The Experience

Hello travellers! My name is Duy, I'm 30 years old and I live with my 3 cats. I am the owner of a new homestay for backpackers right in the center of Ha Giang. I need volunteers who can help me with guest communications, cleaning, preparing breakfast, branding and social media work. The work time is very flexible. Let's come here to immerse yourself in our culture. Rest briefly before continuing your journey.πŸ‡»πŸ‡³πŸŒ I’d love to hear from you!

Everything was perfect, I had the best time in Ha Giang. Duy and his family were super nice and helpful, and the jobs were easy to do. I'm thankful I for this experience.

I had a great time volunteering for Duy andthe guest house! He, his family, and the four really cute cats are very welcoming. The work is very doable, and Duy is open to any feedback or ideas. He really cares about the work he does and about his volunteers. He put a lot of effort into making sure I had a good time here, and helped me to get to know the town of ha giang and Vietnamese culture a bit better. I consider him my friend by the end of this volunteering experience, and wish him and histhe guest house all the best!!

I very much enjoyed my stay at this place but there is many things that should get improved for future. Duy, the owner is very chill guy, you will laugh with him for sure! His parents live next doors and mom will cook you the most delicious food every lunch and evening! the food was really unforgettable! But remember you are in Vietnam and be careful what is on the table hahah πŸ€“πŸ˜ƒ Sleeping is in dorm room, very nice room! Bright and clean. Work is super easy - prepare breakfast, change bedsheets, simple cleaning. There is not much organization from Duy, so just do what feeels right todo

I really felt at home while volunteering at thethe guest house. Duy is a really nice host and even showed us local places to eat. When he didn't took us out to eat I ate with his parents for free, which was so delicious! The tasks are easy too: Doing a simple breakfast for the guests(around 8 am), changing sheets, doing laundry, and welcoming guests with some fruit. I also got to to the loop-tour with a generous discount and it was one of the best experiences I ever had. The cats are soo cute as well! I would really recommend it

It was my first time volunteering in a hostel and the experience is very good. Tasks are simple (preparing basic breakfast, washing dishes and changing the beds sheets). You can also help with creating a website or with social media. We are quite independent with the tasks we need to do. Duy is very friendly and always invites me anytime he goes out for dinner or for a drink. His family is very nice too. There are 4 cats in the house. And I could do the tour with his company with a big discount.
