This was my first Worldpackers experience, and going to Rio to help at the hostel was one of the best decisions I ever made!! The people I met there will forever stay close to my heart <3 Victor, James and Lydia did their best job at providing a comfortable environment in the house and also at the school, to say the least. It's also a great opportunity to make a real change in people's life's when you're teaching English at the school. Adding to those things, it's also in a great location, safety wise and also close to the best beaches in Rio.

I really enjoyed every moment at the hostel. This was my first world packers experience. I met amazing people, and it really felt like a family. I appreciate James and Larry and the rest of the gente at the hostel 💚 for creating such a nurturing environment. You will be immersed in Brazilian culture and get to experience the local culture around you. Working with the children is awesome, they are energetic and eager to learn! Also it is close to some of the best beaches in Rio! It was an amazing experience and I recommend it to anyone who is looking to have a fun, life changing experience.🇧🇷

The exérience at eschola the hostel was one I will never forget. The program gives you the oppurtunity to make real change within society and gives you a real life look at how most of Rio lives. Through the school, I was able to face challenges, establish connections, and learn about other people's lives that were so vastly different than my own.

The hostel and the Host James will take you to a next level Rio de Janeiro experience. Mainly due to his commitment on making activities go smooth and intellectually challeging aswell. I stayed at Santa teresa for the social entrepreneurship program. We created a food brand concept and implemented it in a span of four weeks, all for Pedro, a local from vidigal. It was challenging but also easygoing due to the house we stayed, the activities we did in between work and the people involved. Great experience !

My first volunteer experience in South America at this hostel has been nothing short of amazing. The people here are incredible, quickly becoming like family to me. The work was not only interesting but also rewarding, allowing me to connect with locals and contribute positively to their experience. The hostel itself is a cozy haven, offering breathtaking views that have made every moment here unforgettable. I'm in awe of everything - from the warmth of the community to the beauty of the surroundings.

I would 100% recommend the hostel to those who are interested in immersing themselves in Brazilian / Rio life and who are looking to make an impact.

This experience was absolutely amazing! I truly felt like I got to know Rio from a very unique perspective. James and Victor are absolutely amazing and I have so much respect and appreciation for them! I trust them so much and you will be very well taken care of in their hands!! The project was really interesting and gave me the chance to interact with many different people. The house in Santa Teresa was really cool and felt like home. The whole group got along so well and I couldn't have asked for better people to share this adventure with! Lots of love! I hope I will be back soon💘

The hostel is a huge family, a family created during the program with the people that went for the project. James, the host, is creative, calm, flexible and trully engaged with the project and aware on how to make it pleasent during all the steps of the way. We created a social entrepreneurship from scratch and went to teach english on Rio communities, in between, we did hikes, workshops, and immersion in Rio culture and nature. A truly unique experience that I recommend to all of those who want to make a local impact in Rio and in themselves.
