Cuándo llegué Andrés, Alan y Erika me dieron la bienvenida como familia. Thank you for everything, especially your incredible patience with my spanish and tips for what to see and do. Everyone at this hostel is there to help you and have been in your shoes themselves. This stay gave me exactly what I was looking for: to get more in touch with the local life and culture, to improve my Spanish, and to experience the beautiful nature of Colombia. The work was fair and a lot of the time enjoyable. I recommend this stay to any travellers wanting to truly discover Colombia.

I loved my stay at the hostel, the whole team are super welcoming, the tasks are simple and as described. It was a great place to practice Spanish and get to know a less touristic Colombian town. I can't wait to go back!

El hostel es un lugar para llegar a compartir experiencias, para convivir y vivir con la naturaleza, para relacionarse con personas de diferentes partes del mundo, encontrar oportunidades de redes conversacionales para practicar idiomas, crear nuevas ideas y aportes, y entregar en tus actividades toda la disposición. Gracias a todo el equipo Andrés, Erika, Alan, Carlos, y compañeros voluntarios con los que coincidí, me quedo con una experiencia de vida. Recomiendo visites el hostel en tu paso por el eje cafetero Colombiano, y lo agregues a tus recuerdos de vida.

Erika, Andrés, Don Carlos y Nairo generan un hermoso espacio para estar. el hostel se encuentra en la ciudad, pero inmerso en gran naturaleza que la rodea. El voluntariado es sencillo y se cumplen las condiciones expuestas.
