Program Details
We are just starting out in hospitality, and this is the first time we will host volunteers.
So we don't have much to say yet, because everything will be a new experience for us. 😊
Activities & Shift
The schedule is flexible, with no specific period defined. Activities can be carried out in the morning, in the afternoon, or in the evening, according to the demand and the needs of the guesthouse.
In the morning, the work may include helping with breakfast, cleaning the front and the entrance of the guesthouse, and after breakfast, clearing the dishes and leaving the hall organized and the kitchen.
The cleaning of the rooms is done after the guests check out, so that everything is clean, organized and ready to receive the next guests at check-in, which starts at 2 pm.
So this is normally the time when help is most needed.
We need help in the laundry, and cleaning the guesthouse in general.
It may also be necessary to help with small repairs and provide support at the reception when needed.
We are looking for responsible, organized people who are willing to collaborate in the day-to-day life of the guesthouse.
Rules
