Wow , what a nice experience! I recommend this hostel with all my heart, you will find such an amazing community that will immediately make you feel welcomed. true family. The workload is manageable, giving you enough time to explore the island . I've had the chance to explore the island with guests and, more importantly, with volunteers. If you are seeking breathtaking views, enlightening experiences and lifelong friendships, look no further. This place will offer you international dinners, a chance to learn about Spanish culture and a chance to discover yourself. Once the hostel, always the hostel 💛

For me, volunteering in the hostel can be described as "exercising in community skills". This is not an "easy holiday", but it can be a very rich personal growth. Sharing spaces and tasks in a hostel managed by a horizontal association can be hard, because the building is old and needs everyone's responsibility to keep it clean and cozy: you can not "host" if you do not "host" yourself and your community. It's really important to actively participate in the staff meetings. If you can do this, the hostel community deserves you friendship, magic moments and maybe what you're looking for in this island.

Working in the hostel is a vibrant cultural exchange, bathed in endless sunshine. From knowing no Spanish to engaging in daily lessons of diversity, each day is a unique blend of learning and connection. the hostel serves as a bridge of social impact, addressing local issues with zeal. Rooftop events immerse us in Canarian culture, fostering connections with locals. This isn't just a job; it's a life-enriching journey and cultural immersion in one radiant Canarian adventure. But after all, ofc people matter the most.Sarah and all the volunteers! You're my heart. Your support was my light in tough times.
