Very nice experience! Cainna the supervisor is very available and always there if you need anything. The tasks are manageable, and the three days off provide the perfect balance to explore the Algarve. The group of five volunteers was also really nice, with a great atmosphere ! I would definitely recommend this experience ;)

The experience was super nice, Cainna is very flexible and he helped us whenever we needed him. It is a great experience if you like to socialize and get to know more not just Faro but the Algarve. The work is not hard and it allows you plenty of free time to enjoy the stay. Muito obrigada

I had a fantastic month at the hostel. I met some really cool people from around the world and explored the Algarve on my days off. The cleaning was intense but we were able to get it all done during our shifts. Overall, this was a positive work exchange experience that I would recommend to someone willing to work hard to maintain the hostel but also explore Faro and other towns in the Algarve.
