I loved my time in Taipei, the city is amazing and has so much to offer! the hostel is a nice place to work and live, 10/10 location, it's just not a very social hostel which disappointed me in the beginning but luckily the other volunteers were nice and it's easy to meet people outside. The work is also fair and easy especially when there are more volunteers. I felt very comfortable here, thank you so much for this experience! 🙌🏼

As my first Worldpackers experience, this was an incredible way to start. Had a wonderful experience at Dans Hostel, all the staff and volunteers were a pleasure to work with. May was a kind manager and accommodating. The work load was fair and I always had time to explore Taipei afterwards.

I really enjoyed working at this hostel, the tasks are simple and usually don't take too long, +/- 1h30 and then you have the whole afternoon to enjoy Taipei, and 2 days off in a row to go for a trip somewhere else, which is really convenient. And everybody is really nice. Thank you for this opportunity
