I truly cannot describe the generosity and kindness of the people at the hostel. The work is super achievable and very fun to do. There are also loads of local people to get to know, so you can properly engage in the local culture!! I loved my time here and only hope to come back as soon as possible. Zikomo Kim and John.

This is an amazing experience! Your tasks as a social media content creator is to take photos at your own leisure. There is a bar and restaurant, grocery store, and a kitchen, so you have everything you need! The pool and lobby are lovely. Thank you for everything!

I was lucky to get a last minute volunteer opportunity at the hostel and I truly loved it! Kim is a great manager and a very welcoming and helpful person. All staff members are super kind, as are Zambians in general. I didn't really work in shifts, but Kim communicated her expectations very well. The Vic falls are one of the most beautiful I've ever seen! If you get the chance, visit them also with the full moon.

I'd highly recommend the hostel to other Worldpackers. The team is great and the work that you do is flexible to your skill sets. the hostel supports a local orphanage so my main big task was coordinating their Christmas lunch and gifts for the children, which was incredible to be a part of. My hours were pretty self directed, but there was always someone around for support. I would love to come back someday! Zikomo Jollys
