The Experience

We are a recently open hostel in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. We'd like someone to assist us in the hostel. We're looking for someone who is fun and easygoing, as my friend and I are both easygoing open-minded and fun people. For the past 11 months we were managing it together but as we also have other jobs we want someone to assist as bring new ideas that are always welcome. You will be in an environment where you will be meeting different people :)

Everything was very good, and they were super nice, welcoming, and flexible during my stay. The hostel is located in a great area, which felt very safe and was also convenient for getting around. I would definitely come back and volunteer here again. I had a great time and would highly recommend ❤️

My time at the hostel was absolutely amazing! The staff made it such a wonderful experience, everyone was so helpful & kind. I'm going to miss them all so much! The opportunity to meet so many international travelers, hear their stories, & go on adventures together was truly magical. I made so many friends! Dealing with the guests can sometimes be challenging, but nothing was ever too difficult or made it a experience. The place took some getting used to, frequent power outages & lack of consistent wifi made things a bit tough. But it was a great experience, & I'm grateful for the opportunity!
