Amazing hostel to volunteer, I was at the bar for 15 days making pisco sour and other cocktails. The tasks asked are easy and enjoyable, thanks Manuel and Erick for making that experience pleasant and fun!!

I had a great time at the hostel! It's a really great hostel, with some fantastic staff members. There are events run every night, so lots of opportunities to meet new people, and Arequipa is a beautiful city. The location is great, only a short walk to anywhere in the historic centre. Would definitely recommend a volunteer position here!

My volunteering experience at the hostel was my first—and likely my best. Manuel and Erick are incredibly nice, laid-back, and funny hosts; it's a pleasure to work with them, and just as much fun to simply hang out with them. I always felt comfortable and welcome. The staff—such as Luis—are also super nice and cool people. I highly recommend this hostel for anyone looking to volunteer. And if you're looking to learn some Spanish, it's a great place to do just that. 10/10—the next time I'm in Arequipa, I know exactly where I'm heading.

I had an amazing time volunteering at the hostel! As my first volunteering experience, it couldn't have been a better start. The hostel has a great location, a beautiful house, and a super social atmosphere with fun daily activities. The staff welcomed me warmly, and my work was always appreciated. Erick and Manuel were especially kind — we shared great moments, and their support (including Spanish lessons!) helped me a lot. the hostel is definitely a place I'll look back on with a smile😁 and hopefully come back to one day. I can fully recommend this place to any future volunteer!
