Svenja e Lauri sono stati la prima coppia di volontari nel nostro ostello. All'inizio non ero del tutto sicuro che avere una coppia fosse la scelta migliore, ma devo proprio ammettere che i ragazzi sono stati formidabili in ogni senso: hanno lavorato in maniera impeccabile, imparando velocemente e sempre con l'attitudine giusta.

I just can't describe how much we appreciated Sanzio's job here, 'cause he's always been perfect in everything: welcoming our guests, organizing his space and duties during the week and being super responsible and friendly at the same time.

We all loved Danny and actually it could only be that way. Since the beginning he showed a truly positive attitude about the job and his experience in Genova.
Daniel is a fast lerner and a responsible guy, despite his young age we always liked Danny's style, so calm and helpful with anybody.
He also speaks fluent italian which was great.

Calm, responsible, polite and very friendly. Héctor was an excellent helper and receptionist.
Our only complaint is that he chose to leave us after "only" one month... :)
