It's a good option if you want to save money on accommodation and food. The volunteers were really nice, the location is great, and the beds were simple but okay. However, the team dynamic sometimes felt uncoordinated, and communication could be difficult. The organization wasn't always clear, and there were slow periods where the work felt unnecessary. If you've worked in a restaurant before, you likely won't gain many new skills here. Overall, fine for the experience, but with room to improve.

Strange, not what was expected, but ok Not about cultural exchange, or learning new skills. But, if you need a place to stay, budget, rest -> it'll serve you Work: Confusing but light. Worked as a waiter/bartender in the restaurant. Most staff doesn't have much experience, and they speak a different languages, making it a total confusion. In the end the owner expected that the unpaid volunteers would teach the staff to run the restaurant Conditions: You stay at a comfortable hostel close by. NO free laundry. Meals are mostly rice. In the 1st week there was not contact with the host
