Era the host was flexible for the hours and a solid host. The crew for the host was really good avi and suresh were very hospitable. They were going through crew changes while we were there. Lunch and dinner were provided and the food is made well by chef suresh. Tasks are easy to do- beds, basic cleaning, social hosting and content creation.

Era and Hash were amazing hosts who made me feel right at home. This was my first time volunteering and I was a bit scared at first but it turned out to be such a fun experience. I met many like-minded people, did just a couple of hours of chores in the morning, and then had the rest of the day free to enjoy the host. The family dinners were always a highlight and created a wonderful sense of community. I'll definitely come back and will recommend it to fellow travellers! We'll meet soon Era! Thanks for all the memories.

This makes us so happy to read! You fit right into the vibe here from day one and it was such a pleasure having you around. We’re so glad your first volunteering experience turned out to be a good one (and that family dinners got a special mention 😋). Thanks for all the good energy you brought — the place already misses you! Can’t wait to see you back in Hiri, you’ve always got a home here with us.Ciao for now, Jabez!

I had a great time!! the place is beautiful, I did not have a fixed day free in particular but the work to be done was not many, or at least they were manageable in autonomy. Era was a super host. He'll always be there if you need anything! The only thing he could improve on is his meal time management.

So good reading this! You were such a great help around the place and it’s even better having you back now as a guest. We’re really glad you enjoyed the experience and could balance the work with plenty of time to explore. Thanks for the kind words and also the honest feedback — always room to improve. You’ll always be welcome here anytime! A dopo Eddie!

I had the most amazing experience in Chili Crocs! It was super chill and everyone was so kind and helpful! The food is incredible! I did the morning cleaning and the social hosting so was a bit busy but very fun and always had the afternoon to myself - would recommend to everyone! I hope to come back again someday! Till then I will be making content online to show off my phenomenal experience 🥰

I feel so lucky to have had the chance to volunteer at Chili the host. It really felt like home. All thanks to Era and Kish, always caring and full of positive energy. Two gems of a soul ;) From day one, I felt welcomed and my tasks were clearly explained. I quickly settled into a nice routine. Being part of the hostel also gave me the opportunity to connect with travellers, especially during the delicious family dinners prepared by Kish. Even though the dorm is a bit tight, the access to the facilities is convenient. Era and Kish know how to make daily life smooth and full of good vibes.
