It was ok overall. The English classes are fully remote so you don't really get to know people in Medellin, but you work half day so you have time to go out and make new friends. They give you accommodation in the guest house and this is a nice area of the city. The hostel is small and quite, so I recommend this place if you are looking for a chilling and relaxing place

Yo estuve en el área de redes sociales. El trabajo fue ameno con los proyectos de Diego. El barrio de la casa es muy seguro y bueno para vivir. la casa también esta muy bonito y se nota que le ponen mucho esfuerzo para dar una buena experiencia a los huespedes. Me gustó la experiencia.

Lamentablemente no fue una buena experiencia por cómo me echaron del lugar. El motivo fué habernos dejado junto con otra voluntaria la puerta entre abierta a dos escalones de ella. Mientras charlábamos un rato antes de ir a dormir.Fue una falta muy grave para el anfitrión Armando . Yuritza, que es con la que yo hice mi voluntariado en el proyecto ' creative.spanish.school' fué la que me dio la noticia a la mañana siguiente que tenía que salir del lugar . Que ella no podia hacer nada y que nada tenía que ver con mi trabajo en el voluntariado . Que había sido decisión de Armando .

Dejaste la puerta y las 2 rejas que dan seguridad a todos los huéspedes de todo el alojamiento por 69 minutos, a las 4:35 am hasta 5.44 am, exponiendo no solo su propia integridad si no también la integridad de todos los huéspedes que dormían confiados que todo estaba bien, una falta muy grave que deja mucho que pensar del nivel de responsabilidad de una persona. muchos éxitos y buena suerte.
