Description
Hello there!

I'm Laura, a 29 year or German-Italian-Spanish mix living in Berlin, Germany. After having studied cultural science and philosophy my working career has been mostly consisting of working in tourism: as a hostel receptionist for 4 years and more recently as an office manager for a bike tour operator while also giving courses for elderly people on how to use a computer. On the side I'm also pursuing an online carreer in Fullstack Development (so I could already help with web development). I'm fluent in English, Spanish, German and Italian and speak some basic French.

In my free time I enjoy cultural events such as music and dance!

I'm an easy-going yet eager person with a lot of skills that could benefit hosts: besides language skills, knowledge of the tourism business, sociable / empathetic character I'm also a hobby gardener, photographer, dancer and musician. I have a logical mind which helps for working in a structured manner.

Looking forward to connecting with you,
Greetings from Berlin!

I volunteered for 2,5 weeks at the Hostel and had a great time! Work is veery easy, the hostel is gorgeous (pool, garden & hammocks, colonial architecture), the atmosphere is relaxed and the location excellent!

I spent two weeks volunteering here and had a very pleasant time. The work is veeeery easy and most of the time you basically only have to be present, occasionally doing a check-in or selling beer. As we were a couple of volunteers, some of us slept in one of the two hostels and in an apartment located between the two hostels (everything is super… read more
