It was a really lovely experience as I got to meet lots of great people. There were plenty of things to do in Belfast and the surrounding area so I was never bored. Tash was a fantastic manager and friend who was so supportive and Mark was very kind and welcoming to us volunteers. I enjoyed spending time with the other volunteers as well as meeting the people staying at the hostel! Fantastic experience, thank you!

I stayed in the hostel for four months and a half, and I have to say it was an amazing experience that would recommend to everyone. The work is very easy and straightforward, and the work hours are very flexible. Mark and Colette are super nice, kind and fun people. Tash is the best manager ever, she is always around to help, to go out, and to create fun activities for us volunteers. The facilities are very nice, and the hostel is really close to the City Centre. Belfast is a great city and GV is the perfect hostel to volunteer and get to know it. Thank you so much for everything!
