Mi experiencia en el hostel fue sensacional, me sumergí en la cultura local, conocí personas de la favela y una realidad muy distinta a la que yo creía. Los anfitriones Larry y Meg son muy buenas personas con las mejores intenciones de mantener el hostel en buenas condiciones y ayudar al medioambiente. Samuel es una persona increíble y muy compañero con todas las personas. Agradezco la oportunidad que me dieron de vivir esa realidad tan distinta y enriquecedora.

I had a great time during my stay in Rio. I applied to stay at the hostel, but ended up staying in Alzira house which I preferred anyways. Kat was so nice and welcoming. She was very attentive to all our needs and responsive as well. I never once felt unsafe living in Vidigal and felt perfectly safe going outside by myself at night. Everyone at the hostel was super friendly and inclusive, there was always something going on, and everyone was always invited. Teaching the kids and adults was very rewarding as well, and you get to learn some Portuguese as well! I definitely hope to come back 🫶

Colaborar com o projeto o hostel é uma experiência e tanto. O projeto melhora a chance de dezenas de crianças, adolescentes e adultos, traz conhecimentos de idiomas e contatos com o meio ambiente que mudam o rumo dos destinos dos envolvidos. A favela do Vidigal tem se torna um lugar melhor pelo trabalho desenvolvido pela ECDM. Foi um prazer poder colaborar no desenvolvimento do projeto e de todos envolvidos com ele.

I loved this trip so much! I got really attached to the people who lived and worked with me. The work schedule is great, and the job is both interesting and fun! On top of teaching English to the kids, you also learn Portuguese in return. I highly recommend going a thousand times over!

Staying at the hostel was an unforgettable experience that I would highly recommend to anyone. Teaching english was not only fun and enjoyable, but also a wonderful way to connect with local life and meet people from the community. The atmosphere is incredibly warm and friendly, making it easy to form meaningful connections both with the locals and with fellow volunteers and team members involved in the project. And all of this takes place in Rio de Janeiro, one of the most beautiful cities in the world!

Mind blowing experience! I had an amazing time at the hostel: Lydia, Victor, Larry and James and the whole team the hostel welcomed me since the very first minute and helped me to understand and get used to the local culture, always feeling safe and secure! Vidigal is safe, and the experience with the kids is amazing! Also you have the possibility to connect with international travelers and do something with them in the free time, building a second family here in Brazil! Totally would recommend! Hope to come back soon :)

Absolutely loved my time at the hostel! The team was incredibly loving and friendly, and I truly felt that we were making a positive social impact by teaching English. Staying in Vidigal was a beautiful way to experience the local culture (it was very safe) and I wouldn't have traded it for anywhere else! There actually weren't too many volunteer hours, and I would've been happy to contribute even more. I can't wait to come back one day — thank you for such a meaningful and unforgettable experience!

A experiência é sensacional, foi meu primeiro voluntariado e acredito que aprendi com os alunos muito mais do que ensinei. o hostel é muito mais do que somente uma o hostel de inglês, é um programa multidisciplinar que trabalha com várias dimensões da vida na favela. A equipe é sempre muito flexível e interessada em ajudar, e as relações que se formam no espaço são leves e com muito a ensinar. As acomodações são boas e os horários de trabalho bem tranquilos. Pra quem tem dúvidas sobre segurança, posso dizer: não tem lugar mais seguro pra se estar.
