Since the day I arrived, Paola greeted me with a warm and welcoming attitude and explained everything clearly from the start. Located in one of the trendiest neighborhoods in the city, the hostel was such a fun place to stay. The work is very manageable, and you'll have plenty of time to explore the city or focus on other activities. Thank you so much for everything!

This was definitely one of my best work exchange experiences!!! Julie made me feel so much like part of the family from the start, and Patricio, the cat - who's actually the owner - would always keep me company. No heavy work at all, great sense of community, I made dear friends I'll be carrying for life. There is plenty of time to get to know the city and the culture and connect with the locals, walk through the neighborhood - which is mouth-dropping gorgeous + I didn't feel like was unsafe. Thank you so much Carlos & Julie for the opportunity, I highly recommend this place ♥
