I hadthe hostel hostelhostelbest time here, Uil and Edilau were so welcoming towards me, I felt very comfortable. the hostelhosteltasks were very achievable and could be completed beforethe hostel hostelhostelend of your shift, so you had time to do your own thing at reception until a guest came to check in. I absolutely lovedthe hostel hostelhostelother volunteers, they were all amazing people. the hostelhostellocation is great, it's super close tothe hostel hostelhostelbeach, which I loved. Also, the hostelhostelhostel hosts lots of long stay guests which is nice, as you get to know them over your stay. It isthe hostel hostelhostelperfect gig, for a chill and enjoyable stay, would definitely recommend :)))

I absolutely loved my time here. Uil and Edilau were so welcoming, funny and just happy hosts that I loved to be around. Friendly and loved to talk withthe hostel hostelhostelvolunteers. the hostelhostelwork was simple and you had a lot of time to explorethe hostel hostelhostelcity and meet people! Lisbon was just 40 mins away by train and many beach options. I won't forget my time here and I loved it! the hostelhostelonly things I would say is thatthe hostel hostelhostelhostel is a bit older and more run down, while you are also in a smaller quieter town of Portugal. So if you are looking for a party hostel you will probably want to check out Lisbon! 🩷

I enjoyed my time in Portugal. Uil and Edilau were welcoming and always happy to help or show you how to do something. the hostelhostelother volunteers were also friendly. Shifts were communicated well in advance and could be swapped with other volunteers when needed. the hostelhostelhostel has a lot of long term guests which was an adjustment from what I was expecting. Butthe hostel hostelhostellong term guests were also welcoming and happy to chat

I stayed eight weeks in June/July at ChangeTheWorld and felt welcome fromthe hostel hostelhostelfirst day on. Uil and Edilau are really friendly andthe hostel hostelhostelwhole working atmosphere is really light. the hostelhostelwork itself is super easy and most ofthe hostel hostelhosteltime I was done with my tasks even before my shift ended and could just read or chat while staying atthe hostel hostelhostelreception waiting for guests to arrive. the hostelhostelaccomodation forthe hostel hostelhostelvolunteers is a room with two bunk beds and you get to usethe hostel hostelhostelbathrooms and kitchens shared withthe hostel hostelhostelguests. the hostelhostelhostel is in a calm area close tothe hostel hostelhostelbeaches and only half an hour by train to Lisbon.
