I had the most incredible experience at the hostel! The staff and other volunteers made my time there so special. They've created a family culture where everyone looks out for each other and I felt immediately welcomed to the team. The working hours are respected and duties very straight-forward. The team were also kind enough to let me have a chunk of time off so I could go on a little trip during my stay. I also went on the tours with the hostel and met so many new people! Thank you so much the hostel family <3.

The hostel is home away from home! The staff is super friendly and they offer flexibility in case you have a personal errand or activity. Besides working at the bar or at the front desk is an enriching experience that allows you to bring the best of you to the hostel, guests and volunteers. If you are talented or passionate about something know for sure that you will have the support of the hostel fam to apply it there if possible.
