Description
You will be volunteering with a popular bar-cafe in Palomino, on the Carribean cost of Colombia.
The bar is very chill during the day, so you can enjoy a hammock, a good coffee or a fresh fruit juice, all together with some good reggae music :)
StarLink internet is available, if you work remotely.
At night it can get busy. There is live music and sometimes we do electronic parties.
We are like a big family and it doesn't really matter where are you from, as long as you are very good at what you do.
Work will be on average 4-5h/day, 5 days a week.
When and how you will actually work, it depends a lot on your position.
Minimum stay is 1 month. Exceptions are possible, but you have to be very very special. (Please begin your email with why are you so special that we should consider you for a volunteering position for less than a month)
Why volunteer with us?
- The hostel is 1min walking distance from the beach
-3 meals a day included (breakfast, vegetarian lunch and jacket potatoes for dinner)

- You can go around easily on the coast on your days off
- 20% Discount at the bar
