Program Details

Our volunteer program is flexible just how we need you to be!
We'll give you a wonderful bed in one of our mixed team dorm in exchange for your helping hand around the hostel! And don't worry about spending lots of money on food. We've got a great kitchen full of free food; from cous-cous, pasta and rice to canned food, fresh fruit/vegetables, and a ton of sauces and spices for you to use! We also understand hostel life can get a bit messy, so we'd like to offer you our laundry service for free once a week! If all that wasn't enough, we'll even give you a discount at the bar to spend on food and drink. We've got your back new worldpacker and we hope you have ours!

Activities & Shift

Alright, here's that description adapted for housekeeping, focusing on activities and shifts, in English:

Whether you're on shift or not, we invite you to be a part of our family and spend time with our guests and staff!

And as far as the real work goes, we could really use your help keeping our spaces sparkling so our guests feel comfortable and at home! We want you to be the heart of our welcoming atmosphere, ensuring our common areas are clean and inviting! And of course, we'll be needing you to use your initiative and take control of anything out of place that needs to be cleaned up, re-organized, or re-stocked! This includes bedrooms, bathrooms, and the common areas. And if you have a keen eye for detail, then please help us maintain a tidy and organized environment, ensuring our guests have the best experience ever!

Rules

Don't panic we won't overload you with rules!
The biggest rule is just being respectful!!
Remember, you'll be another member of the incredible team and the guests will be looking at you as an example!
So don't go bringing outsiders into your room or into hostel private common areas please!
And no jumping behind the bar to make drinks or running reception - health and safety first! and be on timeeee !!!
We love a wonderfully fun but sensible worldpacker!
And remember ‘Questa casa non è un albergo!’
