The Experience

Nuestra recepción abre a las 07:00 am y cierra a las 12:00 am, sin embargo, el turno en recepción termina a las 0:00 pm, por lo que requerimos una persona que nos ayude entre las 07:00 pm y las 12:00 am, 5 días a la semana. Las tareas a realizar son bastante sencillas y permiten interactuar al voluntario con los huéspedes.

This was an incredibly rewarding experience! Bucaramanga is warm and steady — a place you could easily call home. The hostel and adjoining café are well-managed, and the staff are welcoming, offering a great chance to build friendships and practice Spanish daily. Shifts are balanced, allowing time to explore. The location is ideal: walkable to bars and eateries, and close to natural attractions like canyons and San Gil for rafting and bungee jumping. Excited to see how the project grows in the years to come!

It was my first experience and I really felt like at home. The owners and the staff of the place are amazing people. They were so nice people, they behaved me like a member of the family. I felt so comfortable there that I wanted to work more. And I will definitely try to find a chance to work with them again in the future. I met many people over there and made many friends over there that I am still in touch. I totally recommend. Thank you so much for everything, I am missing that place everyday. Sahin

Fue una gran experiencia contar con Sahin, a pesar de ser su primer voluntariado, se desenvolvió muy bien, entendió rápidamente sus actividades a realizar y las desarrolló muy bien, con excelente actitud y muy buena vibra. Esperamos que pueda volver muy pronto a Zamia!
