The Experience

My experience as a volunteer at the hostel was very special. The tasks are easy to perform and the people who frequent the place have an incredible energy, making everything lighter and more pleasant. I am especially grateful to Adriana, the person responsible for cleaning, for her help as always. I am also very grateful to the other volunteers for the partnership, for the conversations and for making the environment so special. I take with me great memories and a lot of gratitude for everything I experienced!

My experience at the hostel was great! It was my first volunteer experience, and it couldn't have been better. The facilities are good and the hostel has a really nice feature: each bed has its own wall, which provides more privacy. The work is easygoing and flexible, and everyone who works and lives there was very helpful and welcoming. It was a very special experience and I would definitely recommend it!

My experience at the hostel in Maravista was incredible, the tasks are super chill, the schedules are respected, and not to mention the structure of the place, which is super comfortable. The host Thiago is a super nice and very helpful guy; I would definitely recommend it and I hope to return soon!

The environment is very welcoming, with respectful people who are always willing to help. The services are simple and the hours are very flexible. I felt very welcome from start to finish, and I will always want to come back :) I would highly recommend it!
