I really enjoyed volunteering at the hostel! I met amazing people, acquired experience while doing the chores (which are very manageable and not heavy at all), and to top it off breakfast is great (banana bread and soda bread, yum). The schedule can be flexible, so you definitely can work/travel while volunteering. I have only great things to say about the hostel and the staff. Would recommend 100% and would love to come back!
