The Experience

We are close to the main street of Atacama, where there are bars and many restaurants. We want you here to help us with the reception tasks, both day and night, some days to help our housekeeper with organizing the hostel and to work behind the bar at our hostel. This is IMPORTANT: our hostel is the oldest in San Pedro de Atacama, therefore it needs renovation; we ask for 1 hour daily for this task.

Muy buena experiencia, son 4 horas de voluntariado y 4 horas de paga. Los horarios son flexibles y los encargados muy simpáticos. Las tareas son sencillas pero haces de todo, principalmente ayudas en recepción pero también m tocó ayudar en cocina, bar, y hasta fe hunter en el restaurante.

Having Antonio as a volunteer was simply great; he is a very kind and proactive person. He carried out the tasks assigned to him very well, always with a spirit of camaraderie. His fluent English and his good disposition toward the passengers were a huge contribution to our hostel.

Fue increíble alojar-se en el Hostel más elegante del Desierto de Atacama. Todos fueron muy amables, me sentí como en casa. La tarefa de recepción es muy tranquila y se respetan todos los horarios. Todo se puede discutir y ajustar de la mejor manera pra ambos. El almuerzo que recebi todos los días fue muy bueno. Mi eterno agradecimiento por el intercambio, fue increíble pasar este tiempo con el equipo el hostel, y conocer el Desierto.

Me llevo una buena impresión de los encargados del lugar, de Sam, Ursula y Sofi, el hostel te permite trabajar en el bar que el dueño tiene a cargo aparte de las horas de voluntario, ayuda mucho para juntar un poco de dinero. Te dan una comida y las instalaciones del lugar son muy lindas. Cosas a mejorar creo que puede ser las horas que exigen por semana a los voluntarios y el poco descanso que dan, pero como dije, los administradores son flexibles y se puede hablar. Lo recomiendo
