    Description

    Our hostel offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere, ideal for volunteers to develop personally, learn about our traditions and enjoy the beautiful scenery that surrounds us. Here you will have the opportunity to get to know our culture and share enriching experiences.
    The team is made up of Fabricio, in charge of sales and accounting, and me, Mariela, responsible for coordinating the cleaning tasks together with a group of collaborators.

    What do we expect from you as a volunteer?
    Your role will be that of first contact with our guests. You'll be in charge of giving them a warm welcome, showing them around the hostel's facilities, and making sure their experience is a pleasant one. You will also be in charge of reception, customer service and payment management. In addition, we request that you send us some images for our social networks.

    Some important rules and guidelines:
    At this time, the hostel does not offer breakfast or meals.
    Our hostel is designed as a space for rest and tranquility. We seek to maintain a family atmosphere where everyone feels comfortable. For this reason, it is not allowed to hold parties, play loud music or generate noises that may disturb guests. The approximate rest time is from 10:30 p.m.
    We want to make it clear that people outside the dynamics and work of the hostel are not allowed to enter. This is to ensure the safety and well-being of all.
    We are also committed to the environment and sustainability, which is why we encourage recycling and eco-friendly practices within our facilities.

    If you choose to be part of our family at the hostel, you will have a transformative experience, whether you like adventure or prefer a space to relax and enjoy nature.
    We look forward to counting on you to continue making this hostel a unique and special place for everyone!

    Algunas reglas y pautas importantes:
    En este momento, el hostel no ofrece desayuno ni comidas.
    Nuestro hostel está pensado como un espacio de descanso y tranquilidad. Buscamos mantener un ambiente familiar donde todos se sientan cómodos. Por este motivo, no se permite realizar fiestas, poner música fuerte ni generar ruidos que puedan molestar a los huéspedes. El horario aproximado de descanso es a partir de las 22:30 hs.
    Queremos dejar claro que no se permite el ingreso de personas ajenas a la dinámica y trabajo del hostel. Esto es para garantizar la seguridad y el bienestar de todos.
    También estamos comprometidos con el medio ambiente y la sostenibilidad, por lo que fomentamos el reciclaje y las prácticas ecológicas dentro de nuestras instalaciones.

    Si eliges formar parte de nuestra familia en el hostel, vivirás una experiencia transformadora, ya sea que te guste la aventura o prefieras un espacio para relajarte y disfrutar de la naturaleza.
