Volunteering here in Shkoder has honestly been a lovely experience. Dion and the rest of the team are some of the most openhearted people I have ever met, so warm and welcoming and always making you feel comfortable and at home. The work is super chill and easy to manage- things like ironing and making beds plus keeping the general hostel clean such as bathrooms. Its a very collaborative environment in which everyone helps eachother so it never feels overwhelming. The thing that makes this hostel so special is the atmosphere, it truly feels like a family environment :)

Sure! Here's the translation: --- My stay at the hostel was excellent! I felt at home with both Kristian and Dioniz, with whom communication flows very well. The work is simple, we have time to relax, suggest activities, explore the city, and connect with the local culture and guests. It felt like being among friends. I loved it! Being here definitely made my experience in Albania even better. Thank you, Dioniz and Kristian. ❤️

This was my first volunteer experience through Worldpackers, such a great experience. Dioniz & Christian are both amazing hostel owners, here at the hostel. ❤️ Dioniz has made me feel at home with his hospitality and humour “he he he”. They both always puts their volunteers first. My tasks included ironing sheets, making beds, mopping, and doing reception occasionally. All so easy to manage, with lots of help from other volunteers, Dioniz and Christian. My hours were very flexible starting at 10/11am till around 2/3pm, having heaps of breaks inbetween. Thank you! I will be back ☺️

I had a really great time at the hostel. Dion and Kristian are very nice and respectful. You can tell they truly care about the well-being's of the guests and volunteers. You will be working on and off throughout the day, but the tasks are very easy and they are really flexible with the hours. I would definitely recommend
