Looking for last minute help in April and May!!!
Hey you!
Want to spend a few weeks in a cute bohemian eco-hostel in the beautiful university city of Tartu? NOW IS THE TIME!
Crab the change to visit Tartu with the first signs of spring - icicles melting, grass and snowdrop flowers peeking out, bright blue sky and shining sun!
Our small hostel is located a 20 minute walk away from the old town and city center, close by are the train station, Widget Factory (Aparaaditehas) and ever so romantic Toome hill.
Our Eco-hostel is run by NGO, non-profit organization. All revenue goes to maintain the hostel and support our different eco-projects that are in progress. We have existed in Tartu for around 10 years. Our hostel family currently has 7 members - 4 receptionists, 1 manager and Sigrit and Helgur - the founders of the hostel.
We are focused on green living and re/up-cycling and want to show our guests, volunteers and also people in town how small changes in everyday habits are easy but can make a difference. Besides that we value creativity - we are always a work in progress. Our aim is to host people who love traveling and socializing but want to keep their ecological footprint small. Raising awareness of environmental issues and inspiring travelers to be more environment-conscious are our main goals.
In our work we implement the following environmental principles:
-Most of our furniture is from second hand shops, reused or made from recycled materials, same goes for bed linens.
-We use resources effectively and economically.
-We prefer natural and environmentally friendly materials.
-All cleansers we use have eco or nature-friendly label or we use vinegar solution.
-We produce as little trash as we can. We sort the generated waste into household waste, packaging, paper and cardboard, bottles and biowaste.
-We train our employees to be environmentally conscious and let them apply their knowledge on a daily basis.
-We also encourage our guests to act responsibly towards the environment and share their knowledge with us and other guests.

Oportunidades de intercâmbio cultural e aprendizado
We are constantly changing and the hostel looks like the people who are working here, so everyone can have their say in its progress. All our workers and volunteers can try different tasks to improve themselves and/or to learn new things.
Volunteers can learn and experience the green lifestyle in a hostel environment. But can also teach us!
Our aim is to work as a family or group of friends - support each other on more difficult days and share the joys of all the fun times. We also try to do things together outside of the working hours with both the staff and volunteers - this helps to keep a good balance between being co-workers and friends, but also helps to get the most out of the short time a volunteer spends in the place.
Besides that: Tartu is a small historic university town that has a relaxed and youthful vibe. It is the second biggest town in Estonia. Tartu is surrounded by nature - forest and farmlands. The transportation to and from Tartu is great, so it's possible to visit other towns and valuable natural areas. So whatever interests you have, you can find it here in the town or around it.
Ajuda
In our everyday activity we need help with cleaning and preparing the rooms but it is as important as chatting with the guests and making them feel welcomed here. Everyday tasks in the hostel can be quite repetitive, so you'll have to find ways to keep it interesting for yourself!
Everything in the place is in constant change - we are rebuilding and rearranging things all the time, so sometimes we need help with building things, painting, gardening, redesigning, sewing and so on. All great and crazy ideas how to improve the hostel are always welcome!
We can share Eco-lifestyle ideas with each other and are always as keen as learning from others as inspiring!
We also need help with our website or if you have creative ideas, and like to write things, you could help us out in making posts to social media and organizing events - we have had concerts on the rooftop, movie nights with the staff and different workshops once in a while. But it is best if you are social and active yourself.
If you consider applying to come and join our team please answer these questions for us (if you are surprised by some of them, then those are just for spam-check because we get a lot of spam request but we prefer volunteers who really like to come to join us and not just any place ):
What color are your eyes? :D
What do you think one day in the hostel as a volunteer looks like?
What are your best skills?
What is that one thing you absolutely don't like to do?
When would you like to join us and for how long would you like to stay with us?
Where are you traveling now and where are you planning to go next?
How "green" you consider yourself to be?
Please take into account that we expect our volunteers to respect the established working hours; follow instructions and work to be better every day; keep an open mind to all types of situations and go through them with a healthy sense of humor and last but definitely not least keep in mind that the people of the hostel have taken into account the dates provided to them to fill their volunteer schedule and understand that the volunteering spot could have belonged to another person.
The best length of stay is 3-5 weeks. Less won't give you a full of experience of our place and Tartu. Longer stays are possible, but then we have a small trial-period to see if we fit each other for a long period.

Acomodação
Shared dormitory rooms - if possible then the smaller room, that is shared with other volunteers. If that is not possible then a more private corner in the bigger dorm room.
Algo mais...
Volunteers can wander around Tartu, visit lovely woodenhouse areas, relax on the riverside, go to the beach and swim, visit museums or science center, bars and cafes. Or take a train or bus and explore the surrounding nature areas: big lakes like Peipsi, Võrtsjärv or Saadjärv; forest trails, small villages or other towns near by. There are cool hiking places around and we recommend going to bogs to get the real Estonian nature experience.

Thank you so so much! This hostel was such a delightful experience!
The workers are the absolute sweetest, and I hope to come back again to see them.
The working days were simple enough for anyone to do, they had a great workflow process!
I still reminisce my stay here.

It's been some time ago now that I was here, but I still wanted to leave some feedback now that I got back home after my long travel!
This hostel was such a lovely and cozy space, and the people that worked there really made me feel at home. It was nothing less than a family! I went out with them to a theater play, to a sauna, and to a film… read more

Feito pelo anfitrião para o Workawayer (Paula)
Paula is an excellent addition to a team. She is always positive, a quick learner and willing to help all the time. She is young but already very disciplined. Paula communicated well with the guests and was keen on exploring the nature in Estonia. She is very friendly and you should definitely consider taking her as a volunteer!

Feito pelo anfitrião para o Workawayer (Rebeka)
Rebeka is very hard working and knows how to manage time nicely. She is willing to help out with anything and up for creative projects. She helped us out both with cleaning and reception work and was up for the challenge. She eats very healthily and therefore encourages others to do that as well! :D If you're looking for a person who is positive… read more

I spent a month and a half at this place and it was a great experience. Everyone working there is super nice, easy-going and fun :D Work was easy, 4 hours a day and then 2 days off, so you have plenty of free time and you can use a bike to get around. Tartu is a really nice city with a lot of things to do.

I stayed for two weeks in the hostel. Its a very cozy place, they pay a lot of attention to details. The work was easy going thanks to the good working atmosphere and the cheerfull "retro radio". You will have enough time to explore tartu and the surroundings. Tartu is a very cute, green city. Just ask one of the girls, they can always tell you… read more

Feito pelo anfitrião para o Workawayer (Vinicius)
Vini is very social and talkative. He communicated well with the guests of our hostel and made them feel welcome here. In addition to finishing all the necessary tasks every day, he made the hostel feel lively by playing his guitar after his working hours. Vini was a great addition to our team and we would recommend accepting him as a volunteer.

Feito pelo anfitrião para o Workawayer (Tiphaine)
It was great to have her working with us. She is responsible, attentive and enthusiastic. She became one of us very quickly and after few weeks it was sad to say goodbye. If you have a change to host her then definitely do it. And Tiphaine if you would like to come back you know you are always more than welcome.

Quiet, dutiful, with a passion for food and cooking; when you give him a task he will do it with dedication and punctuality. At first hard to get to know but finally he opens up more. A nice companion in every duty, gives always his best , sometimes needs little supervision.

A lovely hostel in a lovely town!
I was here for a month and a half, backpacking after other plans had fallen through and finding this listing was a real lifesaver. Tartu is a beautifully safe and peaceful place. Elementary school kids will ride the bus to the many malls alone or play on the basketball courts at the university. There are lots of… read more

Victor is really friendly, talkative and easy-going. He stayed here for a month. During the stay he helped us with regular hostel jobs: making beds, cleaning rooms and common areas. Because of his age, he doesn't have much work experience. That's why the host should provide him supervision and additional help. Working together with other… read more

Volunteering here was an amazing experience only hard to forget. The staff is lovely, when you share a long time with them you will feel like in a new family. I had to be disciplined but it was more than worth at the end cause I feel much more prepared for any task in the future. If you come to Tartu you will feel the student atmosphere and be… read more

One of the best Workaways I've had. Thank you so much to this hostel for my time in Tartu. At first glance Tartu might seem like a small cosy student town with not a whole lot going on, but once you stay a little longer you discover there's a lot more to love about the place. Helga and Secrete had complete trust in me and gave me the freedom to… read more

It was one of my best experiences in Estonia. People here are super cool. Everyone is open-minded and nice to work with! I got the chance to learn more about ecological living, and hopefully I would be able to spread the words too. I would like to come back to visit in the future!
