It was a really nice experience to volunteer at Three the hostel Guesthouse! Sharom is friendly and flexible, you will laugh with him! Tasks are easy, you just need to clean and make sure the hostel is clean. And sometimes there is work to do in another guesthouse he owns. The best job is literally in the pool! Thanks for having me, Sharom, it's great to be here!

I got the chance to experience real Malay culture, food and nature. I even enjoyed working in the garden at the guesthouse and it was fun taking care about the hostel. We were eating out for lunch and dinner so it was nice trying different meals and restaurants. The whole scheadule was very relaxed and the dinners were quite late around 10pm. I am so grateful for this whole experience. Thank you Sharom. I hope I will get the chance to come back!

My time at the hostel was fantastic! Sharom was so welcoming and great to work with. He kept me safe and well fed the entire time. It was great to work between the hostel and guesthouse, especially when we'd go for an afternoon swim after a big day of gardening. I will miss our chats and car rides to get putu piring. This place is certainly a home away from home.

This was my first volunteering experience, and I'm leaving with memories I'll never forget. Sharom made me feel at home from the first day, and I'm really going to miss all our long chats. I've learned so much about Malaysia and Melaka, he even taught me a bit of the language, we've laughed so much, and I even learned how to build a BBQ from scratch! But more than that, he was always there to help me, even during the hardest moments. I'm sure I'll come back one day. What an amazing place, an amazing hostel, and above all, an amazing person. Thank you for everything Sharom!

I really enjoyed volunteering at Three the hostel. The work isn't demanding, and the hostel is small, cozy, and has a very welcoming atmosphere. It's also close to the historic city center, which makes it easy to explore the city. During lunch and dinner, Sharom often took us to try local food, sharing a bit of his culture with us. That made the experience even more special.
