Volunteering at the hostel was a soul-nourishing and rare experience. From the start, UnaAga and the team welcomed me with such warmth—it felt like joining a family. The tasks were easy and well-paced, and the hostel itself is clean, beautifully designed, and wonderfully chill. Hualien is a place of quiet healing, where mountains and sea invite you to slow down and reconnect. If you're looking to contribute, connect, and grow, the hostel is a truly special place. I wholeheartedly recommend the hostel!

I had an amazing time in the hostel. Una is seriously interested in you as a person and your culture. The environment is very social, everyone is super nice and interested to bring you closer to Taiwanese culture. The work is exactly what is agreed on or sometimes less when there is not too much to do. I definitely recommend it to everyone! Big thanks to the whole the hostel Team <3

Leaving the hostel felt like leaving a warm home and that says a lot already. Every one is so welcoming and makes you feel like you are part of the family. The work is easy and mostly finished earlier than 1.30 pm, which leaves enough time to explore Hualien or have a chill afternoon in the very cute hostel-coffeeshop (with the best banana bread ever!). It was nice that I could choose my days off. And besides working together, the WorldInn family also shared a lot of fun activities with me, like going out for delicious dinners, interesting presentations, road trips and even karaoke hehe! 謝謝大家<3

I had the most wonderful time at the hostel and would highly recommend the experience to anyone. the hostel team was so kind and went out of their way to make sure I was comfortable and enjoying my time in Hualian. I really felt like a local and learned a bit of Chinese while I was there. The hostel is incredibly clean and the living spaces are very comfortable and inviting. The work itself is very easy and consists of cleaning the hostel, folding sheets and bedding, and making beds. Never more than three hours of a work a day. Do yourself the biggest favor and go to WorldInn :)

My time at the hostel was not nearly enough, I wish I could have stayed longer. I enjoyed getting to know Una, Aga, and Nicole! Una is sweet, always understanding, and communicates clearly. Also super flexible with volunteer's schedules so you can plan amazing day trips from Hualien. Both Una & Aga are passionate about their work and the amazing Hostel they have created, it's reflected in how they interact with guests and especially their volunteers. I highly recommend coming to Hualien if you like cycling, mountains, & beaches, you'll enjoy your time here.
