My time at the host was incredibly special and unique. Getting to meet the most wonderful people that live in the area and travel through. Many nights are spent creating and playing music with a warm and welcoming community. You will feel at home here in no time, and life opens up in a whole new exciting way. The work is fulfilling and fun to get in the rhythm of. I feel so grateful to have spent two months playing, connecting, creating and learning from wise and opened hearted souls.

This was truly the most magical Worldpackers experience! As a first time solo traveler, I couldn't have asked for a better fit. The community and love here are so special, and everything felt magical. I loved the work, meeting people from all over the world, and connecting with other volunteers. The café was unbelievably beautiful, and I felt so lucky to wake up there every day. Thank you, Thom and Meru, for welcoming me and making me feel at home so quickly. Can't wait to come back! Miss you guys already! <3

I loved my month at the host. I became a part of the family very quickly thanks to loving Meru, the other volunteer ami and all the inspiring customers! I've never created so much art before, shared it and created with others. Tzununa is a very cute town on the host, a lot less touristy than the surrounding towns which i really enjoyed!! Thanks a lot for my time, love y'all!🩷🌟

The host was the most amazing experience as a volunteer! Meru was so unbelievably welcoming and helpful and we've become really good friends with her! The work is straight forward, customer based service, and such an amazing way to meet all of the locals in Tzununa. The bedrooms are comfy and the kitchen is perfect for basic use. We couldn't recommend the host enough - you'll never want to leave trust me!
