Once she got accustomed to my routine, most of her duties were … read more

Especially the fact that you can see the sunrise at the beach and the sunset at the river, I loved it! Willie is a friendly and nice guy and always made sure that I … read more

For me this was the first workaway I did and I'm glad I came here. The communication with Lucky went really well and he was helpful to learn the tasks in the hostel. The hostel was very social and I felt never bored there. The social calendar is also a plus! Thanks a lot to Lucky and hope to visit the place once again!
