I found in the hostel a second home truly. Gyoko ( my host) is one of the most generous people I have ever met. His good energy and open heart made this experience the best volunteering experience so far. The hostel is a place where everybody is welcomed. The tasks are easy and the guests are very friendly. The volunteer who has the chance to come here will be lucky. The city is a dream and I can't wait to come back in summer. I will miss this place very much. Thank you Gyoko!

This was my third volunteer experience, and I have no words to describe the fabulous energy of the hostel, Gyoko, and the other volunteers! Gyoko is an extremely generous, respectful, kind, and fun person! I felt like I was in my own home! And this was undoubtedly my best volunteer experience ever!

The hostel , it was my home away from home. Since I passed through that door I felt literally at home. Gyoko it's with no doubts the best host I could ask for , always making sure we're comfortable and have everything we need , The work is very chill and not demanding at all (at least not during the low season). Ohrid it's breathtaking ,the mountains , the hostel , the church it's just stunning… I just can't recommend it enough. Fala big brother 🤙 for everything you've done for us !!! See you soon …

I had an amazing time at the hostel! Gyoko is an incredible person — so kind, caring, and full of positive energy. From the first day, I felt completely at home and part of a family. The atmosphere here is peaceful and full of good vibes. I'm truly grateful for this experience and for all the beautiful people I met here. I'll definitely miss this place and hope to come back one day! 💛
