Me acabo de ir y ya quiero volver! Esta experiencia fue una de las más hermosas que he tenido! Todo el staff son personas muy chéveres y los guardaré a todos en mi corazón. La vibra del lugar es INCREÍBLE y todo el que pasa por allí lo siente. Me encantó el voluntariado en el bar, aprendí sobre tragos y pude practicar mucho ingles y español. Recomiendo súper la experiencia! Gracias por la experiencia Michi, Mara, Luis, Alvaro, Valen, Carlitos, Ivan, Maria Gracia, Jose y todos los voluntarios que pude compartir en este lindo tiempo. Espero volver pronto! Tupananchiskama ❤️

Me encantó la experiencia dentro del hostel, he estado en todos los viajeros y realmente me siento como en casa, las tareas son claras y sencillas. Conoces a mucha gente extranjera y local. Ica tiene mucha cultura además del hostel. Aprendes bastante en el Museo que tiene el Hostel. El staff es muy amable, y los desayunos consistentes, además de los otros beneficios por ser voluntario. Agradecida con Michi por recibirme tan bien <3
