Program Details

Join our sea-view guest house in Himara and help with housekeeping, general upkeep, and breakfast meal prep. We’re looking for friendly, proactive volunteers.

You’ll work 6 hours a day, every day of the week (please note this differs from the Workaway app’s standard schedule).

In return, you’ll get a shared dorm room with a sea view (no balcony), plus free access to a separate kitchen. Meals are provided sometimes by us, and other times you'll cook for yourself using the kitchen. You'll have plenty of free time to explore the area. Basic English and a positive, team-oriented attitude are preferred.


Activities & Shift

You will help 6 hours a day, 7 days a week as a volunteer.
Shift times may vary depending on daily needs, and can include helping with meal preparation as well as room cleaning.

Your tasks will include:

· Housekeeping: Cleaning guest rooms and common areas, changing linens, restocking supplies, and ironing.
· Breakfast meal preparation and serving: Helping prepare, set up, and serve breakfast for guests.
· General upkeep: Light maintenance and organizing spaces to ensure the guest house remains tidy and welcoming.

One of our team members will always be with you, so you’ll never be cleaning or working alone. We believe in teamwork and creating a supportive environment. Tasks will be assigned daily based on the guest house’s needs, with flexibility and a positive attitude being highly appreciated!
