I had the best time volunteering at the hostel for a month, between the volunteers, staff and the guests everyone was so welcoming and I made amazing new friends. I really felt like Lisbon and the hostel became home for a short time. The location is so good (with a great bar round the corner😉) and it's so easy to get to miradouros and the tourist sites on your many days off! Lisbon is a beautiful city and I know anyone would be happy to spend their time at the hostel :)

I had an amazing month at the hostel! I became such good friends with the other volunteers and the full time staff. Working hours were always respected and the tasks were simple and easy, nothing different to what was discussed before hand. There was plenty of time to explore Lisbon, both the city and nearby beaches! Would definitely recommend volunteering here!

The hostel has created a great foundation for welcoming travelers from all over the world. They're kind staff who are flexible with your needs and working hours are extremely realistic and fair. You typically have three days off the wander about the city and the environment with the fellow volunteers quickly feels like family. It was my first time volunteering and I couldn't ask for a better introduction to the delights of traveling. If you're debating taking the jump I would say go for it! The beaches in Lisbon are great as well and you will meet lifelong friends!:)

I volunteered here for a month and had an amazing experience. The team was kind, organized, and made me feel like part of a family. The tasks were fair with plenty of free time to explore and enjoy the city. The hostel has a great vibe, is clean, and in a great location. I met incredible people from around the world and learned so much from the experience. I'm truly thankful for the opportunity and would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a meaningful and fun volunteer exchange. I'd love to come back someday.

The hostel was my first volunteering experience and I couldn't be more grateful to be part of this amazing team. Everything was just as expected if not better. The management team and staff were all incredibly supportive and I feel I've gained a family throughout this month. The hardest part was saying goodbye to the wonderful people I met along the way. I would reccomend this WP to anyone.
