Program Details
Our proposal is simple: to create an environment where travelers from different cultures feel welcomed, make friends, and take away good stories.
As a volunteer, you will be part of the hostel's routine by supporting activities such as reception, breakfast preparation and organization, cleaning and organizing the common areas and rooms, as well as small day-to-day operational tasks. We value attitude, responsibility and a willingness to learn.
More than helping with tasks, we hope you will be a positive presence for the community. We look for people who enjoy living with other cultures, have initiative to solve problems, communicate clearly, and are willing to collaborate as a team. Punctuality, commitment to shifts, and care for shared spaces are fundamental.
Our environment is relaxed, diverse, and inclusive. We welcome people of different nationalities, ages, identities, and life stories. Therefore, mutual respect is indispensable.
If you are looking for a genuine cultural exchange experience, want to meet people from around the world, and contribute to a welcoming environment in the heart of São Paulo, we would be pleased to receive your application.
