I am very thankful to Renata and her team at the hostel-hostel for a great volunteering experience...I felt very welcome = like at home there...everyone was really helpful and supportive... I totally appreciate the trust, what I got from Renata = owner of the hostel - even with my very basic Portuguese... I had a great time (which includes comfortable accommodation, good breakfast and amazing complimentary sunset-trip, ) and I learnt a lot there...if your are looking for the unforgettable positive volunteering experience, the hostel - hostel is the right place, where you get it:-)

The hostel is the place to breathe, the environment is calm and the crowd is more family. My stay was great, Renata is an amazing person, we had many conversations, she respected all the schedules and was always available. João Pessoa has many places to be explored, there is a lot of local culture.

It's the third time I return to the hostel, and there's something special about this place. ❤️ The host, who has already become a friend, the super fair exchange, the wonderful facilities, and, above all, the friendships I have built here make all the difference. It's that kind of place that goes far beyond a stay: you arrive as a guest and end up taking stories, connections, and good friendships. I wholeheartedly recommend it to the whole community!

My experience as a volunteer at the hostel was simply incredible! ❤️ It was days full of learning, exchanging experiences, resilience, and a true cultural immersion. I had the opportunity to get to know João Pessoa better, its local culture and special people who made this journey unforgettable. Renata, my host, was wonderful and made all the difference in this experience. I also want to thank Selma, Najib, the other volunteers, guests and everyone who shared moments, stories and friendships along the way. I will carry memories with me...

My first volunteering experience could not have been better. Manaíra Hostel became my home in no time and taught me lessons I will carry with me for life. Quiet tasks, an excellent breakfast and a very welcoming team. Special thanks to the host Renata, who always made herself available to help the volunteers and to make the stay as pleasant as possible. ❤️
