I had a wonderful time at NSH in Gijon. The hostel is run very well. The Host and the other volunteers were awesome, and made every day a deeply memorable experience. Being part of a team like that was beautiful and I am super happy to have made all these new friends. As volunteers we got access to surf boards wet suits and even surf lessons! I had wonderful surfing days and i am gonna continue this journey i embarked at the NSH Most of the guests at the hostel are on the Saint James Way. The hostel is a Vortex that draws in some of the most interessting people. Very recommended!

Couldn't be better!! Ezequiel is an awesome host, always open to chat and looking for every volunteer to enjoy the experience and feel comfortable. He offers everything that the description says and more! The tasks are simple and easy to follow, everything was respected. There is an incredible vibe going on the hostel, which is very nice and comfortable. Plus Gijon is a cozy and beautiful city, and near by there are quite natural places to discovered. I really wish I could've stayed longer. I got to meet incredible people and create memories with others Worldpackers. Definitely recommend ππ«Άπ»

Ezequiel the manager is fantastic, you can go to him with anything and he'll be there to help, he's created such a wonderful place at the hostel.!The team truly made it feel like home and I feel so lucky to have met such wonderful people. This experience is perfect if you want to improve your surf skills, practice Spanish, skate, hike, swim, party- GijΓ³n and NSH has it all! I would 1000% recommend this experience to other travelers!

This was my first Worldpackers experience and I absolutely loved it. I wish I could have stayed longer! I had a wonderful time with lots of surfing, sunsets, skating, beach days and fun nights. The house felt like home, the team was amazing and Ezequiel is a caring, flexible host who makes sure everyone is comfortable. The tasks are easy to learn and the shifts give you plenty of time to enjoy GijΓ³n and explore the area. I would highly recommend joining the team at the hostel - it's truly an unforgettable experience!
