My experience as a volunteer at the hostel was superb. Maíra (host), Tania (manager), Ju and Lady (volunteers) were welcoming from the 1st day. It felt like home pretty fast. We used to share meals and have interesting conversation all the time. The working hours for cleaners is superb: 1h + 2h/day/6 days a week. They have all the cleaning material needed and have a good schedule organized. To go to the nearby beaches we either had to walk for some 20 minutes, or catch a ride for farther ones. In Serra Grande, the locals are very generous with hitchhikers.

The hostel was my first volunteering experience and I couldn't have asked for a better place to start! The space is very nice, the people are welcoming and communal, and there is a very well-established overall organization. The work hours are calm, the responsibilities are also followed in a well-organized manner and we always have support if needed. I met amazing people who I will keep in my heart. Maíra is a great host, an entrepreneur and a person, always very caring and understanding. I can't wait to come back!

The hostel, without a doubt, has been one of the best experiences; I consider it very important that the host is present and active within volunteering. I have very good memories and good treatment, good coordination with other volunteers, friendly treatment from Maíra, the host Maíra, clear agreements and fair exchange, I would definitely return ✨ aaa and tomorrow's coffee is very good, thank you for all the experience, I recommend it without any doubt 🌱🇧🇷
