    Description

    Welcome to our hostel! I’m Elias, I started this project in 2018 and am now seeing it come to life a shwai shwai (a little by little) after covid. me and my mom are running this space, and we want to open our common space of the hostel to our community-the cafe will allow people to come together to meet, engage in projects to improve this beautiful city exchange ideas, and socialize with one another.

    we will offer all meals to the volunteers who help as the project is still in its early stages, and we want volunteers who will come to bring their skills to Palestine and contribute to the growth of this cultural hub in the middle of this historical city.

    The hostel is in the center of Bethlehem, on the historical Star Street which is a UNESCO world heritage site, and which has been used by pilgrims on their way to the Church of Nativity. immerse yourselves in local culture.

    We are excited to meet you!
