I'm so grateful to Giannina for the opportunity to volunteer in Puerto Natales! The hostel truly felt like a big family, and I got to meet so many fascinating people and make friends from all over the world every single day. The work during the low season was very light and relaxed, which gave me plenty of time to enjoy the atmosphere. Giannina is an amazing host, I deeply admire how gracefully she balances her studies with running the hostel. I really hope to come back next time and chat with everyone in Spanish!

I had an amazing volunteering experience at Vive Hostel. The tasks and the hours were clear and Giannina explained everything clear from the very beginning. The hostel has a great vibe and energy. It is small and cozy, it's easy to run and take care of different aspects as a volunteer. Giannina is an excellent host, always helpful with whatever I needed and made sure I my time there is seamless.

The experience couldn't have been more perfect! The hostel is beautiful! It doesn't represent the majority of hostels. It really feels like home. Very clean, the kitchen is beautiful and well equipped. Gianni is a good host! The tasks to be performed are transmitted with tremendous clarity and order. The work schedule is very well designed and organized. I am also eternally grateful for Gianni's flexibility, which allowed me to gather rest days to be able to go several days in a row to Torres del Paine National Park! I would definitely volunteer here! The hostel is a second home!!!

Staying at Vive Hostel was a very good experience! Gianni is extremely receptive, a partner, amiable, friendly, flexible and understanding. More than a host-volunteer relationship, we created a true bond of friendship! I know I have a base in Puerto Natales. Thank you for everything, Gianni!
