The Experience

Preparing breakfast, caipirinhas, sandwiches & keeping the vibe up is what we need for people volunteering at this position. If you've worked with food before and you are a fast and smart person, congrats, you are almost part of the team. If not, still u can give it a try ;). U'll be working at our bar open for guests and locals, in Vila Madalena, SP's most bohemian zone. And hey, this might be the coolest job you will have, ever.

This was my first experience using the platform and I am really happy with my choice. Sarah and Tila were exceptional hosts, very welcoming and always ready to help me with anything I needed. The hostel is very well located, making it easy to explore the city and the experience was more than positive. I recommend it to anyone who wants to spend time in São Paulo.

I had an amazing time at the hostel! The hostel is gorgeous and very professional! The work is easy and your hours are fixed — so theres no confusion! Everyone working there is so lovely, and the hostel is always busy so theres plenty of guests to meet. My Portuguese also grew so much during my time here. I highly recommend, this has been my favourite experience so far.

The hostel was an unforgettable and amazing experience for me as a traveler and Worldpacker. I had the opportunity to meet amazing people, practice multiple languages, learn new skills, build very strong relationships with locals and foreigners. This is a special place in São Paulo and I will always recommend it to other travelers and volunteers. Clear tasks, good environment, clean, great location, great team and a lot of good memories. My greatest appreciation and gratefulness to all the team in the Bar and hostel staff, I will come back to visit and try the new pool! Love u mi Gente!

This was a great spot in São Paulo to meet international travellers and locals. I had a lot of fun working in the bar. The volunteers, management and other workers were great and friendly. The only negative I can think of was the room I had to sleep in, but when you are travelling/backpacking I don't think you can always expect much anyway. Thanks for having me the hostel it was great
