Hold your horses, stop the clocks, and lend me your ears! Today, we carve history, as we sketch a jubilant testimonial for our exchange member extraordinaire, who weaved a tapestry of ineffable joy and meticulous service at our humble abode of wanderers –Matt.

Let’s turn the spotlight towards the reception, where our indomitable hero, Matt,… read more painted a canvas of warm welcomes, infectious smiles, and a seamless check-in experience smoother than a dollop of butter melting on a hot, crispy toast. Every guest, with a luggage full of fatigue, was swiftly cloaked in comfort, with queries dissolved and spirits lifted in the twinkle of an eye, all thanks to the maestro at the desk.

A harbinger of cleanliness, Matt dawned upon housekeeping with the might and finesse of a white-gloved symphony conductor. With a whisk of a mop and a flick of a duster, each room transformed into a sanctuary of pristine tranquility and crystalline clarity, mirroring the sparkling exuberance and commitment our beloved volunteer embraced each dawn.

“But wait, there’s more!” exclaimed the twinkling stars and the shimmering moon, witnesses to the nocturnal tapestry of group activities led by none other than our prodigious exchange member. Night after night, Matt orchestrated an ensemble of laughter, adventure, and camaraderie. With an inexhaustible trove of games, stories, and icebreakers, each evening unfurled like a whimsical fairytale where strangers morphed into friends, and silence burst into symphonies of laughter and joy.

In the poetic lattice of Matt’s volunteering sonnet, wit and humor were the golden threads weaving through the tapestry. The air was invariably thick with mirth, with each joke, quip, and witty remark lighting up the atmosphere like fireworks embellishing the night sky. Even the walls of the hostel, if they could talk, would recount tales of merriment and echo the laughter shared under their vigilant watch.

As days turned into weeks, and weeks into fond memories, our exchange volunteer waltzed through responsibilities with unparalleled grace, leaving behind a trail of satisfied guests, immaculate rooms, and a bouquet of joyous moments. Every corner of the hostel whispered tales of Matt's indefatigable energy, unyielding dedication, and the magical ability to make every day a celebration of life and travel.

Today, as we bid adieu to this enigmatic whirlwind of positivity and talent, our hearts are swollen with gratitude, and our lips curved into smiles that mirror the radiant sun. For in the tapestry of our hostel’s saga, Matt has embroidered a chapter so vibrant, so delightful, that its echoes would resonate through the corridors for eons to come.

So, here’s raising a toast, a salute, a standing ovation to Matt, the dazzling star who illuminated our hostel with service, warmth, and unadulterated joy. May the roads ahead be as enchanting as the tales you’ve scripted with us, and may the winds of adventure steer you towards horizons as mesmerizing as the sparkle in your eyes.

With boundless appreciation and cheers loud enough to rival thunder,

Sean

This was my first workaway and therefore was nervous about it all but I felt right at home straight away here. The team especially the manager Sean were so helpful and welcoming. Within a few days I was comfortable and used to the system of how it works which is some housekeeping some reception and some activities all are a good blend to not feel… read more
