Casa de Vie

At Casa de Vie, you'll become part of our little international family. Every day you'll meet travelers from different countries, share stories, learn about new cultures, and create memories together.

Around 90% of our guests are international travelers, so it's a great place to practice your English naturally while experiencing real Indonesian hospitality.

As a volunteer, you'll help us welcome guests, share local recommendations, support daily hostel activities, and occasionally join our walking tours to introduce visitors to the local culture and hidden gems of Malang.

We're a small team, so everyone helps each other. We love volunteers who are friendly, open-minded, and enjoy meeting new people. You don't have to be perfect—we're happy to learn from each other.

If you're looking for a meaningful cultural exchange, new friendships, and a place that truly feels like home, we'd love to welcome you.

Come as a traveler, leave as a friend. ❤️

We're a small local team who genuinely enjoy meeting people from different cultures. Some of us have been working in hospitality for years, while others simply love making guests feel welcome. We believe that kindness, respect, and good communication are what make a great team.

As a volunteer, we won't see you as "extra staff." You'll be part of our daily life. We'll guide you, support you, and make sure you feel comfortable while you're here. We also love sharing local culture, food, and stories, and we're always happy to learn about yours too.

Our workplace is relaxed but responsible. We help each other, laugh together, and believe that everyone has something valuable to contribute.

By the end of your stay, we hope you leave not only with new skills, but also with great memories and friendships that last long after your trip.

One of the most wonderful experiences of my life! I've never met such kind people or been part of such a close-knit and welcoming team. A very special thank you to Devie, who was so much more than a host to me. She became a mentor, taught me so many things, supported me, and shared countless amazing moments with me. We also created so much fun and amazing content together, and I genuinely enjoyed every minute of it! I'm leaving with a heart full of gratitude and beautiful memories. I wholeheartedly recommend everyone to experience volunteering here!

What a lovely time I had at Casa Devie! The whole place is clean and well organized and the staff is so lovely and friendly, Devie really knows how to make a hostel feel like a home! I had fun the whole time I was there, so many trips and activities going on all the time. A special thank you to Devie for being so nice when I was sick and so accommodating when I had my last minute changes at the end 😅
Can't wait to come back to Malang and see you all again 🫶🏻

We were so happy to have Alice as part of our team! Her energy, passion and enthusiasm truly make our hostel alive. She helped with many things at the hostels, mainly every activity related to guest experience. She also had some initiative that helps our hostel to be better and she creates genuine friendship with customers and our staff. We will miss you! Thank you for everything that you have done for Casa de Vie. See you sometime again soon, Alice! 🫶🏼
