Description
About the Project
The Abraham Hostel is best known for its initiatives in recycling and waste management, organic gardening and composting, and interaction with the surrounding communities. The hostel aims to provide a unique eco-friendly travel experience for backpackers. Abraham was one of the Jewish forefathers, best known for his hospitality to strangers in the desert. The Abraham Hostel aims to pass on this legacy of hospitality. Participating in the Abraham Hostel's internships is a great way to experience Israel while getting hands on hospitality and marketing experience.
Internship Work and Contribution
As an intern you will assist the Abraham's Tour Manager in maintaining and developing various tours and activities for independent travelers in Israel and the region, while communicating frequently with travelers. You will also assist marketing efforts by scripting marketing materials, generating quality photos and videos of various tours and activities currently offered; and prepare them for use on the website, social media, and printed materials.
Interns will further develop their skills while learning and growing in this unique eco-friendly environment; they will not only gain an insight into the tourism and hospitality industry but also have an invaluable experience in discovering Israel. There is some contribution to the general maintenance and running of the hostel, however interns are encouraged to take the initiative to create new ideas that could be implemented into the hostel environment. Volunteers are required to work 5 days a week, 6 hours a day, however the schedule can be flexible
