The Experience
¿Te apetece vivir en una de las ciudades con más viento, alma y buena energía del sur de Europa? Buscamos a alguien con habilidades prácticas y ganas de ayudar en tareas de mantenimiento. Alguien resolutivo, con algo de experiencia (o al menos soltura) en pequeñas reparaciones: fontanería básica, electricidad, pintura, carpintería, cuidado general del edificio... Nada muy técnico, pero sí con buen ojo y ganas de tenerlo todo en forma.

Had a great experience at the hostel! Marina and Vero are amazing and although I had to leave early due to personal issues, the were great hosts overall! I would 100% recommend this experience to any worldpacker traveler who is either a beginner or is an experienced traveler! Thank you so much for the experience.

My time in Tarifa at the hostel was amazing! During my time there, there were several other volunteers so we were all in the same situation and it was easy to make friends. The hostel owners and staff are so welcoming and friendly and I really felt like I was part of the team. They were flexible with which days off I wanted each week and were more than happy to help answer any questions I had about the work, given that it was my first time working in a reception position. Tarifa is a small town which means you can make friends quickly and always see people you know. 100% would recommend!
