I had a great time at the hostel :) The host Sandrine and other staff are very nice and I felt very welcomed and cared for during my stay. There are many other volunteers at the hostel so it is a fun environment . The shifts are well organized, tasks are simple and clear and the manager is always there in case you need any help. Food was always delicious and you have a lot of free time to explore the city. Thank you, I will definitely be back whenever I am in Laos!

We had an amazing experience with everyone there, specially with other volunteers and the hosts, Sandrinette made us feel at home. They are an organized and committed team to accomplish all the necessary tasks. We helped out at the hostel reception and received all the meals they offer through the app. Highly recommended, we'll miss them.

Miguel is an amazing and kind person, full of creativity and exceptional organizational skills. He personally painted the comments box, designed the form, and even managed the Excel values follow-up with great care. His dedication shows in every detail, and he always approaches tasks with a cheerful smile that makes collaboration a joy.
