I had a wonderful stay at the hostel! Although it was abit quite during my time, i stayed busy helping in the kitchen, taking guests to town for shopping, and creating vedio content for their social media. I Made Friends with other Volunteers and even learned afew Spanish words from Agustin. The scenery and nature surrounding the hostel are absolutely breathtaking and truly made the Place feel like home. The staff and Security, especially Kaikai are incredible reliable, trustworthy and give back the best local food tips. Hope to be back!

I volunteered at the hostel in Nairobi and had an amazing time!! So many fun activities, lots of freedom, a lovely garden, and great moments exploring with guests. The only downside was that my role wasn't very clear, so I sometimes felt tied to the hostel. Because of the freedom and vagueness, it's harder to connect deeply with locals—you're really on your own. Perfect for travelers who love independence, freedom, going out with new people, cooking in the amazing kitchen and relaxing in the garden! The location is very very good and you will have so many lovely moments ❤️

It was a privilege to be the first volunteer at the hostel Nairobi . Daniel, Eunice, Taylor and sweet Ollie 🐶 welcomed me with open arms and made me feel at home. The hostel is super comfy, surrounded by nature right in the heart of Nairobi. I had the chance to connect with people from all over the world. Daniel is very flexible with working hours, which made the experience smooth and enjoyable. My only regret was not staying longer. They truly became my family in Kenya, and I hope to return one day. Forever grateful!
