  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  The administrators of the hostel are Phoenix and Mohamed, Phoenix is Nicaraguan so you will learn everything that has to do with the local culture, in addition to increasing your skills in all the projects we have, whether carpentry, painting, event organization etc The island itself offers a very powerful opportunity for personal growth, but I'll leave that up to you to discover.
  
  We also have daily activities, such as learning to make nacatamales with a local family, fire workshops, and if you want to practice your Spanish, all the hostel staff speak native Spanish.
