The experience

Work scope can vary from helping with checking in/out, little bit of gardening and cleaning, entertaining and giving help to the guests. It'll be a plus if you are passionate in cycling. No experience needed, we will provide training! There are 3 reception shifts all 4.5 hours.

We don't care about your gender, your religion or where you are from.
Most importantly positive attitude above all.
We look forward to having you here.

Regards
Howard

Program Details

The Hostel Volunteering Program is a unique opportunity for volunteers to contribute their skills and time in exchange for free accommodation at a hostel. The program is designed to give volunteers the chance to experience living and working in a hostel environment while also being able to explore the local community.

Volunteers can expect to receive free accommodation in a private fan room or shared dormitory with A/C depending on availability. We do not provide food however you get free coffee, tea, bicycle, and wifi.

Activities & Shift

The benefits of participating in the Hostel Volunteering Program include the opportunity to meet new people, learn new skills, improve language abilities, and gain valuable work experience. Volunteers will also have free time to explore the local area and participate in activities such as sunset mosque cycling tour, local Tuesday market, weekend night market, sightseeing, and cultural events.
