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!

It took me a few days to get into the groove and feel like I fit in, but once I did, I had a really great time! Unkas is very passionate about this hostel and will push you to do your best, but is very fair and kind once he knows he can count on you. I only wish I knew beforehand that I would sometimes have to sleep at an apartment that’s a 10 min walk away from the hostel, which was a little inconvenient. Keep that in mind. Other than that, I had a really great time here! Very social environment and plenty of free time to socialize and explore the city.

It was a mostly enjoyable experience. The host was quite short and a little rude at times. It was fun to interact with the employees, other volunteers and guests. The hours where more than the listed amount, and the accommodation was interesting, as we didn’t have a set bed so regularly had to move round and multiple times stay off site.
