Pura Vida

Pura Vida is a greeting of good energy. Just like the expressions: tudo bem, aloha, carpe diem, and tamu junto, the expression Pura Vida conveys a sense of well-being, happiness, and enjoyment! All of this is the style of Pura Vida Hostel.

I liked how the course started without assuming previous knowledge of hosteling. While I have stayed at hostels before as a guest, I appreciate learning the perspective of a staff and the dual role of a world packer volunteer at a hostel. The course is short and sweet!
