UT Hostel

We are an adventure/ backpackers hostel In San Carlos de Bariloche, Argentina. There are a total of 7 rooms, with beds, kitchen, pool and place for barbeques. We are looking for people that would like to exchange help for accommodation, etc.. with maintenance, reception and general hostel chores.. Bariloche is a great place with access to the mountains, snowboarding, etc.., we could discuss what a fair exchange that leaves plenty of free time to enjoy and experience the area.

Please don't contact us more than a few days in advance. I have had far too many workawayer not show up, and give priority to those who are already in, or coming to bariloche anyways, as volunteering should be an enjoyable experience and moving on should be an easy option if it doesnt work out.That's why I like to meet and try it on with myself and the crew for 2 day period before confirming. Most helpers stay for a 2- 3 week min..

Please do not contact us more than a few days in advance. I have had far too many Workawayers who did not show up, and I give priority to those who are already here or who are anyway going to come to Bariloche, as volunteering should be a positive experience and moving on should be an easy option if it doesn't work out. That's why I like to meet and try it out with myself and the crew for a 2-day period before confirming. Most helpers stay for a minimum of 2 to 3 weeks.

In our candidate evaluation, we do not give relevance to experiences such as 'community manager', 'content creator' or other similar terms. We consider that handling social media and the ability to use the camera on a phone to post on Instagram are basic skills and do not provide a significant differentiating value.

Instead, we focus on assessing the most relevant and meaningful skills and experiences for the position being offered, such as relevant volunteering experience, social disposition, attitude and humor, specific technical skills and personal and supportive achievements.

We appreciate your understanding in this sense and look forward to applications that highlight the most relevant skills and experiences for the position

UT Hostel was a very enjoyable experience! Ruben is a fun and relaxed host, all the volunteers are great people, Linda, Lucas, Ignácio and the others help us and answer our questions, the work is simple, the guests are from all over the world and are absolutely lovely, which gave the days here a light and cheerful vibe. I practiced Spanish a lot, the breakfast is well served and the same for volunteers and guests, it has a great location, making it possible to do several urban and nature excursions. I will miss Fox and everyone, we hope to come back someday! :)

It was a great experience!
All the people at the hostel, both the volunteers and the guests, are very fun and enjoy talking.
We met people that we will carry in our hearts for life.
We really like it here!
The tasks are simple and everything works in a very practical way.
There is always someone nearby to help or answer our questions, like Linda and Lucas.
The host, Ruben, is super nice, very good-humored and understanding.
The environment is very comfortable and clean, and there’s Foxy, a beautiful, chubby, and very loving little dog!
And it has a great location.

I really enjoyed volunteering at Ruben's hostel! All the guys there are very friendly and kind. Many shifts were very quiet and not too much work.

My first volunteering experience and it couldn't have been better; I'm leaving Universal Travellers with new friends and a place I will always want to return to. Ruben, the host, is a genius; besides being responsible with the work scheduled among volunteers, he makes the atmosphere super pleasant and fun with his good vibe, always inviting to socialize and experience new things in Bariloche. My teammates made this experience unforgettable, with many anecdotes to tell. Thanks for being my home these weeks, more than recommended and hopefully the UT family keeps growing 🫂🤍
