  Descrição

  I am Asiri,
  
  I run a small hostel in Negombo.
  Together with my two staff members we make sure everything is clean and the guests are happy.
  
  Many guests come to my hostel and plan to stay for one or two nights, but end up staying longer because of the relaxed feeling here.
  
  The hostel is close to the the beach, where we can see and have beautiful sunsets.
  We play sunset beach volleball and, when the ocean let us, we do sea swimming and bodysurfing.
  
  The hostel is getting busier, so i am looking for a volunteer to help around the hostel and be a social host.
  
  If you like to stay near the beach, meet people from all over, and help a small hostel grow, let's get get in touch
  
  Looking forward to meeting you,
  Asiri

  Help us at our Hostel in Sri Lanka 🌴
  
  I am looking for a volunteer and social host in the hostel.
  
  The things you might do as a volunteer:
  - Be a social host to the guests.
  - Welcoming guests and helping with check-in and check-out.
  - Giving travel tips or just talking to the guests.
  - Helping in the morning and make sure everyone is happy.
  - Light cleaning to keep the hostel nice and tidy.
  - Keeping an eye on the rooms and common areas, so everything looks clean.
  - Answering emails of WhatsApp messages.
  - Simple administrative help, nothing difficult, i'll show you how.
  - Help or give ideas to setup a weekly social plan for our guests to enjoy the evenings in Negombo.
  - Some art or paintwork.
  - Organise game nights.
  
  We usually share the work between the staff and help each other out.
  
  Some days you will do more cleaning and other days it’s just spending time with the guests.
  
  You will be available for volunteer work for 5 hours per day for 5 days a week.
  With a minimum stay of 3 weeks.
  
  In the time you stay at my hostel, you get to learn how running a hostel works (if you are interested).
  And ofcourse you will enjoy the sunsets, the food, and the local life.
  
  My place is a relaxed and positive place, so if you’re friendly, responsible, and enjoy meeting new people, you’ll fit right in .
  
  After the guests have gotten their breakfast, we provide a local breakfast for our staff and volunteers too.
  
  And meals are shared
  If you want to learn how to cook Sri Lankan food we can teach you.
  
  We mostly eat toghether and share the meals.
  
  We have a fully equipped kitchen that is only available for staff (and volunteer) use.
  You can bring your own ingredients and cook at any time, the kitchen is yours when you need it.
  
  Looking forward to meeting you,
  Asiri
  
  Ps. If you are able to teach yoga as the volunteer, i would like to set up a yoga class a couple of times a week. We can discuss this later.
