The Experience

A social hostel made for travelers by a traveler. Our garden bar is the perfect setting for our guests to not only share travel stories but a place to create them. We're looking for a bartender to join our volunteer crew. Our social volunteers run the daily hostel activities and jump behind the bar on busy moments. As a bartender you will be responsible for opening, running and closing the bar.

Volunteering at this the hostel was an amazing experience. It was a great way to meet fellow travellers, and the team was incredible—supportive and fun to work with. We all became really close, making the job enjoyable and the time fly by. If you're looking for a place to pause your travels for a month or two, this is the perfect spot. I'll definitely miss my time here! PS get ready to learn some Dutch when you work here.

Cuckoos the hostel is a great hostel to meet many international travelers, learn about bartending and feel like home on the other side of the world! The other volunteers made me feel included and part of the group since the first day. Every few days we did some activities as a group and living together in the volunteer house made us a big friend group. Besides the other volunteers I met many other travelers and going out to Hoi An's city centre with the guests is so much fun. I got more confident in speaking English and the work is not too hard. Bartending and running the events is so much fun.

This was my 8th volunteer and my favorite for sure! I loved it so much. The team was amazingg, the work is easy and fun, breakfast is really good and we have our own house for volunteers. The vibe of the hostel is great, there are events every single night and is very social. Great place to meet new people! Ben is an incredible boss, he's fun and cares so much for the hostel and the volunteers. This place felt like home and I wish I could stay forever❤️
