Vom Host für Workawayer (Simona)
Simona was wonderful to work with. Her happy vibe and willingness to help guests throughout all the activities were such a great example of someone who really enjoys what they do. We were all super impressed with her cooking skills too! :)

The job experience was beautiful and entertaining!
I stayed for a little bit more than a month cooking for groups and taking people to night and daily tours getting to know Barcelona's food, culture and amazing people!
I warmly reccomend it, as well for the kindness and good listener John was. ✨

What an experience! The friends, memories, and moments I made here will be treasured forever. John is an amazing and kind host and made this workaway the best I've ever done.

I've been lucky to have Lorenzo on the team for the past few months, and he's been awesome. His energy is contagious, and he brings a real positive vibe to the hostel every day.

I highly recommend this volunteer both because Barcelona is a wonderful city and for the experience itself. I would do it again a thousand times!Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.

THIS WAS AN INCREDIBLE EXPERIENCE!! Was my first workaway, I stayed for 2.5 months, and honestly met some of the most amazing people, and made lifelong friends.

Volunteering for John has been truly a great experience!

Vom Workawayer (Philippe) für Host
This was my first workaway, and I couldn't have asked for a better experience!
John is a kind and generous boss, and also became a mentor and a friend throughout the course of shared lunches, hikes and million recommendations from him of ways to explore Barcelona!
The work itself was enjoyable - though it should be mentioned that the more

The work involves a lot of talking to and taking care of large groups, and a lot of going out - if that doesn't sound like something you would enjoy, then don't apply! Personally, I found the work fun, and it left me a lot of time to explore the city and its surroundings during the daytime.
There was only one (slight) negative about my experience - although all the hostel staff and volunteers are lovely (and many became my close friends over the course of the workaway), the hostel staff room, where workawayers stay, is small, and the wifi connection is intermittent. However, I didn't find that this impacted my experience too much, as I always spent my days out in the city.
Overall, I would really recommend this workaway!Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.
Vom Workawayer (Janluca) für Host
First of all I would like starting on saying that this was my first work away and it was unbelievable. I would like to describe this experience dividing it in 3 parts, the accommodation, the job and one for John the host.
the accommodation was grate, exactly what I was expecting, I lived in a hostel with other volunteers from all over the world.
… read more The environment there felt really cozy, especially because of the people.
The job was a bit challenging for me at the beginning, I had to guide all the guests to make dinner all together and than go for a pubcrawl in the wonderful Barcelona. however, in a couple of weeks I had already learn how to do it, and it turned out easier that it seemed. The important part is that it gives you the opportunity to meet all the guests, people from allover the world, and have so much fun with them. I grew a lot by doing this Job, i improved my public speaking, my interpersonal skills, management skills and learn so much about other culture. For me it was a blessing.
As it was meeting and working with John ( the host ), he is the most amazing person, he helped me every time that I had troubles with the job, he was really understanding and most of all it was and he still is a very good friend.
I really recommend this workaway to everyone!Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.

Antonia was a great workawayer, she volunteered initially for 6 weeks, then even returned for a further stay.

This was my first Workaway experience ever, and honestly it was probably one of the best times I've had! The work itself was fun and easy, allowed me to meet so many amazing people who quickly became good friends, and discover some cool places in Barcelona.

Vom Workawayer (Jack) für Host
I could not have asked for a better workaway experience. John is not only the best host I've had the pleasure of working with but also now a great friend.

I fell in love with Barcelona during my time there which was hugely influenced by the amazing experiences I had working with the hostel. The work involved provides an incredibly fun and exciting way to get to know the best parts of the city. I always looked forward to starting my shifts and always felt assured that I could go to John with any questions I may have. I feel incredibly lucky to have gotten the chance to work with John and get to know him and his friends, and I cannot wait to return!
I would recommend this workaway to anyone, especially if you love to meet new people, try new things, and have a laugh. This has been one of the best few months I've had in years!Du kannst nur Workawayer mit aktiver Mitgliedschaft kontaktieren.
Vom Host für Workawayer (Jack)
Jack was a great fit for the role and overall a class guy. He has had such a positive influence on so many people's experiences in the hostel and will be a friend for life. He was always attentive to the little details that are super important for us to stand out from the crowd in the hostel industry. It's challenging to maintain the level of "Top
… read more Rated" hostels but Jack is always up to the challenge and best of all, it comes naturally to him ;-) We are sad to see you leave Jack but we wish you all the best on your next adventures and we'll see each other sooner rather than later :-)
If you're looking for a hard worker who knows how to combine professionalism with the right amount of fun, look no further.
Vom Workawayer (smileyAlex) für Host
I spent 1 1/2 months working in Barcelona there as a pubcrawl-leader, making dinner's with guests, playing beachvolleyball and partying!
Living in a hostel, hosting events & meeting loads of interesting people, that's how your life there will look. If you are living for new experiences, partying and being all the time social, this is exactly the
… read more workaway experience you should go for :)
However, this work is definitly not for everybody. You need to be VERY social and between work & catching some sleep, you will not have loads of time to discover the city. Additionally you need to be very self-organised.
My experience was okay/good, but not excellent because the hostel where i stayed and lived for this time, had/has some really big issues (lack of cleanliness, how they treat workawayers, lack of communication with the management...).
I hope this factors will improve in the future.
Thank you for this opportunity! I learned a lot of new things through this work-experience & my time in Barcelona.
