Program Details

We are not a party hostel. Our atmosphere is much more like a family home, and that is exactly how we want our volunteers to experience it.

We want you to feel at home, care for the hostel as if it were your own, and become part of our little family together with the other volunteers, the hostel owners, and our maintenance staff.

Being proactive is very important to us. During your shifts, we appreciate volunteers who notice what needs attention, help keep the space organized and welcoming, and contribute positively to the atmosphere of the hostel.
