Description
My name is Nok, when I started my first hostel 2016 nobody of my friends believe me this would works, because in Laos the private room is already cheap. Why they would stay in the sharing room? And I always traveling around how come to would that work? Would I stop traveling because I would start business., I start I’ll make it work with my believes and stubborn head ( I have business blood so I am not a scared all of my family are business people lol ) anyway it work work out so fine. It was busy and fully booked everyday. I met so many amazing people and also volunteers from work away all over the world it’s fun!!! 2023 I opened a new hostel which is a little bigger. It’s very nice place :) there is a rooftop then you can see a very beautiful view and many more traveler meet up and have fun :) there more opportunity for Volunteer to help.
The city its self its pretty small but its nice here. There is temple around and waterfall which is 36 km too far away and its about 50 km from the Golden triangle. which you can see Laos. Thailand and Myanmar from the view point.

Help
our old hostel- small 8 beds the new one is bigger. required from the volunteer would be personality POSITIVE, HAPPY and RESPONSIBLE. Open minded to learn and helping around with reception who are good with people and who can easy learn and pass the information to the guests.I would prefer its better if the person who are keen to learn and to help and self thinking and if you have any other skill like accountants, graphic design, specific skill that can teach us. Then we will be happy to have you :). We would also prefer to if the volunteer would have the age between 28-50 years old.
