This was my first time volunteering on WP and it was a great experience . I met lovely locals that became life long friends . The location is perfect as it is in the center of all the tourist spots . It's great to walk around and feel surrounded by the culture . The tasks at the hostel are clear and easy . The schedule given a week in advance it gives you time to plan your week ahead of time . I met wonderful people on this trip and I am so grateful for my time here ! Thank you :) til next time

I came for 3 weeks and ended up staying over a month. The vibe is super chill; hostel cozy, and the staff are kind, fun, and professional. Tasks were easy and clear: help with breakfast, make beds, welcome guests, show them around, and share tips. The schedule is fair and flexible, with plenty of time to enjoy Cartagena. I loved the coworking space, the jacuzzi, and especially the amazing people I met 🦄🦈. Beach mornings, island tours, sunsets… unforgettable. If you come here, be ready to work with a smile, bring good energy, and be open to doing anything. You'll never regret this experience!

My first volunteering experience was enjoyable. The host strictly followed the schedule and tasks assigned. I worked two shifts: mornings assisting with breakfast and making beds, and evenings at reception, welcoming guests and organizing the bathrooms. As for challenges, Spanish was the primary language to communicate with the team, and initially, making beds could be tricky due to limited space and the requirement not to stand on them. With practice, it became easier. Overall, I stayed in the same bedrooms as the guests, which were excellent. Thanks to the entire team for their hospitality!

It's too bad we didn't had enough time and guests to stage creating activities for the guests u would love to do that! The hours are okay, the team is understanding if you want to change your schedule, one day free is not that great to travel outside de city :( I laugh a lot in Spanish with the team, I think if you are a very sociable person the team would be perfect for you because they are a Little bit shy at first, and then I enjoy myself a lot! The work is not that hard. Muchas gracias al équipo, señora pierina y Denis voy a extrañar reir durante las limpiezas! Y nina los chisme! Gracias
