This was my first experience with Worldpackers and volunteering at a hostel. Initially, I felt nervous and uncertain about what to expect. However, as I settled in during the first week and became more comfortable with the workflow, I found myself truly enjoying my time in Tamsui. As my departure day drew nearer, I felt a sense of sadness. I feel incredibly grateful and would like to thank Carrie, Peggy, Yun, and Sunny for this incredible opportunity. Overall, I highly recommend this place for those who are serious about housekeeping and enjoy the outdoors.

I really enjoyed my time at the hostel, Tamsui is an amazing place to stay at, and everyone in the hostel is super nice! The work is fairly easy and doesn't take a lot of time. I will definitely recommend staying here :)

First time volunteering in a hostel, stayed 40 days and loved every single one! I really recommend this experience, Tamsui is a gem (you'll never run out of day trips/half day trips/activities in the area), the staff is incredibly friendly and helpful, workload is lighter than expected and work hours are mainly going to be 2/3 a day (worked 5 hours only 3 times during my stay, a couple of times it took less than 2h). It's truly a valuable opportunity and I'm grateful to Carrie, Sunny, Peggy, Yun, Sandy and all the volunteers I shared this time with. Oh and you'll get 80nt x per work day

Carrie & the team at the hostel were really great and so much fun. The hours are not long usually, and the work is not too hard either. All you need to know how to do is clean and make beds! This was a great opportunity to explore the northern coast of Taiwan as well as quieter city living compared to the hostel central. It was a pleasure getting to know Tamsui and meeting other volunteers!

An amazing experience ! The staff is wonderful, very careful of their volunteers and I had amazing times with them! I will miss you guys ! The work is very easy, starts at 10 and can finish before 12. The hostel is clean and perfect for volunteer, nothing to say. Very well located with the lively riverside and the night market near the MRT station. You can still go to the hostel in less than 45min Definitely recommend you to rent a bike and go for a day biking on path n1. Another positive point : volunteer are paid :)(80NTD working day)

We had an incredible time here in Tamsui! We cannot thank everyone enough for making us feel so welcome. The tasks for volunteers are clearly explained and easy to follow. We always started at 10am and cleaned the rooms and bathrooms. Once this is done we were off and could do whatever we wanted. Depending on the number of beds and volunteers it takes about 1.5-3 hours during the week and 3-4 hours on weekends. The kitchen offers a toaster, a coffee machine, a microwave, a fridge and plates, bowls, cups, so that was very convenient. The place is also surrounded with many good restaurants!

It has been a brilliant experience and I had a wonderful time volunteering at the hostel Travellers. The tasks were clearly explained, which included basic housekeeping and cleaning skills. Every work day starts at the same time. You would get most of the afternoon off as well as evenings. Danshui is a very beautiful and scenic part of the hostel which is very lively during the day and night (night markets). Most of all, the staff and other volunteers made this an amazing stay with their hospitality and friendliness - absolutely recommend!

My experience at the hostel was really good to meet people, from Taïwan and the hostel volunteers. The staff is really friendly and helpful. After a while you feel like you're a part of the team. The working hours are not too long. Tamsui is a nice area to be around with a night market, tea shops and you can watch the sunset nearby the river while people are playing music. The hostel is comfortable, you can chat with people or stay on the quiet floor. I highly recommand this place for volunteering, especially because of the people :)
