The wild the hostel is a really fun place to volunteer! A big plus is the people, guests and fellow volunteers, with which is really easy to interact and also make new friendships. The hostel is a really social one, and is mainly about partying and drinking, so be "aware" of that if you don't feel comfortable in these kind of situations, even though I would recommend you to try it out.

The experience is really nice because of the people and the friends that you meet there.! About the food is not that great but you have breakfast and dinner for sure. They have this horrible and unnecessary meeting at 6 pm every single day even if is your day off, what is really annoying because you cannot really explore the city after your shifts, or, what was my plan.. go to Vienna or Budapest. I think that even the managers hate it 😅 It's a good place to meet people and have fun.! But I don't recommend it if you are not a social person or you get tired of the party soon

Hey Carolina! We were very happy to have you in the time that you were here. We're sorry you didn't enjoy our daily meetings - we certainly do! We love sharing important information, seeing everyone's faces, and receiving feedback from y'all about your daily experiences! We are also happy to excuse volunteers if they speak to a manager, we just ask that they hang around the first week or so, so they can acclimatize to the city and hostel. Nevertheless, safe travels! Stay hydrated and stay Wild!

Experiência massa! O lugar é muito bem localizado e possui uma estrutura bem interessante, com dois hostels com propósitos diferentes.. Se você quiser fazer novas amizades, socializar e conhecer gente de todo o mundo... esse é o voluntariado pra isso. Se você espera apenas cumprir seus horários, esquecer um pouquinho o voluntariado e curtir a cidade por conta própria... aí eu já não recomendo. Tenha em mente que você vai ficar imerso ao hostel, com reuniões diárias (mesmo nos seu day off), tarefas extras que você precisa aplicar e presença nos eventos. As tarefas são relativamente simples.

The hostel is good for guests, but as a volunteer it wasn't a good experience. I felt lost in the beginning and I wasn't well received by the person in charge when I arrived. Informations were not clear, I needed to discover things by myself. The food wasn't as the description, with only 1 euro per person for breakfast and lunch, what wasn't enough. The volunteers room was dirty and dark. Working hours exceeded what was agreed with mandatory extra tasks and a meeting every day (including days off). Also, I think it is absurd not being allowed to leave the city in 2 weeks. That's why I left.

Hey Rhayrem! We're sorry that you didn't enjoy your stay with us. Our volunteers are more than welcome to ask questions at any time, and are even given a training shift specifically to do so. The food money is given daily to do a group shop, which stretches quite a ways, in addition to a home-cooked dinner. Volunteers can be excused from the meeting if they speak with a manager, although we do ask that you join in the social atmosphere of the hostel. Nevertheless, safe travels!

TWE is a place like no other, or at least I hope so! A place where everything is weird, so everything is normal. A place where anyone can be themselves and feel comfortable. A place to make many friends and potentially more than that. A place that opens you up and makes you more confident. A place run almost entirely by volunteers. It's because of these reasons that everyone says that there's something that makes you want to stay for longer, as it feels like a home, and the people feel like family. We're all different, but once you get accustomed, we seem the same, in a good way. Thank you.

I had amazing time in the hostel in Bratislava !! :) It's a great place to meet new people and have fun. There's parties and activities for every day you can join or host. The work was pretty simple and easy. And the people are lovely and welcoming. Wish I could stayed longer! <3

I stayed and worked at Wild the hostel. I had such an amazing time and was able to meet so many great people who i will not forget. The work was easy but could be tedious at times and they did expect you to work faster than you would expect them to. The staff room wasn't always the cleanest space due to myself and other volunteers not always keeping it as tidy as we could, and it got a bit crammed near the end of my stay but it is something you adapt to very fast and learn to love having so many friends near you at most times. And boy oh boy do they know how to party!!

Words can't describe how amazing volunteering at the hostel is. It really is a home away from home. I met so many lovely people and even formed new friendships. I was volunteering here for 7 weeks and although it can sometimes be a bit hard managing partying, working and sleeping - it's definitely worth it! All the volunteers are like a big family, trust me it's true. I've never had this feeling before at other places I've volunteered at but this one definitely makes it happen. Thanks to Jamie, Johanna and Mads (the managers) and all the volunteers!! I'll be back soon.💗
