Here you can constantly meet very interesting people from all around the world and focus on learning anything you are interested in.

We are located in a perfect area where you can walk to many historical places, beaches and old town, or easily take any kind of transportation to any attraction.
Help
More important than physical works in the hostel, we need someone with kindness and positive attitude towards other staff and guests. In general we need help with the reception and daily chores; cleaning, making beds and doing laundry, it's a very small hostel so daily chores finish quickly. We have 3 different shifts and they have slightly different duties and paces; we work with weekly schedules which are planned in a way that is fair for everyone's needs and abilities.
