My experience at the hostel was fantastic. From the first day, our host Albano and the other volunteers welcomed me warmly and always made sure I was comfortable. We learned and worked on permaculture at Albano's farm, and we also contributed to many tasks at the hostel, such as building animal houses and furniture, general cleaning, digital work, and more. The working hours were flexible, which made it easy to plan our days, and I always had plenty of time to do what I wanted. I couldn't recommend this place more!!

This was my first volunteering experience and from day 1 Alban was extremely friendly, accommodating and understanding. He is very passionate about permaculture, always willing to take the time to explain things to you and teach you all he knows. I learned a great deal in the last month and plan to take this knowledge to my next volunteering experience and personal life. The other volunteers also made the stay here unforgettable. Definitely a home away from home, I absolutely recommend coming to Sarandë and doing things volunteering experience with Alban, you're not going to regret it!

My first Worldpackers experience at the hostel in Albania was genuinely unforgettable. I thoroughly enjoyed my time there, meeting travelers from all over the world, sharing stories, and learning about Albanian culture in a way you simply can't get from a quick visit. The environment felt welcoming from the moment I arrived, and every day brought a new conversation or connection that made the experience even richer. Albano played a huge part in that. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the area and was always ready to guide and answer any questions any of us had. 10/10 experience

Staling with Alban in the hostel was incredible! I got to learn a lot about the Albanian way of life and got to see a side of Albania I haven't seen before. Albano is very knowledgeable with permaculture and anything plant related, really. He is also really funny haha. I would definitely recommend this place for anyone looking to stay sometime in Albania

The experiencie at the hostel was amazing! I absolutely recommend this experience to other People. The tasks were not hard, we took care of the hostel and the guests, some activities of cleaning, and the most funny part was going to the farm and learn about permaculture, work in the land and planting. The rooms are very comfortable, you share it with other volunteers. Alban is a very nice person and is always teaching you about nature and permaculture. I met beaituful souls. I'm so glad I came with my friend.
