The Experience

Hi all, My name is Mantra and I have two hostels. My first baby, House of Lion Hostel and the one upcoming is House of Wolves. so House of Wolves came with a small cafe area that will work also as reception/lounge area . It will be such a wasted space if it will not be used. As I never been in Food industry, I dont even know where to start. I would love if someone wants to be a part of team and together experience how it is like

Mantra, the host is amazing! She's always there if you have a question, fun to hangout and takes you to cool places nearby! The hostels vibe is really nice and the tasks are not hard. I really enjoyed my time here and will definitely come back someday!

I had an amazing time felt too short in the hostel. Mantra is a wonderful host and friend, kind and really generous. I felt immediately welcomed and I got pretty along with the other volunteers. It has been an incredible experience I will keep with me forever. Highly recommend!

It was quite a valuable experience. I've never been to hostels before so I had to get used to surroundings but Mantra makes everybody feel welcomed. What's more, there are a lot of opportunities to socialise with international travelers as well as locals who can recommend which things to do on Langkawi.
