Back at the hostel, this time rocking the social media scene! Round two is like a sequel with more vibes, more fun. Capturing the hostel's magic is a joy. Every corner tells a story, and I'm here to share it all. The team's vibe makes this encore epic. It's not a job; it's a co-created journey. Grateful for the chance, ready to turn this encore into social media gold!

My second Worldpackers adventure in Botafogo was pure magic. The hostel offered stunning views and easy access to vibrant nightlife and restaurants. Beyond its walls, Botafogo's energy became my playground for cultural discovery, making this experience unforgettable. Obrigado for the memories!

Whoa, man! My time at the hostel was rad. Polished my English and Spanish skills, soaked up heaps of new cultures. I mean, where else could you get this, right? Plus, it's all set near beaches, waterfalls, groovy bars, parties, museums, and the city center. And despite being a residential 'hood, there's a Bohemian vibe going on. The hostel itself is lit! Common areas to chill with a pool table, bar, video games, and a TV lounge. Not to mention, it's not just fun and games. The place offers real growth opportunities too. What a ride!

Minha experiência como voluntário no the hostel foi simplesmente incrível! Foi um período repleto de novas experiências, amizades e aprendizados inesquecíveis. A equipe do hostel foi extremamente acolhedora e receptiva. Tive a oportunidade de contribuir em diversas atividades, o que me permitiu desenvolver novas habilidades e me sentir útil. Além disso, viver no Rio por um mês me permitiu explorar mais essa cidade maravilhosa . Tô muito grata por essa experiência maravilhosa e recomendo a todos que buscam uma experiência de voluntariado autêntica e gratificante ! 🙏🏼❤️
