I had a really good time at the hostel and great conversations with the employees and my co-volunteers. I loved La Paz and felt home. Breakfast and some food was provided. Work hours were organized. Just my last week was a bit confusing and more demanding due to staff shortages but I had a good talk about it in the end. On two occasions I had to welcome arriving guests at night/late evening but that doesn't usually happen. The dorm downstairs was a bit less comfy than the others IMO but I was able to switch dorms. Opportunity to do cool activities with the guests instead of the afternoon shift!

My time at the hostel was honestly amazing. The staff are some of the kindest, most welcoming people I've ever met — I felt like part of the team from day one. The place is a real meeting point for people from all over, so I got to connect with both locals and travelers with all kinds of stories and destinations. I'm super grateful for the experience, especially since I got to share it with another volunteer who's now a really good friend. The tasks were clear, and I loved being able to help out and use my skills to support the team. Thanks again and… see you soon!

I want express my gratitude for the enriching experiences I had during my stay. Interacting with guests and providing them with city tours allowed me to foster meaningful connections. The staff was incredibly supportive and kind. However, there are areas that need improvement: to put more attention when they select volunteers outside the apps,and the consideration given to the accommodation provided for volunteers. The lack of curtains for the volunteer beds was inconvenient, and being asked to leave when the hostel was full was not ideal. The tasks assigned were easy and respect times given.
