The Experience
We are a local family business located in the Camino de Santiago, in León. Very experienced receiving people from all around the world and sharing their stories and adventures. We would love to host a responsible person willing to learn and to help with the daily tasks (cleaning, cooking, check in). We have plenty of nature surrounding us and we love animals here. We are looking forward to hear from you :)

My first volunteering experience has been absolutely amazing and unforgettable! From the first day I felt at home. Juan is a beautiful person, he takes care of every volunteer. The albergue is cosy, surrounded by nature, the environment is peaceful. It is a special place full of good vibes. Tasks are easy and there's always someone ready to help you if you need. I have learnt so many things. Talking to pilgrims and assisting them has been a true pleasure. I feel so grateful to have enjoyed this incredible life experience, I will carry it in my heart forever. Gracias!

My experience at the hostel was really nice. It's a wonderful place where you can slow down and enjoy the little moments. I got along well with all the volunteers and with Juan, who always ensures that everyone feels comfortable. The work is not too tiring, and you will always find someone willing to help if you need it. Astorga is quite close, and you can reach it by walking, which I really appreciated. Grateful to have been there, see you on the next Camino!

I stayed at the hostel for 4 weeks. Juan, the owner of the place, is a really good chef and i am very grateful to him for the opportunity to make such experience. The tasks in August are very easy to do and we were 4 volunteers. Every morning we woke up and decide the task for each one of us. But the best part for me is to share my time with pilgrims and other volunteers. Thanks to Eric, i had a super time playing volley with you. Thanks Dong, Nivia, Lucho and Chiara, you will always have a piece of my heart. It's a quiet and peaceful place, if you are into that, i recommend it!

The albergue lies in a small village of just over 100 residents, an Eden away from all the bustle and hustle of mega cities. It's exactly a South Park: "Friendly faces everywhere, humble folks without temptation!" Heads-up to party animals or city people, there's no parities or fancy dinners in the village, so don't even bother to send a request. The albergue lives in simplicity and semi-autosuffiency which is perfect for me as a minimalist. I got along well with other fellow volunteers and Juan, a caring and great person!! My honor to return to the Camino and serve the pilgrims. I had a blast
