Volunteering at the hostel for 1 month and 1 week was a time I will never forget. Despite my communication barrier due to my lack of Spanish, everybody made me feel so welcome the whole time and included me in everything. The host Colin is a great team leader and creates an amazing environment to work and live in. Although I do suggest of you are neurodivergant definitly have headphones as there is music playing ALL day so it can be overstimulating! If you have the opportunity, the hostel is an amazing place filled by amazing people and a great atmosphere ❤

Not much of an international setting (aside from the other volunteers) as it's fantastic for getting to know the local culture and people visiting from within Argentina. Because of this, I had a perfect opportunity to improve my Spanish and participate in local activities such as asado. Despite the language barrier (which was very present), everyone I met at the hostel, from other staff to people staying at the hostel, acted very respectful towards me and made it a fun and authentic experience.

It was my second volunteering at a hostel, and I couldn't be happier. The other volunteers and the guests became my family for the month and a half I spent in CasaGrande. Regarding the tasks, it was really easy, and the tasks changed every week so I got to experience different things to do in a hostel. Collin, the host, was very flexible about the schedule If you're thinking of volunteering at CasaGrande, don't hesitate because you'll have an amazing experience!
