We want your time at Achalay to be much more than a volunteer experience. You will live with travelers from all over the world, share experiences, and be part of a community where we strive for everyone to feel at home.
We believe in an exchange where everyone wins: you help us with the hostel and we want you to have time to get to know Bariloche, enjoy nature, make friends and experience Patagonia from the inside.
You arrive as a volunteer, but we want you to leave feeling like part of the Achalay family :)
4 days volunteering + 3 days off to discover Patagonia 🏔️
Your main task will be at reception: welcoming guests, check-in/check-out, providing information, collaborating on activities, and being part of the hostel's daily life.
As we are all part of the team, the role also includes cleaning, tidying, and housekeeping tasks when needed.
In addition, we want you to enjoy Bariloche: you will have the opportunity to access some activities and tours free of charge.
At Achalay we believe more in common sense, respect and good communication than in a long list of rules.
We look for responsible, proactive, sociable people with a desire to share. Living in a hostel means coexisting, taking care of shared spaces, collaborating with the team, and bringing good energy.
We have some basic rules for living together, but we are flexible and want you to feel Achalay as your home during your stay.
If you come with the desire to help, meet people, share and experience something different, we are waiting for you :)
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 :)
