I'm really grateful I could volunteer at Universal Travellers Hostel! Everything was as agreed, it was great to have breakfast free. Location is situated just above city center. I only wish I knew Spanish fluently so I could fully connect with the team and guests. I think if you speak Spanish, you will be great :) Shifts are straight forward and relaxed. Thanks Ruben and team for everything!

My volonteering with Ruben, Abby and the others volonteers was amazing! Bariloche is such a nice place, the hostel is like a home and feel very warm and welcoming. The shifts are always changing and tasks are clear and easy - there is always Ruben Abby or the other volonteers to help if needed. Lots of time of to enjoy the beautiful nature surrounding Bariloche 🌞

It was one of the best expiriences traveling. The group of people that I've found, was very welcoming, helpful with the chores and very caring! Unfourtunately I could not do some of the hikes Bariloche has to offer, so I would really like to go back there next year, and of course I would choose Universal Traveler's Hostel as the place to stay. I had a really fun time there, I would definitely do it again!

I absolutely love this place! The hostel is really nice and cozy, with a lovely green area outside that includes a pool. The tasks are easy and not too demanding. Ruben, the owner, is a really kind person and takes great care of his volunteers. I was so happy there that I extended my stay. I definitely recommend this place for volunteering. Thank you so much for the beautiful experience!

Thank you, Juli, for your kind comment and your experience at the hostel. I'm glad you had a good time. We will be traveling with Abby to Brazil very soon, so we will definitely reach out to you for some tips on places to visit. It was a pleasure to have you here. Take care!
