The hostel is a wonderful place to experience Brazilian culture and connect authentically with the community. (I am even extending my stay!) The program offers a wide schedule of classes, both with kids and adults for you to support the learning of the locals in Vidigal. Larry is a gem of a human who often invites the group on mini excursions to nature spots around Rio - go with him and be prepared for a great time and a lovely sprinkle of philosophical wonderings. Staying at the hostel is really a great chance to balance freedom to explore with grounded work in the community. I recommend!

Everything about the hostel was incredible. I booked it very spontaneously without realising it was in a favela or that I'd be teaching English. I was very disorganised, and changed my room twice, my date of arrival 3 times and my date of departure 4 times but the team there took my bs in stride and helped me through everything. Larry, Samuel and Gabby (the owner, housekeeper and teacher) were collectively and uniquely helpful lovely and are all people I'm privileged to have met. I have much more to say but pls pls pls book!!!!!!!! No more words, happy to discuss with anyone who wants to kno

My time at the hostel was amazing. I stayed for 10 days and Larry was able to accommodate. I met so many amazing people both volunteers and students. I taught the adult classes and everyone got along super well, I enjoyed having the students join the fun at the weekly Churrascos. Felt very safe , and got to see a side of Rio de Janeiro I wouldn't have been able to see if I hadn't chosen this opportunity.
