Such an incredible experience volunteering at the hostel! Unkas is so kind and generous. The work is straightforward, mainly consisting of checking people in, preparing beds and bar work at night. Unkas is very fair and if you put in the work for him and keep yourself busy during your allocated shift time, you will have plenty of time to explore Sarajevo or take days trips near by on your time off. The hostel is so much fun and very social so was able to make so many friends during my 2 week stay!

The tasks and the working times were well communicated and you get used to it after a few days. the hostel & the hostel felt like home for me for the last month and I highly recommend to stay there. Barbecue and free beer helped as well 😉

If you were thinking of embarking on this adventure, stop and apply now because I assure you that you are going to have a great experience. Faris is an incredible person, whatever you need, you will be able to count on him; he is super friendly, and he gives you the confidence so that you can tell him what you want and feel comfortable. Tasks are distributed equally, with everyone’s consent, and if you need to make any changes, it’s all a matter of talking about it. Being there is really like being at home. And everyone who comes is welcome. Thanks to all the team again, they are amazing:)

I feel grateful for having chosen the hostel & the hostel as my first volunteering experience, Faris is very kind, always willing to help you with whatever you need and make you feel comfortable and happy. Communication is clear, the workload is not heavy at all and you will have plenty of time to enjoy the city or go biking around the park nearby, Nina and the other volunteers were lovely also, I’m going to miss them all!
