My volunteering experience wasn’t exactly what I expected, and I didn’t fully connect with the opportunity. However, I had open and honest conversations with Ken, which ensured a smooth departure without misunderstandings. I believe communication, clarity regarding expected tasks, and the inclusion of new volunteers could be improved.

On the other hand, Ken has a strong sense of social responsibility, and Lisa was incredible with me at all times—always supportive and welcoming.

I had a great time at Infinity Hostel. The volunteer hours are reasonable and flexible. The hostel is new and therefore the amenities are new and works well. I got a discount on the Ha Giang Loop, the Easyriders are excellent and being on the loop is definitely the highlight of this experience. While managing their social media, I was able to gather 15.9k views thus far, with 47% followers and 53% non followers (new reach). I helped in reception in the morning while guests are prepping to go on the loop, serve coffee, tea, water, towel etc (2-3hrs)/day. Gather photos/videos and post them.

Unfortunately I had a super negative experience as part of this project! I hate to leave negative reviews but this is not what is advertised at all. I feel as if Ken takes advantage of volunteers. The world load is immense and although I felt as if I went above and beyond, nothing was appreciated. It is an expectation to do so much more than is advertised. I also got quite a few remarks from Ken about my age implying that I was young and therefore, didn’t know anything (mind you, I am almost 25). It was quite a disheartening experience and by the end, they stopped feeding me which was awkward

I had and still have an amazing experience with ken! His family has made me feel at home in Ha Giang. The students are incredibly kind and funny. Daily life included teaching my students, having family lunch and dinner and helping out in the hostel. On several occasions the students took me out on the motorbike and we explored ha giang region. The entire experience was so wonderful that i decided to stay in ha giang for another month and spend more time with my students and kens amazing family!

Amazing volunteering experience. Ken and Thuy are truly good beautiful people. What they do for the community, how much they care is just so inspiring. Ken’s need to support the whole spectrum of ethnic minorities made my heart melt. The lessons were awesome, students are very motivated, if you make them feel comfortable you will gain awesome friends. Ken’s tiny baby son is the cutest and his teenage daughter is amazing. The conditions in the hostel are just incredible, I would call it a hotel for sure. Meals were local, great. Highly recommend this beautiful community project!🩷
