About the experience in: Zouk Mosbeh, Lebanon
Brazil
I had a great time at Damask Rose, the tasks are simple and the working hours are respected. The staff is also friendly!
The city is small, so it's good if you're looking for a calm place. If the plan is to go to Beyrouth, know that you'll spend a little more in transportation. Also, you'll be working during all afternoon, so the time you'll have to walk around will be more on your free days.
Overall, I had a nice experience here. All the best for Hicham, Ana and all the staff who I worked with :)

This is my first time volunteering with Worldpackers and my first visit to Lebanon, and I can't express how beneficial and transformative this experience has been for me. Mr. Hisham and the staff are incredibly friendly, and the tasks were flexible, allowing me to explore Lebanon while fully committing to my volunteer responsibilities. I highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for a meaningful adventure.

This is my first experience with solo travel outside of the country, and I have to say, I couldn’t have asked for a better host. He is a truly kindhearted man who goes above and beyond to be helpful. For anyone considering a trip to Lebanon, I wholeheartedly recommend taking the opportunity to stay with him. It’s been an enriching experience that I will always cherish!

For the record, Hicham is nice and respectful. Volunteering here was bad and I had a very uncomfortable and bizarre experience. The position I applied to was night shift reception/cleaning, I found myself working on a construction site with no proper equipment or tools. The shift was not as agreed and there was absolutely no work to be done on reception.
One night a volunteer got hurt in the construction and Hicham got very mad and screamed at me he didn't want any more volunteers and that I could stay for free which was very awkward, so I left the next morning to avoid conflict and stress

Host: we have this task Seb, is ok for you?
Seb: yes yes man,of course
Seb make absent
Host:Look Seb if you don't want, I understand, I bring you back for night shift cleaning
Seb:no no man,I love to help, please count on me
Result: Seb stole 2 weeks free of charge by doing only a not completed 1 shift
