The Experience

Llega la temporada baja en la ciudad y es el momento perfecto para descubrirla sin prisas ni agobios. Para nosotros, también es el momento en el que baja el trabajo, pero seguimos necesitando esa ayuda tan importante que dan los worldpackers. Buscamos gente animada que quiera ayudarnos en el turno del bar que tenemos en recepción, dependiendo de lo que se necesite cada día.

My experience at the hostel in San Sebastian Donostia was amazing! The whole team welcomed me with open arms from the moment I arrived and I felt like at home! The hostel is very modern and cozy and very close to the beach by walk. Also, the tasks for this experience are easy and you finish at 1:30pm so you get a lot of free time to enjoy the city and you have the weekend off! A big thank you to the whole team for receiving me :)

I woke up on my day off in the morning after having done all my working hours on the weekend. "Friday, Saturday, Sunday, you always work." And they took me out and kicked me out of the hostel without notifying me in time to have a place to sleep. In winter with cold, rain, and without knowing where to go, with suitcases and winter clothes, which he assumed he would use throughout the winter working at the hostel. You have to have a plan B, if you work in "the hostel com" * if you do not have documents to work legally in Spain. * € 1,000 in your account to pay for a room in San Sebastián

Mi experiencia como voluntaria en el hostel será algo que guardaré con mucho cariño en mis recuerdos, gracias al hostel pude aprender todo lo relacionado con cafetería y algunas cosas de hostelería, mejore mi inglés. Todos los días aprendí algo nuevo, mi anfitriona lavinia fue genuinamente buena y dulce conmigo, todo el tiempo estuvo pendiente de mi y que me sientiera como en casa. Fueron 5 meses de mucho aprendizaje y apoyo en todo momento, estoy muy agradecida por tener la oportunidad de trabajar con lavinia, los dos fernandos, Eugenia, Andrés y moha. Sin duda, el hostel se convierte en un hogar. ❤️

Mi estancia en el hostel fue realmente maravillosa, desde el primer momento me hicieron sentir como en mi casa. Todo el staff fue super amable conmigo, se comportaron de la mejor manera, integrandome y háciendome sentir uno más desde el día uno. Las instalaciones del hostel son muy cómodas, se está muy agusto allí. Me voy con el mejor recuerdo de haber pasado 3 meses increíbles, haber podido conocer la ciudad y los alrededores del País Vasco. Nada más que palabras de agradecimiento a todo el equipo.
