Akari-San is a very sweet woman. I felt very welcomed by everyone from the moment I arrived at Hippo. I had an amazing time in Hippo with all the other volunteers. Everyone is so kind and ready to helo you anytime you need it. I'm so happy to have gotten this opportunity.

Akari-san is very trusting towards the staff, and supportive of new ideas, as well as staffs' opinions regarding certain customers!

She allows freedom to certain extend, which gave me a lot of space to help clean up, organise the hostel/bar freely, including creating an inventory check-list. I hope the list would help her and her staffs in future business to stay "responsible in consumption & production".

Although she is busy and visits periodically for short hours, she is highly responsive on text-messages.

I hope to continue to learn from her, even after my stay here has come to an end.

Akari-san is really nice and chill. All the tasks are equally organized for each shift and you have plenty of time to go out and tour. The hostel vibe is the best! also has a great location 2 min away from metro station. This was my first time in Japan and it was unforgettable thanks to the people I met here and the free time I had.
Would totally recommend and can't wait to come back! Saludos desde Chile🇨🇱

I would totally recommend this volunteering experience to everyone, it's close to everything, tasks are super simple, Akari-san gives a lot of free time to explore the city, the café on the 1st floor is super cozy and her bar, the 7Up is suuuupee fun and all the bartenders are really nice, thank you so much for everything!!!!
