch Brand. The whisky "features a nose of cherry wood and a delightfully smooth finish that hits like a well-wrapped gift."

Who you gonna call when ghosted? This new title at Tinder

Dating app Tinder announced a new April Fools' Day hiring quest for a Vice President of Ghost Hunting to help combat "one of dating culture’s most prevalent vices – ghosting," a practice inflicted on 78% of singles already in 2024 (an untrue fact from Tinder).

Patrón's bringing back a beloved liqueur. No kidding.

Patrón patrons get some good news today. The premium tequila maker chose April Fools' Day to announce the return of its Patrón XO Cafe tequila-based coffee liqueur, which was discontinued in 2021. Since production ceased, devotees took to social media and signed a petition asking parent company Bacardi to bring it back.

Made with Patrón Silver tequila and Arabica bean coffee – the dry liqueur can be sipped straight, in cocktails and as dessert topping – Patrón XO Cafe will begin arriving in stores again later this month.

Say it with dead flowers

Don't forget to put roses on your April Fools' Day list. UrbanStems has this "special" delivery, The Dead Inside Collection, "an assortment of dead flower bouquets, dead plants, half empty vases, and more for the pessimist in your life." But, for real, check UrbanStems' social media accounts including Instagram for how to get 20% off an order of real flowers.

Cheesecake Factory's real deals

The Cheesecake Factory also has a deal that's no joke: Sign up for the chain's Cheesecake Rewards loyalty program on April 1 to get an Any Slice, Half Price reward, redeemable for 50% off any slice of cheesecake or layer cake, with any food or beverage purchase (no gift cards).

Those who were members before April 1 will find something special in their account on Monday, too: either a free slice of cheesecake each month for a year, a free whole cheesecake, a free slice of cheesecake, $5 off $25 purchases, or $10 off $40 purchases. (All rewards redeemable by April 16; can be redeemed for dine-in, to-go and DoorDash.)

New merch from Dunkin', bonus points in app

Dunkin' announced it is going back to its roots and rebranding to just "Donuts'" on Monday, April 1. To celebrate the rebrand, the company is selling "Donuts'" merch, including sweatshirts that read "DONUTS," on ShopDunkin.com .

Additionally, Dunkin' Rewards members will receive 3x bonus points on any donut order through the mobile app on April 1.

Urban Outfitters launches 'Name Three Shirts' movement

Urban Outfitters said it is launching a global movement to "stand in solidarity against band-tee-shaming" by launching a new collection called "Name Three Shirts."

The t-shirt line "playfully mocks the gatekeeping attitudes of older generations who insist that band-shirt wearers should be required to name songs by those artists," the company said in a news release.

The line, which features revamped logos from bands such as The Grateful Dead, Joy Division and Led Zeppelin, is a "playful jab at the attitudes of older generations, and fights back against the misogynistic undertones of the infamous ‘name three songs’ line of questioning," Urban Outfitters said in the news release.

The collection of shirts is available online and in select Urban Outfitters stores starting April 1. You can shop the collection online here .

Auntie Anne's, Frontier Airlines collaborate on Pretzel Plane

Auntie Anne's pretzels and Frontier Airlines announced they have collaborated on the newest addition to Frontier's fleet: the Pretzel Plane.

According to a news release, the plane includes new in-flight entertainment featuring Auntie Anne's pretzels rolled seat-side, the "luxurious" smell of hot, fresh pretzels throughout the cabin and airplane-shaped pretzels if you're feeling hungry.

Moe's Southwest Grill, Sonic team up to introduce a Queso Slush

Two popular fast food chains announced a collaboration that is sure to be polarizing.

Moe's and Sonic announced a new beverage, the Queso Slush, a queso-flavored slushie. "The frozen goodness of a Sonic Slush meets the delicious flavor of Moe's queso."

How to travel around the Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse in Baltimore: A look at the traffic impact and alternate routes

By Rohan Mattu

Updated on: April 1, 2024 / 8:13 AM EDT / CBS Baltimore

BALTIMORE -- The collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore early on the morning of March 26 led to a major traffic impact for the region and cut off a major artery into and out of the port city.

Drivers are told to prepare for extra commuting time until further notice.

Locator map showing the typical traffic routes of cargo vessels passing beneath the bridge and the trajectory Dali followed before the collision.

Alternate routes after Francis Scott Key Bridge collapse

Maryland transit authorities quickly put detours in place for those traveling through Dundalk or the Curtis Bay/Hawkins Point side of the bridge. The estimated 31,000 who travel the bridge every day will need to find a new route for the foreseeable future.

The outer loop I-695 closure shifted to exit 1/Quarantine Road (past the Curtis Creek Drawbridge) to allow for enhanced local traffic access.

The inner loop of I-695 remains closed at MD 157 (Peninsula Expressway). Additionally, the ramp from MD 157 to the inner loop of I-695 will be closed.

Alternate routes are I-95 (Fort McHenry Tunnel) or I-895 (Baltimore Harbor Tunnel) for north/south routes.

Commercial vehicles carrying materials that are prohibited in the tunnel crossings, including recreation vehicles carrying propane, should plan on using I-695 (Baltimore Beltway) between Essex and Glen Burnie. This will add significant driving time.

Where is the Francis Scott Key Bridge?

The Key Bridge crosses the Patapsco River, a key waterway that along with the Port of Baltimore serves as a hub for East Coast shipping.

The bridge is the outermost of three toll crossings of Baltimore's Harbor and the final link in Interstate 695, known in the region as the Baltimore Beltway, which links Baltimore and Washington, D.C.

The bridge was built after the Baltimore Harbor Tunnel reached capacity and experienced heavy congestion almost daily, according to the MDTA.

Tractor-trailer inspections

Tractor-trailers that now have clearance to use the tunnels will need to be checked for hazardous materials, which are not permitted in tunnels, and that could further hold up traffic.

The MDTA says vehicles carrying bottled propane gas over 10 pounds per container (maximum of 10 containers), bulk gasoline, explosives, significant amounts of radioactive materials, and other hazardous materials are prohibited from using the Fort McHenry Tunnel (I-95) or the Baltimore Harbor Tunnel (I-895).

Any vehicles transporting hazardous materials should use the western section of I-695 around the tunnels, officials said.
