About the experience in: Copenhagen, Denmark
Italy
I enjoyed the experience. It’s a great place to meet both travelers and locals. The organization wasn’t perfect, I started without training, so I didn’t know many things and sometimes felt unprepared. Copenhagen is an amazing city, perfect for exploring by bike.

i had a pretty good experience volunteering here. The atmosphere was super friendly and I felt welcome from day one. I met amazing people and genuinely enjoy the work. however, the place is not very well organized , and i was asked to do a task that weren’t mentioned in the original woodpeckers exchange. for example I was asked to help the manage social media, serve breakfast and do extra cleaning duties - even to the listing only making cocktail and serving beer. cause of that I don’t think the description was completely honestly and i believe the future volunteers should be aware of this

We’re glad you enjoyed the atmosphere and met great people. We’re sorry if some tasks felt unexpected. We’ve updated our listing to make roles clearer. Tasks like cleaning or breakfast support are part of the shared experience in the bar area. Social media was a fun creative challenge, not a management role. We aim to create a positive and festive environment, but this only works when everyone contributes with the right attitude. Many volunteers return or even join our team, which says a lot!

It was one of the best experiences in my life so far. I met a lot of people from different countries and I have built fantastic human relationships that I am sure I will maintain over time, both with other volunteers and with workers and guests. The job was also cool, I highly recommend this experience to anyone interested!
