Program Details

Al llegar, te mostraremos las áreas del hostel que suelen necesitar apoyo, como pasillos, áreas comunes, baños, cocina, habitaciones y el patio. Las tareas pueden cambiar según lo que vaya surgiendo, por lo que siempre habrá variedad. Trabajamos de manera flexible y comunicativa para que tengas claridad en tus funciones y te sientas cómodo durante tu estancia.


Activities & Shift

Los turnos suelen ser por la mañana o temprano por la tarde, cuando es más fácil realizar las tareas sin interrumpir a los huéspedes. Las actividades pueden incluir barrer y trapear áreas comunes, limpiar mesas o superficies, vaciar botes de basura, apoyar con la lavandería básica, revisar que los baños estén en buen estado, hacer pequeños arreglos como apretar tornillos o reemplazar focos, mover cosas cuando se necesite y ayudar con cualquier tarea sencilla que surja. No se necesita experiencia previa.


Rules

Las reglas son simples y relajadas. Pedimos puntualidad, buena comunicación y cuidado con las herramientas, materiales y espacios. También es importante tratar a huéspedes, personal y otros voluntarios con respeto. El hostel es flexible y abierto a ajustar horarios si lo necesitas. Lo principal es mantener una actitud positiva y ayudar a que todo funcione bien y se vea limpio.
