  Beschreibung

  Welcome to a cozy hostel nestled on the Atlantic coast between Agadir and Essaouira, in the heart of the charming fishing village of Imsouane. Known for its fresh fish and its world-class waves, Imsouane attracts surfers from all around the world looking to enjoy the endless-summer vibe.
  
  It is managed by Houda, a local woman from the region, passionate about sharing the beauty of her culture, the warmth of Moroccan hospitality, and the authentic spirit of Imsouane. Here, we love meeting new people, exchanging stories, and creating unforgettable memories. Our goal is to make every guest feel at home and to offer a real and welcoming picture of our region.
  
  We offer different types of rooms to suit various budgets, including shared rooms and private double rooms.
  
  Our outdoor terrace is where magic happens every morning — breakfast served while watching the waves roll in. We also have a cozy wooden cabin where volunteers and guests like to relax, play cards, enjoy dinners, or watch movies together.
  
  Our locally employed staff includes:
  • Houda – Manager & Cook
  
  • Cleaning lady – daily
  
  It is all about community, good vibes, delicious food, and the simple joy of living by the ocean.

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  Cultural Sensitivity and Awareness
  Respect for Diversity: We are committed to promoting a culture of respect for all backgrounds, beliefs, and traditions. Our staff and volunteers help create an open-minded and non-judgmental space, ensuring that everyone feels valued and appreciated for who they are.
  Cultural Learning: We encourage guests to not only share their culture but also to take the time to learn about others. Whether it's through conversations, reading materials, or engaging in events, the opportunity to broaden one’s understanding of the world is ever-present.
  
  Language Exchange: With guests speaking a variety of languages, the hostel provides an ideal space for informal language exchange. You can practice new languages, share your own, and learn about different customs and traditions simply by socializing in the common areas.
  
  Shared Spaces and Social Interactions
  Common Areas for Connection: Our common spaces are designed to encourage social interaction and cross-cultural communication. From the cozy lounges to the community kitchen, guests and volunteers can share meals, stories, and experiences, helping to bridge cultural gaps and create lasting connections.
  Inclusive Atmosphere: We foster a respectful and inclusive environment where every guest feels comfortable sharing their background and learning from others. This mutual respect creates a positive atmosphere for cultural exchange and understanding.
  
  Global Connections and Networking
  Making Lifelong Friendships: Many of our guests leave with not just memories of their travels, but with friendships that span continents. The connections made here often lead to future travels, cultural exchanges, and lasting relationships.
  Building a Global Network: Whether you're a solo traveler, a digital nomad, or someone looking to immerse yourself in different cultures, the hostel provides a unique opportunity to expand your global network and gain a deeper appreciation for diverse perspectives.

  Arbeit

  We offer two main volunteer roles, each contributing to the smooth running of the hostel and ensuring a welcoming experience for our guests.
  
  We take volunteers individually, meaning each role is filled by one volunteer at a time. We generally do not accept pairs of volunteers for the same role, as this can complicate our schedule and organization.
  
  1. Social Media & Content Management
  Volunteers in this role help showcase the spirit of the House online. Tasks include:
  • Creating visual content, such as photos and short videos (reels, stories) highlighting the hostel, common areas, organized events, and activities.
  • Posting and managing content on our social media platforms (Instagram, Facebook, etc.), engaging with followers, and sharing updates about services or upcoming events.
  • Communicating with guests online and in person, responding to questions, and providing information about the hostel and local activities.
  
  2. Housekeeping & House Support
  Volunteers in this role assist with maintaining a welcoming and organized environment for our guests.
  Note that we already have a cleaning lady so the role focuses more on supporting household operations rather than full cleaning duties.

  Unterkunft

  As a volunteer, we provide a comfortable and supportive environment to make the most of your experience. In exchange for your time and contributions, you will enjoy the following benefits:
  
  1. Accommodation
  Bed in a Shared Dormitory: You will be provided with a bed in one of our shared dorm rooms, offering a social and friendly atmosphere. It’s a perfect way to meet fellow travelers and become part of the hostel’s international community.
  
  2. Meals
  Two Meals a Day: We offer two hearty and nutritious meals each day to our volunteers:
  Breakfast: Start your day with a filling breakfast that includes a variety of options like cereals, bread, fruits, spreads, and hot beverages.
  Dinner: After a day of work, enjoy a delicious dinner prepared to nourish you. We strive to offer meals that cater to various dietary needs and provide a great opportunity to bond with fellow volunteers and guests.
  
  3. Surf Gear
  Volunteers are welcome to use our surf equipment; however, this is strictly subject to availability, as guests always have priority. We kindly ask volunteers to check availability in advance before using any gear.
  Please note that surf lessons are not included in the volunteering exchange. If you wish to participate in a lesson, a separate payment to the coach will be required.
