  Beschreibung

  Hello everyone!
  I'm an easy going Chilena girl in my thirties that loves to travel and meet new people, I have been working in the Hospitality Industry in the US and Chile for about 15 years. Currently I run a couple of small backpackers hostels and other small bussiness in the South of Chile and always need help with different projects.
  The Hostel is pretty small, we have about 25 beds, so volunteers will have a great chance to meet other travelers and have a great time. The Hostel it is located In a real "Casa Sureña" made of wood where the fire has to get started when is too cold and it is beautiful decorated inside, very artistic and colorfull and surrounded by a big garden!

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  The Hostel life can offer lots of freedom and opportunities to enjoy yourself, meet other travelers and learn about customer service. I try to accomodate all of our volunteers and make sure they have a good time, feel at home and part of the team.

  Arbeit

  I'm looking for experienced, cheerful, outgoing, smart, organized, hardworking, independent and energetic individuals that can help for 5 hours of quality work each day.
  Somebody that has the initiative to see what needs to be done and do it, and will not need a lot of supervision. Would be great if you are fluent in English and Spanish to be able to relate with the rest of the team and the Hostel Manager that speaks Spanish.
  Currently I'm looking for help cleaning, handy man, gardening, painting and other DIY projects.
  Some duties can include: cleaning, common areas, bedrooms, making beds, doing laundry, folding and ironing sheets, cleaning windows, etc.
  For the Handy man, gardening and painting some experience will be appreciated. Duties can include cut grass, trim bushes, build fire pits, decorate gardens, plant seeds, rake leaves, organize storage room with tools, shop wood, start fire when cold, restoration of old furniture, painting walls, painting terrace, change light bulbs and other DIY projects.
  It could be great if you can also help our guests having a great time, recommending things to do, fun places to go, organizing bar crawls, etc.
  I also own two dogs that need lots of love, they are my babies and they usually hang out at the hostel, and unfortunately I'm always so busy that I don't have enough time for them. You can help me taking them for walks, give them baths, play fetch at the park, dog sit, among others.
  
  Please remember that this is a WORK exchange not a PLAY away.
  You will be asked to help 5 hours each day for 5 days and then you can have 2 days off.
  
  No outside guests permitted, no pets, no drugs, no smoking inside, no loud parties and no drunk crazy people.
  I'd would like to start with a trial basis of two weeks, and we can discuss a longer term if it works out.
  You will need to have a phone to text or e-mail for communication while you are here.
  A passport or ID will need to be provided at arrival.
