Amé El Popu <3 La gente de ahí es maravillosa y me recibieron con mucho amor. A mejorar el estado de la habitación y el baño, hay mucha humedad y no estaba en condiciones cuando llegué. Hay tareas que no estaban previamente acordadas y fueron pesadas, como el horario nocturno y tareas que requerían fuerza, levantar chatarra y abajo del rayo del sol. La comunicación con Seba fue prácticamente nula. Hice horas extra y me pagaron ✔️ (podía elegir no hacer horas extra) La comida y los cafés son exquisitos. Todo el staff son un amor. Pow es muy atenta y considerada. Gracias Popu!! Hasta pronto

Me lo pasé muy bien en el Popu. El trabajo era divertido y no difícil, la gente es muy amable y acogedora, y la comida es deliciosa. También está cerca de la playa y La Barra es muy linda para caminar alrededor. Voy a extrañar el Popu y atesoraré mis experiencias aquí.

Eu e meu marido ficamos uma semana no Popu. Fomos muito bem recebidos por toda a equipe do restaurante. As atividades consistiam em ajudar a manter o bar limpo e organizado e nos davam escalas de horários pré-definidos para cumprir.. vale ressaltar que a comida é divina 😊 outro ponto legal é que mesmo se o seu espanhol não seja o melhor, isso não impede de voluntariar ali!

Minha experiência no projeto foi muito boa, eu e minha esposa ficamos uma semana. As terefas e horários foram passadas com clareza e com antescedência. Tive a oportunidade de conhecer pessoas da Argentina, Paraguai e Chile e mesmo com os espanhol básico todos foram muito atenciosos comigo. Um diferencial do restaurante é que todos os voluntarios e os funcionarios do restaurante recebem as refeições do próprio cardápio e as refeições são maravillosas! Um único ponto que eu acredito que poderia melhorar é os colchões dos quartos..

Aunque nunca había tenido experiencia con este tipo de voluntariado antes, en un restaurante, esto no fue un problema ya que todos allí siempre estaban dispuestos a ayudarme, lo que hizo la experiencia maravillosa. No soy vegetariana ni vegana, pero aún así me gustó la mayoría de las comidas. Todo estuvo de acuerdo con la descripción del proyecto, salvo el detalle de que las clases de yoga requieren pago, pero si la persona desea hacer yoga por tu cuenta, puedes consultar con el anfitrión la posibilidad de utilizar la sala. Tuve una gran experiencia haciendo este voluntariado y la recomiendo.
