After 10 months in Brazil and many volunteer jobs, I can certainly say that was the best time I had during my trip over there. The Hostel Staff made me feel part of a family from day one. The owners truly know how to give a cool vibe to the place they work at and the volunteer schedule is really fair. Best place to stay as a volunteer in Rio, no… read more

His experience it's a flying... flying through the time in this house from Astérix and Obelix's book... flying in countries with Nacho's life stories... flying of fun (in a real blue atomic plane) with Nacho, Rioja's wine, the fire, and sky... and literally flying over La Rioja and Basque Country with paragliding.

Thanks you so much for everything guys, these two months with you have been some of the best since we opened the hostel !

We spent nearly 2 months over there and enjoyed every moment!
The 3 owners used to be volunteer before starting their own business so they know exactly what an experimented traveler would expect of that type of experience.
This is a brand new project so you can bring your own touch and express your creativity in any field you manage.

Nos quedamos allá por dos semanas, fuimos bien recibidos por todo el equipo. El trato es honesto : 5 turnos a la semana de 5 horas atendiendo a los comensales del restaurante del hostal y preparando los cócteles. A veces toca limpieza pero eso nunca dura más de las 5 horas. Todo eso a cambio de una habitación individual, un desayuno y un almuerzo… read more

I planned on staying for a few weeks and in the end I stayed for two months!
The deal is more than fair, the hostel well located in Chapinero, one of the safest residential area of Bogota and Daniela the manager is always very kind and comprehensive with the volunteers!
Definitely a good place to stay in Bogota!

Julián y Leidys son anfitriones super amables, siempre listos para ayudar y recomendar buenos lugares.
El hostal es super bien ubicado en el centro de San Gil, hay un montón de atracciones turísticas en los alrededores y el trabajo muy tranquilo. Definitivamente uno de los mejores voluntarios que hice en Colombia
