During the program, you will experience something different from the traditional routine, being part of the day-to-day life of an eco hostel amid nature. In addition to learning about administration, team organization, reception, reservations, and marketing, you will have contact with people from different places and may discover new cultures, places, and ways of living. An opportunity to develop new skills, break from routine, and live experiences that go beyond work.
Activities and schedule
The volunteer workload is 4 hours per day, with flexible hours between morning and afternoon/evening shifts, and may extend up to midnight, according to the hostel's needs.
Activities may include reception and guest service, organization and coordination of volunteers, support with reservations, communication, marketing, and social media.
We are flexible mainly in the low season: if there is less movement at the reception, we expect the volunteer to take the initiative to help with other tasks needed in the hostel, always respecting the 4 hours per day agreed. We are looking for someone responsible, proactive and willing to collaborate with the team.

Many worldpackers have been applying to this position recently. The host will probably not be able to respond to all of the applications, so we recommend that you also apply to other hosts in our community and not just this one :)
