Ivan and Jelena were great hosts! They made sure my first volunteering experience goes smoothly, were flexible with dates and provided everything in the description. They also helped with whatever questions I've had about the Niš and local culture. The hostel they run has a cozy, family vibes. Other guests in the hostel were extremely kind and easygoing people so the whole stay was a really good experience, I'd recommend to everyone.

Ivan and Jelena are excellent hosts. Tasks are super easy and everything is very clear. They take the time you need to explain you the things you have to do during your shift and they respect perfectly your working schedules ans days off. Niš is a pretty interesting town to volunteer, nice places to visit around and with an amazing cuisine to taste! I had a blast and I'd live to come back!

The owners Ivan, Jelena (and future Peter 👶) are super nice, always making sure your stay is comfortable and giving you advice on everything you can do around 😎 (I arrived the day of my birthday so they bought me a cake for example 🥰) Niš is a perfect place to relax after a long trip, just walking along the river, chilling in the parks around 🌳 or inside the beautiful fortress. They also own a pet shop next to the hostel and feed some stray cats and dogs 🐶 so you'll always have a furry friend to play with 😉 Hvala lepo Ivan and Jelena for a great month volunteering with you 😘
