Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
1 - In the south coast of Albania, you will be able to experience the hospitable Albanian culture. Working in a restaurant, especially during summer season, allows you to interact with many people from the area and learn more about our culture.
2- You will be able to learn about the fresh local produce, as well as the Albanian and mediterranean cuisine.
You will also be able to go for fishing trips during sunrise/ sunset.
3 - Working in seasonal restaurant such as ours allowes you to interact with many people including tourists from many different countries. The number of tourists in Albania is growing daily, and to a certain extent, it is still an "intact" country to explore, especially where we are located.
4- You will be able to explore the the many different beaches (most of them still virgin), as well as the old villages of Himare and Qeparo, as well as the Castle of Porto Palermo in your time off.
Most importantly, we believe that you will make good friends and good memories here < 3Host offers payment in line with the minimum wage
