Program Details
Hello travelers!
We are looking for volunteers who can contribute; we are a couple from Rio de Janeiro who moved to Maceió and opened a hostel, us and our 3 pets.
Our hostel is a family-friendly environment with a lot of good energy; we like our guests to feel at home, in fact it reminds us of grandma's house, because we are very welcoming.
✔️What do we expect?
Someone we don't need to boss around, who knows what to do and, above all, has initiative, e.g.: see the dirty trash bin and pick it up, see the bathroom wet and dry it; here the service is easy, the hostel is new; we opened in May 2026.
✔️What do we offer?
One bed in the shared room, full bed linens, bath towel, Wi‑Fi and air conditioning.
Our shared kitchen is complete; we do not serve breakfast, but everyone has access to coffee powder and sugar to make it; it's a courtesy to guests the coffee.
✔️Will be 5 hours per day worked and 2 days off per week.
✔️3 mornings from 7 to 12 hours
✔️1 afternoon 13 to 18 hours
✔️1 night 18 to 23 hours
✔️Days off on Tuesdays and the other day to be arranged.
✔️We really like social media, so a volunteer filmmaker is very welcome.
We eagerly await our next Volunteer, with lots of stories to tell, good vibes and tips on what to do in Maceió.
