This was my first experience and I was lucky to go there. Angel is quite an emotional person but he was always trying to help us with whatever we needed. He has a great sense of humor. The hostel is very clean and cozy place and our room was charming. The tasks were easy with clear schedule. It wasn't a busy month but I had the opportunity to meet and talk to travelers from various cultures. I was with tree other sweet volunteer girls who contributed to my well spent time. Santander for me was really unexpected destination but it turned to be the best decision to go there. I am so grateful!

My stay in Santander went over way too fast. The working hours were fair but what I really loved about it was the atmosphere of the hostel; the common room was really cozy and I met a lot of international travelers or pilgrims who walk the camino. Andrea (the woman at the reception) was such a sweetheart, always explaining everything very understandable. I do actually recommend you to at least know the basics in spanish as it was sometimes hard communicating with the older spanish customers. Angel is a bit crazy (🐔) but funny and he always motivates you to enjoy your stay to the fullest!

I had a really great time there. I met so many nice people from different countries who were staying in the hostel. The work was truly fair, 3 hours and the tasks were easy to understand. I would definitely recommend this experience and im really glad i went there!!

I truly enjoyed my first Worldpackers experience 😊. Angel really wants you to have an amazing time in Santander - he always respects the fair working hours, he is flexible with who takes which shift and the tasks are easy to learn. I had a lot of time to explore the city, relax at the beach, socialize with hostel guests and improve my Spanish skills (particularly in the evening shifts with Andrea). Andrea and Angel also helped a lot with finding local places to visit. I also liked that we were two volunteers - We got along very well 😊. I am really grateful for the last 4 weeks. Thank you
