The Experience

The job is way simple: it is mainly keeping the guests satisfied by socializing and generally be around and offer help and knowledge to our Guests. It mainly means to do our Hostel Events, like doing the BBQ on Monday, cook the Vegetarian Free Dinner on Sunday and Wednesday. Also our Volunteers help us with the breakfast. In low season during wintertime we need some simple help with the nightshifts.

Had a wonderful first worldpacker's experience at the hostel! I was intimidated and nervous at first but I genuinely felt at home from the moment I stepped into the hostel. The atmosphere was warm, welcoming and always so full of energy! The staff and the other volunteers treated me like family, from having delicious free dinners to exploring the city, I miss every moment of it. The work doesn't really feel like work since you get to mingle with like-minded travellers and the work is also flexible, making everyday feel like a new adventure. I am forever grateful for the opportunity :)

I had the absolute best month and a half while volunteering at the hostel! All of the staff were amazing and the volunteers, in addition to the guests, were all absolutely lovely. The hours were not too much and were perfect to keep yourself entertained, and were actually very fun experiences throughout the week to meet new people. I could go on forever about the time I had there, but I'll leave it at the fact that I already miss it so much and hope to go back in the near future:)

My first worldpackers experience was at Lolli's and it might've been the best month of my life. Everyone working there are so kind and genuine, especially the owner, Martin. I felt at home within the first day and made memories with guests and other volunteers which I will cherish for the rest of my life. It was always very safe and comfortable, I felt cared for. The job didn't feel like work at all and there was plenty of freetime to enjoy street festivals, dancing and hanging out. Words can't express my gratitude enough.

So my experience volunteering at the hostel was absolutely amazing. I'll keep it short because there's alot to say. Firstly the staff were so lovely, friendly and always willing/interested to talk. They engaged with the activities and made the hostel feel so welcoming. The responsbilities as a volunteer were very open to what you want to do (I reccommend cooking, this was my way of connecting haha) but having the freedom made it alot of fun. I met people from all around the world, went for hikes, went out to the bars and stayed up late playing board games. Highly reccommend. Thanks the hostel
