Where to begin... I spent 2 months with the team and I could not have wished for a better experience. Some became real friends that I'm so excited to meet again at some point, and the mood while working and after work was so fun. It felt like being on summer camp :) the hostelsi super well located in front of the pir (event thothe the hostelis quite a small town anyways), always 1 min away from the best sunsets. Thank you all and thank you Juliane <3

Thethe the hostelinthe the hostelis a very cozythe the hostelin a beautyful village surrounded by lush nature. The main lounge invites you to sit with a good book or contemplate the wonderful views through the large window, from which you can observe local birds and marine wildlife. Housekeeping tasks are simple, in my case, I helped with maintenance, so each day was different and never monotonous. The staff team is big and international and although i dont speak the language very well i feel so confortable. The kitchen is huge and very well-equipped.

I couldn't have asked for more for my first volunteering experience! It was perfect. All the staff were super welcoming, and I felt welcome from the very first moment. the hostel area is beautiful, and the guesthouse facilities are perfect. But for me, what really stands out and what I take with me are the people I met. I'm leaving with a great memory. Everyone was super friendly, we did a lot of things together, and there was a really good atmosphere among everyone. You've set the bar very high for my next volunteering experiences! Thank you so much for this incredible month!!
