Program Details

You will host/participate in our 3 set social events per week (Mon-Wed).

There are plenty of sights and places to explore in and around Dresden. We would like you to take our guests with you to those places according to your own schedule and preferences.

Lastly, we need help cleaning and simple tasks(e.g. the guest kitchen, bring up bed sheets or bring empty bottles to the store) (maybe two times a week).

You should make cool content for our social media (TikTok, Instagram) and be confident to post viceos/pictures which fit our vibe.

You will stay in one of our shared rooms free of charge. If you want to register at our address, we can give you the necessary certificate. You are welcome to eat our breakfast buffet every day!


Activities & Shift

On Mondays, you will host a pub quiz/trivia night in our bar, which you (with the help of chatGPT) will create. ( we don't always do this, it depends on the guest groups we have)

Tuesdays, we do Karaoke. We will set everything up, so your task would be to collect the songs, type them in the computer and participate (if you want).

Every Wednesday we host an international language exchange table. You will welcome the guests, introduce them to each other and generally just make them feel comfortable. Usually after a while it takes off on its own and you can meet people from all over the world.

Apart from those set events you can schedule the other tasks as you wish.
For the trips in and around Dresden, we'll be happy to give advice on where to go (and how to get there) and we'll promote trips that you want to take.

Should we need any help cleaning the guest kitchen, it usually takes about 1-2 hours and can be done after the breakfast is over.

Creating content for our social media can be a part of all of the other tasks. Take videos/pictures while being in the hostel and/ or the areas you go explore.
