I spent a lovely stay in Aarhus at the hostel! I met really kind volunteers and staff; everyone was friendly. The work was easy, and there was enough free time to explore the hostel. Nevertheless, Aarhus is a bit small for a month-long stay, but we found ways to spend time together with the other volunteers. The work schedule was flexible, we had all the food we needed, and the volunteers' room had curtains around each bed. I truly felt part of the team. During my stay, I was able to improve my English skills and also practice Spanish. Thank you very much for this experience!

I had a wonderful time at the hostel. The working hours are 4–5 hours a day with two days off per week. The tasks mainly consisted of keeping the guest rooms and bathrooms clean. During the evening shift you are also available by phone to answer guests' questions. The staff are all very friendly and always willing to help. The atmosphere in the hostel is very calm as mostly school classes stay there for a few days. The other volunteers became good friends during my time there. Thank you for the great experience!

I had a wonderful time at the hostel in Aarhus! The tasks were very manageable and I found the scheduling system to be convenient and easy to understand. When I had any questions or concerns, whether it was about the specific work tasks or just general questions during the stay, there was always someone easily accessible that I could talk to. The whole staff was friendly and welcoming and the other volunteers were equally great and truly made the stay a memorable time. It was easy to settle in and find a routine here. I would definitely recommend this experience to anyone :)

I had a wonderful time at the hostel! Both the staff and the other volunteers were amazing. The location gave a good jumping off point for exploring the hostel, and the workload was never to overwhelming. It was a lovely month in Aarhus and I would 100% recommend it to other volunteers!!

I had a great time volunteering at the hostel. The work schedule is clear, usually about 5 hours a day with two days off. The tasks are fair and mostly involve cleaning common areas, the rooms, and keeping the hostel tidy. When things are quiet, you might do some deep cleaning, but there's no pressure or rush. The team is friendly and always willing to help if you have questions. The hostel is in a beautiful, central location, and accommodation is shared with other volunteers. Overall, it's a good place to volunteer if you want to meet people and enjoy your stay in Aarhus. 🎀🧸🌸
