Vesna and Nino were the most amazing hosts, the kindest people I’ve ever met. They became like family to me, always checking in to make sure I was having a good stay, making delicious meals for the volunteers + guests, and constantly ensuring I had anything I needed.
The work itself was super easy and the hours not too long. If I ever needed specific time off they were super accommodating and flexible as well. The benefits are really great, Free boat tours, kayaks, and bikes. All rooms were comfy with air conditioning too. Made lifelong friends out of the other volunteers. Would recommend

I enjoyed my time at the hostel! Vesna and Nino are very kind hosts. The hostel is 2 minutes walking to the hostel, and I loved going swimming every day. I met so many cool & interesting travelers here too!

Vesna & Nino made my stay in Ohrid simply perfect! The hostel is at an amazing location and the tasks are easy to manage. The hours are well organised and we had a great communication. They always had places to recommend to eat and where to go. And sometimes made lunch or dinner for us volunteers. I am so happy I stayed here with this incredible people. They thought me some Macedonian language, food and helped me with everything I needed. Hvala for my perfect summer <3

Absolutely amazing experience!!! Definitely coming back in the future to volunteer again. Vesna & Nino are some of the loveliest people you'll ever meet. The hostel is filled with character & great energy that is shared with everyone. Tasks were easily doable, lots of free time to socialize & explore. Rooms are cosy, hostel facilities are great. Ohrid is stunning. The food is great. Vesna is very kind & goes out of her way to help whenever it's needed. Transport is easily accessible. Hostel is in a great location. Thank you so much for the amazing experience, I can't wait to come back!! ❤️
