Description
Hello my name's Charlie I'm 23 and I've basically spent the last 4 years of my life dedicated to either working and saving to travel (pandemic gave not much else to do) and to the travel itself.
I did one work away in dec 2019/Jan 2020 which was a great experience,
and another in september/october 2023, as part of a larger 8 month long trip throughout south america.

I'm quite comfortable in french, first workaway i did was in Quebec, and I've spent a lot of time in France, my Spanish abilites are more simple and lacks any formal education, but after 8 months straight in Latam have more on the ground experience in the hispanic world than my accumulated time in the Francophone. I would he happy to help francophones or hispanohablantes practice and develop their english in exchange for their help :)

Overall had an amazing time working here last year. I think that you get out exactly what you put in with your time here. I wanted a social atmosphere and ability to make friends easily that sometimes while traveling I look for but can't find. I was motivated to make a family out of the folks here and the gang welcomed me in which is exactly what… read more I was hoping for. Later on my trip I encountered 2 or 3 people I met while here and it was a pleasure to catch up and reminisce.
I think if you know that you're the type to isolate and close yourself off then maybe you won't have as good of a time, I think some other volunteers too were maybe overall on the shy-er side, and I recall someone wasn't meshing well and bailed after a few days. Even for me I did take a couple of days to just do my own thing and not be social and it's not like it was impossible, but the place lends it self to the outgoing. Afterall, it is a party hostel in a party neighborhood and some ability to party back is needed. Also not to mention the club next door that often would make sleep in the adjacent volunteers house difficult. If you sleep very light and earbuds don't agree with you then you really should keep that in mind. I'm a pretty heavy sleeper I think and wouldn't go for earplugs most nights but sometimes it even woke me up at 6 or 7 am with music still going on.
The workload was always manageable and not very stressful at all for me. I was doing reception 3 days a week, two 10 hour night shifts and one 6-8 hour morning or afternoon shift, that's slightly over the 25 hours listed but I agreed to that arrangement and was happy with it. It didn't come out of no where I mean. If you're doing cleaning, bartending, or maintenance the hours and days work differently and I can't speak on that.
The regular staff were a delight during my entire stay. I was delayed arriving in Santiago by about a week because of a border closure and had to keep changing my estimated arrival date, and Eduardo who I was communicating with did not seem soured at all when I finally arrived at 2 AM. Earlier, I mentioned being a heavy sleeper, one time I failed to wake up for my morning shift and got woken up by Felipe about 45 minutes after his night shift should have ended, he wasn't even openly mad so I'd say things can be pretty forgiving. I made some other simple beginner mistakes with counting and stuff never felt like I would get in trouble, and no one was going to yell at me for it.

Overall had an amazing time here. If you're sociable and willing to reach out for friends it's real likely there's plenty of people who are gonna reach back. If you keep to yourself then I guess you very well could simply do your hours and then find a quiet corner around the hostel or go out doing your own thing. It was a good gig.

Charles is a working machine. He combines his skills with a strong personality which makes him very pleasant to be around. He knew how to bring a spark of youth to my project. He quickly adapted to my lifestyle and took advantage of the benefits of my region. I highly recommend it to you.

Rejean was a swell host, perfectly able to communicate in english if (like me) your french has holes in it. We had agreed that I would be helping with photography and videographer for his Santa career, and I also was an elf for 2 days, which was interesting. Extremely Generous amount of free time over my month-long stay, I definitely should have… read more
