La experiencia

We mainly need volunteers welcoming and receiving travelers from all over the world: looking after their needs, checking in, serving drinks at the bar, making them a pizza in the wood fire oven, joining them on hikes, or just showing them around!

Enjoy your free time chilling around a bonfire, going for a surf, a hike, a swim at waterfalls, you name it! We offer many outdoor activities as well as nice locals. And who can say no to this view??

Weather:
• Summer (November – March) 14 -32 degrees.
• Winter (April – October) 8 – 25 degrees.
It tends to rain sporadically throughout the year, so it’s good to bring a raincoat. Also, it can get chilly at night, so at least bring a light jacket, even for summer.
