Volunteering at the hostel in Zagreb has been one of the most beautiful and unforgettable experiences of my life. From the very first day, I felt truly welcomed, cared for, and part of a family. The staff always make you feel at home. What made this experience even more special were the amazing volunteers I met along the way. We shared countless laughs, deep conversations, and wonderful memories that I will carry with me forever. I leave Zagreb with a heart full of gratitude, knowing I have made friends for life and lived moments that I will never forget. ❤️

This was my first volunteering experience, and it was amazing. The team was very kind and warm, and I felt very comfortable. I definitely recommend it — the hostel is located in a central area, it's organized, clean, and the working hours are respected. Thank you to all the staff for this wonderful stay 🩷

I don't have enough words to thank the hostel for giving me the chance to live one of the most unforgettable experiences of my life. From the very first day I arrived, I felt at home. Every single staff member is genuinely kind to volunteers and truly makes an effort to ensure you feel comfortable—and you really do. It doesn't matter where you're from, what languages you speak, or what skills you have: at the hostel, there's always a place for you. If you're reading this—don't hesitate. Come here. You won't be disappointed! 😁 Hvala lijepo, the hostel ❤️

As this was my first volunteer experience I had a great time! From the beginning I felt nothing but welcomed and included by the whole team and the people I've met and worked with. Everyone was so nice at any time and that created a great atmosphere in the whole hostel. The work and schedule were easy to manage and I had a lot of free time to explore the city, which is easy because the hostel is located right at the center, so there are many different places you can visit by foot.
