It was my first Workaway experience and it was amazing. The other workawayers were very cool and you get to know so many different people. You have a lot of free time and you can always change shifts if you need one specific day off.
The work is not very complicated, but you have to be always focused and sometimes to keep a clear head.

Such a great experience!
We stayed for 1 month and it was one of the best experience in our life.
We made lots of friends, both with volunteers and guests.
The work is actually easy, but you really need to be responsible and take it seriously (just like any other job i guess🦖)
We also had the opportunity to go to other places in Bugaria like The… read more

I stayed for 3 weeks and I had a wonderful experience. The atmosphere of the hostel was super multicultural and fun. We were around 12 volunteers and we also met many cool guests every week!
Plus, the job is enjoyable and the schedule is flexible. I would definitely recommend this Workaway experience :)

Estuvimos 3 semana trabajando aquí y ha sido una experiencia positiva. La vida en Bulgaria es muy barata, en el hostel había muy buen ambiente y teníamos cierta flexibilidad de horarios lo que nos permitió visitar el país

Feito pelo anfitrião para o Workawayer (Nikola)
We loved having Niko in the hostel. He is sociable and fun, some of our long-staying and returning guests still keep asking about him :) At the same time, he takes his responsibilities seriously and knows how to handle difficult situations. Niko was always polite to guests and respected hostel rules.
We would love to have him back any time :)
