Program Details

We are one of the first hostels in Huizhou Ancient Town, Huangshan, and have been welcoming travellers for over 10 years!

Located in the heart of historic Huizhou, our hostel offers a chance to experience local life, explore traditional architecture, and discover the rich cultural heritage of this beautiful region of China.

We love meeting people from different backgrounds, sharing stories, and learning about different cultures. We hope to create a friendly and welcoming space where travellers can feel at home, connect with locals, and experience Huizhou beyond the usual tourist attractions.

No special skills are required! We're simply excited to meet curious, open-minded people who enjoy cultural exchange and would like to experience everyday life in a traditional Chinese town.


Activities & Shift

We're looking for friendly, easygoing volunteers to help with simple daily tasks, such as keeping the hostel clean and tidy, looking after common areas, and welcoming guests. We'd also love some help creating English travel guides, taking photos, and sharing our hostel and the local area on social media.
