The boss with a white cap was a dick. Came up to me on my first day and didn't even introduce himself to me, just used Translate to tell me off for 'doing nothing and smoking'. Except I don't smoke and I'd completed all my tasks for the day so was waiting for Carlos to return to give me something to do. He didn't say another word to me for that week but all the other staff were wonderful and made the stay what it was. 30 hours/6 days a week is a bit much considering how cheap it would be to pay for the hostel but I learned a lot and enjoyed most of the staff so would still recommend this stay.

Nice hostel and nice staff. The tasks were not the same every day, and they depended on which area you were assigned. Overall, I had a nice experience, and the hostel is located in a good spot in Cusco.

Gracias por ser esas personas tan simpáticas. Me hacen sentir muy bien. Pasé una semana maravillosa. Descubrí un hostel tan agradable, me gustó la música a las 10am. Para trabajar fue genial ajaja Aunque estuve muy poco tiempo, los voy a extrañar a todos. Pero si puedo regresar lo hará sin dudas.
