The Experience
The social volunteer undertakes activities such as: hikes, games, quizzes, barbecue, cultural kitchen, talk, more hikes, fishing, sightseeing, coffee and cookies, waffle baking, music – all in the name of cultural exchange and bringing people together. But most important is perhaps the conversations during coffee and cookies in the afternoon. Please note we can only host volunteers from EU/Schengen (or people holding an EU/Schengen passport).

This was my first volunteer experience and I loved every moment of it! Bergen is a truly magical place, and the flexibility of the volunteer position really allows you to explore the area as you wish. I highly recommend this experience to anyone hoping to enjoy nature while also connecting socially.

I absolutely recommend going to the hostel! This was my first experience as a volunteer, and I could'nt have expected a better one. Everyone there is so nice and welcoming, it is really easy to feel home. The social work that they expect from the volunteers is perfect to meet a lot of people and discover the city of Bergen. The hostel and the city are beautiful places that are really worth visiting. I can't thank people from the hostel enough for this amazing opportunity <3

The activities you prepare for the guests make you feel connect to each traveler and that's amazing because you have the chance to get to know so many people there ! I will truly miss Bergen and my time there !
