For my first volunteer experience, I couldn't have hoped for anything better than the hostel. I met a wonderful team who made me feel right at home (big shout out to Twan, Kaj, Christine and Robyn!). The work is fair and the hours are respected (between 3 and 4 days off per week to enjoy your stay), and you can make specific requests in advance for your schedule. You will be welcomed into a spacious, well-equipped 6-person dormitory in the best possible location: the central canals of Haarlem, 15 minutes by train from Amsterdam! Go for it with your eyes closed!

This was a great first experience volunteering. It's a quieter hostel with most guests being dutch, in families of couples, which makes it much more relaxed environment in the hostel. However, there are still opportunities to socialise with guests, staff and the other volunteers. The work schedule is very fair and flexible. Some day shifts can feel like a lot of work, especially on weekends. However, you have plenty of time off the explore NL. I was initially worried about doing night shifts but they ended up being very chill and easy shifts most of the time. Grocery budget is amazing also.

The hostel was my home for 2 months, and I couldn't have chosen a better place to start my volunteering journey in Europe. Everyone speaks English very well and is patient with beginners. The schedules are respected, the work is easy to learn and not stressful. Everyone is very kind, and we received a grocery budget for the supermarket — it's not a lot, but enough for basic meals. I highly recommend the experience. Thanks a lot to all the staff and volunteers! I made amazing memories and hope to see everyone again soon!

I spent two months at the hostel and absolutely loved the experience! The team is amazing, the city is beautiful, and there are so many incredible parks nearby (perfect for biking). Springtime at the hostel was truly something special 🌸🌷🌼
