Descripción
Hi! Our names are Fernando and Alexian, we're a couple in our 20s and we just opened our hostel in the historic center of Guadalajara, Jalisco! Fernando is a Guadalajara native with all the local knowledge and Alexian is originally from California, bringing a love for travel and art – we also moved here with our pup Josie and were recently joined by Morusa! We spent several months renovating one of Guadalajara's patrimonial houses and filling it with local art. Our vision is to not only celebrate the super creative culture of this city, but to also bring art and culture into the hostel. We plan to host events with local artists, as well as set up a visiting artist program.

We want the hostel to be an exchange environment that both locals and travelers can benefit from. Volunteers would be at the center of the action, connecting with guests from all over the world, as well as developing relationships with the local artists and creatives hosting workshops. Volunteers are also welcome to start their own projects (e.g. leading tours, organizing events, offering fitness classes, etc.) inside or outside of the hostel. Guadalajara is so rich with culture, there's always something new to experience or explore.
Ayuda
We're new at this and we need help running the hostel! We ask for 24 hours per week (20 hours helping in the hostel and 4 hours of planned activities with guests). Daily hostel tasks can include overseeing the front desk, answering calls and messages, assisting guests with advice and directions, sweeping/mopping and changing sheets, and all the other random things that pop up. Hostel or hospitality experience is great but not required. We're also totally open to new ideas and passion projects!

Volunteers have their own separate dorm. The room is spacious with high ceilings. The beds are individual-sized steel bunk beds, all beds have privacy curtains, charging ports, reading lights, memory foam mattresses, sheets, a pillow, a hand-woven blanket, and large lockers underneath. We offer a complimentary breakfast every morning for guests and volunteers. Bathrooms are shared – each bathroom features a spacious tiled shower, toilet, sink, mirror, and skylight – and are cleaned daily. We have a 24-hour security system, individual door codes to get in, and we prioritize safety, cleanliness, and community
Algo más...
Volunteers are welcome to pursue other jobs, studies, and activities outside of their responsibilities at the hostel. Guadalajara is the second biggest city in Mexico and offers a wide range of amenities: public transportation, public events, a university, museums, street markets, music festivals, hiking, trendy cafes and restaurants, direct travel to major cities, the list goes on... We're located 3 blocks from the main plaza of the city which means that we are in the center of all of the action and local transportation. Here you have direct access to all of the local busses and trains as well as transportation to popular destinations outside of the city like Tequila, Chapala Lake, La Barranca de Huentitan, Guachimontones, and more.
