Sleep to the Sound of the Sea
The experience
My girlfriend and I run a guesthouse on Itaipuaçu Beach, in Maricá, Rio de Janeiro.
Our reception is not 24 hours, so we need someone to cover the night shift for any check-in needs outside of normal hours, but above all, to be on-site at night, even if sleeping, so they can reach us in any eventuality and provide more security to guests. We live a five-minute walk from the place.

Program Details
Precisamos de voluntários para serem os responsáveis noturnos aqui da pousada. A ideia é ter alguém dormindo no local, para qualquer situação de emergência nos ligar e acionar, passando segurança aos hóspedes no sentido de não estarem sozinhos no local de noite, já que a recepção não é 24horas. Em situações excepcionais, poderá acompanhar algum check-in noturno ou na madrugada, caso surja alguém querendo entrar neste horário.
