Skye was an absolute addition to our hostel and food trailer. Good with other volunteers and guests. Very sociable person happy to help where and when he can
The hostel was a really enjoyable experience, and eh location couldn't have been better. Andre and Jacey are really easy-going, make the work really fun, and maintain really good communication with the volunteers. They were always available to help with any questions. I was lucky enough to get assigned to the Hungry Giant food truck, where I set the record for sales by a volunteer. Two weeks in Northern Ireland isn't nearly enough time, and I look forward to going back as soon as I can. I would recommend bringing a good pair of hiking shoes, as there are so many trails to explore.

How the traveler helps the Worldpackers community besides volunteering.
After leaving his full-time job in 2014 to travel the world, Skye created his own website SkyeTravels.com to make traveling a reality for everyone, no matter their financial means. He can most often be found working diligently in a cafe somewhere in the world. So far he’s been to 51 countries and counting. He travels the world with his partner in a van, never content to stay in the same place for long (unless it’s at the top of a mountain overlooking a beautiful sea).
