I volunteered at Shopkot Hostel in Pangkor Island through Worldpackers for over a month. The team was welcoming, the work (reception, changing bed linens, cleaning) was fair, and I felt part of the hostel. The atmosphere is social, and I met people from all over the world.

Negative: Pangkor is a very small island, and it can feel a bit boring after 2–3 days if you’re not into slow island life.

Overall, a good experience, especially for those who enjoy calm places and social hostels.

En lo personal, fue una experiencia muy enriquecedora que disfrute y logre aprovecharla al máximo, la tareas son muy fáciles, te puedes organizar de la mejor manera, el hostal es muy limpio, esta muy bien ubicado ya que tiene accesibilidad a gran parte de las necesidades básicas cerca. Tuve la fortuna de compartir, conocer y mantener una buena comunicación con Kanna dueño del hostal quien me oriento durante mi estadía en la isla, excelente persona, excelente ser humano al igual que su equipo de trabajo.

so, i initially was meant to stay for 4 weeks but as soon as i got there i changed my stay to two weeks, part was because of the owners, and the other part was because of the island. when i got there no one was there to welcome me in, i was waiting for maybe 20 minutes for someone to open the door open for me. and through out my stay no one really explained me what i was meant to do or how. there was no communication from the owners, when people came in a lot of the times i would have to call them because i didn’t know where to put the guests, most of the time. it wasn’t what i expected.

Well, first of all we accepted your request for 4 weeks so that we can arrange some activities accordingly, but your last minute change to stay only for 2 weeks makes us stumbled upon our plannings, hope a advance notice before your arrival would make other host be prepared as well. Anyway wishing you have a safe journey...

Mi experiencia fue buena porque ya sabía lo que me iba a encontrar, antes de llegar había buscado información previa. Para futuros voluntarios es bueno que sepas, que los jefes no vienen, solo te comunican todo por wasap. No tienes un intercambio cultural, ni social y te sientes un trabajador. No hay cocina, ni nevera cosa que se necesita para vivir mínimo 2 semanas. Tus tareas son fáciles si hay pocos clientes, si se llena recuerda que el check in y check out y la limpieza del hostel depende de ti. La localización hasta el muelle o la playa cercana 20 minutos caminando.

Our stay at the hostel was very good. We were comfortable there, but it's true that they need a refrigerator and even a stove, but we were able to manage because we were only there for 15 days.
The work was good for us because we're a couple with experience in this field.
We also had time to work on our travel project, although that meant we didn't get to see the island as much, which is very beautiful.
We'd like to thank Kanna for the wonderful experience she gave us by taking us on a fishing boat.
Thank you so much, Shoplot, thank you Bern and Kanna.
