  1. Hello!
    We heard you have volunteers at your hostel working in exchange for accommodation, and we are very interested in hearing about a possible opportunity in July.
    About us: we are two women, Moana and Frederikke, aged 23 years old. We are currently studying in Sweden and Denmark and will be traveling a bit in the summer holidays. We have both worked in hostels before so we have experience in housekeeping, cleaning, helping other guests, etc.

    Hope to hear from you soon!

    Kind regards
    Moana and Frederikke
