🌟 Looking for: Social Volunteers 🤝 | Yoga Instructor 🧘♀️ | Sewing Helper 🧵 | Content Creator 📱 | Graphic Designer 🎨 in food heaven Oaxaca City, Mexico 🌮
Hi! We are a group of friends (🇺🇸 American, 🇲🇽 Mexican, and 🇧🇪 Belgian) who met two years ago and decided to start a hostel for Digital Nomads — people who work online and travel 🌍💻.
Our project is all about building community 💛
We’re a hostel known for the strong bonds between guests — everyone talks to each other here. Not like other hostels where things can sometimes feel disconnected.
We have a massive kitchen where people naturally gather and a rooftop with plenty of space to hang out with others or chill on your own ✨
🗓️ We host 3 to 6 activities every week — from family dinners to mezcal tastings and rooftop yoga.
We’d love your help to keep our super social vibe alive 💫
It’s just a few shifts a week plus hosting 1 activity of your choice.
The best part?
We have 4 amazing local staff members who handle cleaning and maintenance, so you won’t have to worry about that at all 🙌
Focus on connecting, sharing, and enjoying Oaxaca with our beautiful community 🌸

This is an excellent opportunity to immerse yourself if the Mexican culture. Oaxaca has a beautiful mystic that you will come to love. There will be plenty of time to practice your Spanish and see all the lovely landscape, which there are plenty of!!
Also, if you are a starting digital nomad, or you would like to become one, here in our place, it's the perfect way of learning of everyone who works here and how they do it. Connect with other digital nomads, some who have doing this for years.
- You will meet people from all over the world;
- Create fun events and socialize while also having a cool space to rest and work on your own private projects;
- See this amazing Oaxaca town, full of delicious food, art, music and fun.
- Learn about starting a hostel, hotel or co-working;
- Get in on the ground floor and learn about the important details, issue, navigating a foreign country's rules;
and overall
