My experience at the hostel was wonderful. This was my first volunteer experience and I loved it, Steven from the beginning was kind and very flexible, I was able to complete my volunteer hours while also staying on top of my remote work, the area is very safe and pleasant, the weather is ideal. My tasks were to look after the dogs and the cat, help with organizing and cleaning and create a pleasant environment for guests. Thanks also to Gabriel, the person in charge, who made my stay even more pleasant and fun☀️ I left with the heart full of peace, and good energy ❤️

Mi experiencia ha sido muy genial en the hostel, he hecho una linda amistad con Steven, he ayudado en la cocina y he aprendido un montón, también ayudé con el marketing de las redes sociales y con los textos de la web, todas las personas son muy atentas, cumplen con todo lo que dicen y hasta más, me dieron desayuno, almuerzo, las toallas, dejaron que use el lavaropas y la secadora. de verdad súper recomendado

Las personas que están trabajando en la mañana parece que no saben lo que es una persona voluntaria la única persona que me dió las indicaciones correspondientes fue Sara quien me envió un mail con las tareas de los voluntarios a pesar de esto la experencia fue incomoda habia un chico que limpiaba que solo hacía énfasis de recoger las heces se dirigia a mi solo para gritar esto delante de todos,las tareas están cubiertas xq ya le pagan a él para esto. No es verdad que ofrecen desayuno, desde el primer día después de aceptar la estadía arrendaron la habitación y su prioridad era siempre $$$

The hostel is an amazing place to be at. Venezuela as a whole has been an incredible and enriching experience, I have felt safe but more than anything I have felt welcome and like I belong. At the hostel I have felt like they value not only me, but everyone who works there, and all guests as well, the sense of camaraderie I saw there I had never seen before and to say it feels like being with family is an understatement. Anyone would be extremely lucky to be a part of it and it's certainly an excellent chance to meet travelers and learn more about Venezuelan culture!
