The Experience

No, you don't have to be awake all night ;) In this position, you work three to four days a week (one week three, other week four). You are responsible for keeping the hostel clean and quiet during the night. You help closing up our bar, check if the hostel is clean and neat, go to sleep (private room when you work) and help out our bar in the morning starting up for our hostel guests.

I had a great time in Zwolle. The Host and the people in general were so lovely. The tasks were as agreed on. The provided food was amazing. Zwolle in general is a very small but lovely city. Especially the nightlife is quite fun. Gonna miss everyone and can't wait to be back. Would definitely recommend it!

The hostel became another kind of family during my stay here. Everyone is so kind, the work is well organized and easy to understand, and the friends I have made along the way are just an added bonus. Zwolle is a great city if you are looking for something young, international, student friendly. It's not too small a city or to large, and serves as a great central point to travel from on your days off. I will be coming back:)

My experience in Zwolle was absolutely amazing! I immediately felt welcomed and taken care of. Everyone was super nice! I got to know about the work beforehand and everything was well-organized. The work was nice and I had a lot of free time to explore Zwolle, which is such a cute and beautiful city! The voluteers room was big and the whole hostel was great. If I ever get the chance, I would love to come here again and I would definitely recommend this experience! Thank you for everything!
