The Experience

Precisamos que nos auxilie com o atendimento na recepção (noturno) e outras tarefas. Buscamos alguém disposto a contribuir, que seja comunicativa/o e responsável. Somos uma família acolhedora e aberta ao diálogo para que as atividades ocorram da melhor maneira para ambas as partes. Oferecemos café da manhã, porém nos dias em que o hostel não receber nenhum hóspede, a/o voluntaria/o receberá apenas os materiais para o preparo de um café simples.

The experience at the pousada Tapajós was wonderful! I had plenty of time for enjoying the town and the tasks were always clear and agreed the day before. The breakfast was good and the bed was comfortable. Also, Sandra arranged a great tour for me. The hostel is in a great location, 2mins away from the beach. The last night we had a nice dinner with the other volunteers and Sandra joined as well, there's a very familiar vibe in the hostel. Don't miss the opportunity! 😉

La posada cuenta con muy buena infraestructura, cocina bien equipada, cuartos confortables. La ubicación es perfecta! Y Sandra y su familia que trabajan junto a ella son super amables y hospitalarios. Las tareas son tranquilas, están muy bien organizadas y respetan los horarios. Super recomiendo! 👌

Eu amei minha experiência no Hostel Tapajós, a Sandra me recebeu muitíssimo bem, me senti acolhida e aprendi muito sobre a cultura de Alter do Chão com ela e sua família, todos muito queridos. Adorei contribuir e espero retornar! Alter é um lugar mágico e estar perto de pessoas tão legais como as que conheci no Hostel Tapajós tornou tudo mais especial ainda.

Tive a oportunidade de vivenciar diferentes horários (manhã, tarde e noite) e também de contribuir em diversas funções da pousada. Isso tornou a experiência muito dinâmica e me permitiu conhecer diferentes lados da rotina do lugar. O ambiente proporciona uma convivência gostosa entre hóspedes, voluntários e pessoas da comunidade. E existe ainda o privilégio de estar em Alter do Chão: praias de água doce, rio, pôr do sol, cultura, gastronomia, pessoas e aquela energia amazônica que faz tudo parecer ainda mais especial. Até a 6ª temporada em 2027 ☀️🍃

Foi uma ótima experiência o voluntariado na Pousada Tapajós. Os anfitriões Sandra e Reinaldo são muito queridos, sempre presentes no dia a dia e dispostos a ajudar no que for necessário; tive uma relação muito boa com a Joelma e todos os colaboradores da Pousada. As tarefas do voluntariado são bem tranquilas de serem realizadas, nas folgas e intervalos tem bastante tempo para poder explorar a cidade, e a localização é muito boa. É um local que vou sentir muita saudade
