Ceci e Igor son dos anfitriones increíble, siempre están dispuestos a ayudarte con todo, sin flexibles a la hora de combinar los horarios, son muy acogedores tanto como una familia. Los llevo siempre en mi corazón. Este voluntariado es más que recomendable siempre que se respete de los dos lados. Excelente experiencia en la casa ❤️

Sérgio nos ajudou muito. Responsável e organizado, esteve sempre atenta para agir com pró- atividade nas tarefas do dia a dia, e também se manteve aberto a escutar às explicações e solicitações de trabalho. Nossas portas estarão sempre abertas para ele.

A experiência no hostel foi muito bom, Thiago é uma pessoa muito atenciosa, responsável e do bem, sempre me perguntava se eu precisava de alguma coisa, me ajudava com informações sobre a cidade e sempre foi mantido um ambiente de trabalho muito agradável. Super recomendo esse lugar, é muito tranquilo, cheio o hostel a cidade é linda. Sempre sendo responsável e sabendo o que é um voluntário. Levo comigo as melhores lembranças deste o hostel da gentileza do Thiago.

About me as an author

https://https://sergbaez92.wixsite.com/viajando

Hi, I'm Sergio Báez Oliveira 🌎✈️ . Instagram: sergiobaez18 . I was born in Paraguay and raised in Buenos Aires, Argentina, which allowed me to experience cultures, landscapes, and different foods from a young age. Since I was 21, I began exploring the world on my own, and discovered that traveling wasn't just a passion... it's my lifestyle. I love connecting with people from different places, learning new skills, and sharing experiences like talking at sunset, playing games, laughing, and exchanging information with other travelers. This year, I'm still looking for new adventures and hope to add unique moments to the Worldpackers community. Always with my backpack ready, a smile on my face, and a desire to contribute to every project. 🙌✨

Background

Education

I graduated from technical school with a degree in computing.
I've always been passionate about learning the things I enjoy, which is why I focus on traveling and art.

Work experience

Hello! I'm Sergio, a multifaceted traveler and worker.
Throughout my life, I've explored different jobs and cultures, always with responsibility, a desire to learn, and a desire to continue growing.

My experience is varied:

Advertising and web design (5 years) → creation of products, websites, and visual content.

Hostel management (Mendoza, Argentina, 2022-2023) → recruitment and training of volunteers, inventory control, reception, and tour sales.

While traveling in Brazil, I had to find a new career and became a waiter.

Hospitality and gastronomy → waiter in restaurants, hotels, and inns in Brazil, Argentina, and Paraguay.

Marketing and communications → tour sales, menu creation in three languages (English, Portuguese, and Spanish), advertising photography, and social media.

I love working in a team, adapting to new environments, and contributing my energy and creativity to each project. 🌍✨

Travel experience

My first solo trip was at 21, where I spent a month in Europe.
Until I was 25, I traveled on vacation. I was able to travel to Europe again, passing through Colombia, Paraguay, and some cities in Argentina.
At 25, I decided to leave my hometown, Buenos Aires, and spent a year and a half in Mendoza, a small capital in Argentina (home to South America's highest mountain, Mount Aconcagua).
I started as a volunteer and ended up managing a hostel.
Then, I traveled to Brazil for three years with my girlfriend, during which time we volunteered, rented houses, and worked during the winter and summer seasons, up until now.
Now we're looking forward to our next trip at the end of September, where we'll visit Madrid, Barcelona, London, Switzerland, and we're looking forward to visiting Egypt and Thailand. ♥

In summary I was lucky enough to go through these cities:
Buenos Aires, Santa Fe, Mendoza, San Juan, Chaco, Posadas, Puerto de Iguazu (ARGENTINA).
Encarnacion, Asuncion (PARAGUAY)
Barcelona, London, Parisx2, Ghent, Brussels, Amsterdamx2, Munich, Berlin, Prague, Rome ( EUROPE )
Santa Marta, Cartagena, Bogota (COLOMBIA)
Caraguatatuba, São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Cabo frio, Arraial do Cabo, Ouro Preto, Itacare, Morro de São Paulo, Maceio, Maragogi, Porto de Galinhas, Recife, Pipa, Natal, Foz do Iguaçu (BRAZIL)

Other volunteer experiences
