About the experience in: Bố Trạch, Vietnam
Germany
Linh and her team were incredibly kind, welcoming and helpful from the very beginning. Big love goes to Sen and Trang! We shared daily meals together, which was a wonderful way to experience Vietnamese culture and connect with everyone. The work was very manageable and enjoyable: in the mornings I helped a bit at reception or created videos for Linh. From around 4 or 5 p.m. my shift at the bar started, where I sold drinks, hosted family dinner, and supported social events. If you enjoy meeting new people and like being part of a social atmosphere, this is a perfect Opportunity!

About the experience in: Bố Trạch, Vietnam
United States
I was a volunteer at the hostel in Phong Nha for three weeks. The reception position consisted of managing guest check-ins and check-outs, organizing tours and transportation, supporting restaurant operations, and providing a positive guest experience. Linh provided training, and was supportive, responsive, and open to feedback. The position had flexible hours, and I was able to explore Phong Nha in my personal time. It was a great opportunity to connect with guests and other volunteers! Thank you for the experience, Linh!

I felt very welcomed from the beginning. I got to spend time with Linh and her family, and eating with them every day. The experience itself was really nice, I've never done anything related to hostel working, but they taught me everything from the first day. I got to meet a lot of amazing people from all aroud the world and got to spend time knowing them better during the family dinners and playing together at the pool table and fussball table. I could grab a bike and go around phong nha, which is a very beautiful place. The working hours were really flexible and Linh let me choose my days of

It was a good experience being at the hostel. Linh was welcoming and friendly. Tasks given included basic reception/admin tasks which were very easy to manage. However, you may need to be flexible with your duty hours. Everything else was great!

This was my first experience and I will always remember it. I came to Linh without any expectations about what I wanted to learn or see, but I can say that I am more than satisfied. I have learned so much about the (working) culture in Phong Nha. I had some questions in my head regarding my future and this stay has helped me in the right direction. Also, I want to add that whilst I was staying here I had a motorbike accident. Even though I was incapable of doing work for Linh she let me stay. I am very thankful for my experience at the hostel.
