Volunteer to help with construction and renovation projects as you travel.
Construction and renovation is an endless category, but it means that you’ll never be bored! Projects on Hovos can be anything from revamping a kitchen to building a barn or fencing. If you have basic construction skills or you’re willing to learn, there will be a project for you!
As a Hovos host, you can pick the right person from our many travelers. They have all created profiles with their information and available skills.
Just match the traveler with the right skills to the kind of construction help you seek, and you’ll have reliable assistance on hand.
No more having to do all the work yourself when you have a construction project and no more huge labor bills for minor jobs. Learn more about construction from the volunteer so that you can handle the task on your own next time around OR show a volunteer who is willing to learn exactly how you want the work done. Hovos lets you gain exposure to different construction styles from across the globe, just by giving you the freedom and flexibility to pick the volunteer of your choice.

For individuals with skills in construction (or those who want to learn more skills) and who want to travel, this is a golden opportunity. Hovos lets you put your existing skills and talents to good use, earning you food and accommodation in parts of the country where you don’t know anyone.
If you are looking to hone your construction skills, practice your craft and gain experience working under different conditions in different environments, what better way to do it than sign up as a Hovos Traveler?
Take your pick of construction projects, find a family that you think you will fit in with and get rich experience while your accommodation and food is all taken care of.
Remember that both hosts and volunteers have complete control over whether or not they accept a request.
A completely transparent, safe platform that brings hosts with specific needs and volunteers with matching skills together, Hovos is what you have been searching for.
Free sim card for new signups!
Instead of paying large sums for a room and for food as you travel, you stay with a host family in their own home, sharing their food. You also gain exposure to different people, cultures and traditions.

Traveler Membership: $10/Year This gives them full access to all hosts as well as a FREE Travel SIM. However, they can create an account for free so they can start ‘favoriting hosts’ and build their profile - but advanced features such as contacting hosts will be unavailable until they become members.
Host Membership: $0/Year It is free for hosts to sign up and they can begin contacting travelers immediately.
An additional advantage of being a member is that you become more trustworthy and therefore members will be shown first on the website. Members can build up more trust by verifying their mobile phone and passport as well.
