Program Details

Night shift does:
- welcomes late/early arrivals, check-in using the property management program
- cleaning the kitchen, running laundry and dishwasher
- other special maintenance tasks, organizing storage etc..
- taking care of guests in a lobby (if they need help or information)

The tasks for the night shift are those we can't do during the day as the space is constantly in use, and are designed so they can be done thoroughly and at own pace (especially cleaning and maintenance), as there's more then enough time throughout the night.

Schedule:
2 x night shifts a week, 8 hours is a shift ( 00-08)
The exact order is set for two weeks in advance, and it's flexible as your colleagues and you make it to be.

Comfort:
Most of the volunteers are accommodated in the spacious 8-bed volunteers-only room with bathroom, while some might sleep in shared dorms with guests. In case girls have to sleep in another room, it would be a female dorm.
In our hostel we have a room that volunteers can use (subject to availability) to do yoga classes, tattooing, massages etc. (we have a massage table)

Activities & Shift

2 x night shifts per week, the rest of the time is free.

There's always many volunteers and guests of various profiles, and we'll recommend you things to do.

Rules

We allow our night shift to sleep but ONLY if you are sure that you will be awake if needed (ring on the door, alarm on the phone etc)

There's a zone of the common area where guests can chill till late and talk or do whatever, so it is your responsibility to remind them about it if they are making any noise in other areas, it's a very simple rule to maintain.
