Located on a quiet street in the heart of Bahia de Caraquez, just a block from Bahia's best beach. We are also working on these projects:
-Decorate our Hostel, tables, walls etc.
-Create a vertical garden in our courtyard.
-Murals, Murals, and more murals, If you like to paint, we have a spot for you. We have artists from all over the world come and paint here.
We are looking for volunteers who would like to join our family throughout the year in a place where we can share this unique experience!! We sometimes accept shorter stays, but we would like a one-month commitment. Also, if someone is interested in helping manage the hostel, we would like a six-month commitment.

Ajuda
In April 2016, Bahia was hit strongly by a big earthquake, and we spent the last year and a half rebuilding our Hostel and making it more beautiful, funky, and eco-friendly. Currently, we are decorating our restaurant tables and some walls. We are also starting a vertical garden on our patio. We're looking for volunteers who want to share their knowledge, teach, learn about building, artistic painting, gardening, and above all, free their creativity in our place. We also look for musicians for our Live Music Nights.
Our main hope for volunteers is that they love here as much as we do, creating a fun social environment to make our guests feel at home.
Our minimum time requirement for volunteers is four weeks. But flexible if you are a YouTuber or painted Murals.
