You should volunteer at Funky Fes Hostel to get the experience of living in the oldest Medina in the world in beautiful Fez, Morocco. Morocco has a unique culture you will get to experience first hand. If you volunteer at Funky Fes Hostel you get experience with working in hostelling and you get to have a great time with the rest of our young international team.
At Funky Fes Hostel we have one manager, one cleaner/cook, and five volunteers. The hostel is managed by Yousra who is very passionate about our work in the hostel. The staff is very openminded and you will find volunteers from all over the world. You can expect to be treated with respect and kindness and we expect the same from our volunteers. It is important for us, that our volunteers are professional and take responsibility while working and representing the hostel, but it is also very important to us, that the volunteers are comfortable and are having fun at the hostel. We want the volunteers to see the whole work exchange as a great work experience and do the daily tasks with a smile.

Working at the hostel was an interesting experience. I was called to support the social media and make new photos to put on channels like Booking. Flexible hours.
Another great thing is that the hostel welcomes many travelers. The breakfast and dinner are excellent and bring a lot of the Moroccan culture.
The points that I could suggest for improvement: to have a fixed space for the volunteers. It would also be nice to promote, in addition to the Walking Tour, other types of tours for us to get to know the region even more.
I recommend the experience!

For such a foreign country like Morocco funky fes really did scoop me up and made me feel at home. I’m forever grateful for the amazing people and connections I made both volunteers, guests, & of course yassine. I will have the memories I made at funky with me until the grave.

In total i spent 10 days out of 30 In the first days everything was perfect and available I got a bed in one of the guests rooms Knowing There was a volunteer room that was in the process of being repaired and painted And we were asked to move to sleep in it Although not completed work out The situation was untidy there and the smell of dyeing, as well as the arrival of repair workers there in the morning Which makes it inconvenient for us to shift our efforts into our volunteer hours Which made me ask for dialogue in order to discuss the situation As a result I was expelled in an unethical

I felt very welcomed when I arrived at Funky Fes. Yassine was lovely and so were the rest of the volunteers. I also very much enjoyed the live music and the food cooked by Samira was delicious!
However, I felt there was a lot of miscommunication around the art. I was looking forward to painting my designs on the walls, but that didn't happen. As an experienced artist/ designer, I am used to working with briefs. There wasn't one here which is fine, but it would perhaps save disappointment for future artists if the owner knew what art he wanted in the hostel and was clear about it.

Viajar para o Funky Fes foi uma experiência que levarei sempre comigo. Todo o staff foi super acolhedor e um mega obrigado ao Yassin por toda a ajuda durante a estadia. A vibe do hostel é algo sem preço, uma vista incrível sobre a cidade e um local perfeito para trocar cultura e experiências com os outros viajantes. Espero conseguir voltar para pintar o mural que deixei planeado, com muita pena não foi possivel ser realizado devido a uma falha de comunicação com o dono, mas os planos estão feitos e do fundo do coração espero poder voltar a esta casa do outro lado do mediterrâneo.
