Collin and the other volunteers made this experience so perfect, I had the best time. Merlo is beautiful, surrounded by mountains, lush trees, rivers and streams, and the town is so pretty and quaint. There are shops and community events easily within reach of the hostel with a bit of walking, and I was never bored during the three weeks. The people you meet here are so welcoming and lovely. I made close friends very easily, that I am still in touch with. The volunteering hours were well organised, communicated, fair and for the agreed times. I 100% recommend this experience.

I had such a wonderful time at the hostel! Collin is a wonderful host along with his family and other people who are part of the hostel life. The hostel itself is beautiful, located among nature near mountains and rivers. I was able to be truly immersed in Argentinian culture and language. I'm very grateful for the progress I've been able to make in speaking Spanish, as well as the connections I was able to foster with other volunteers and guests in my process of learning. the hostel has a wonderful energy, is full of kind accepting people, and I highly recommend this experience. :)

Volunteering at the hostel for 1 month and 1 week was a time I will never forget. Despite my communication barrier due to my lack of Spanish, everybody made me feel so welcome the whole time and included me in everything. The host Colin is a great team leader and creates an amazing environment to work and live in. Although I do suggest of you are neurodivergant definitly have headphones as there is music playing ALL day so it can be overstimulating! If you have the opportunity, the hostel is an amazing place filled by amazing people and a great atmosphere ❤

I had a great experience at the hostel. The hostel is beautiful with plenty of space and activities. I loved the pool and was there as much as I could be. I think Merlo is a beautiful town just keep in mind if you wanna go do an activity you have to take a bus or walk 40 minutes or more. But besides the walking there's a lot of little adventure you can go on. The work is fairly easy just depends on what time you work at. Everyone is very chill and flexible if your unhappy or wanting something different! Overall I had a good experience here and met some amazing people,thanks for a great time!

Not much of an international setting (aside from the other volunteers) as it's fantastic for getting to know the local culture and people visiting from within Argentina. Because of this, I had a perfect opportunity to improve my Spanish and participate in local activities such as asado. Despite the language barrier (which was very present), everyone I met at the hostel, from other staff to people staying at the hostel, acted very respectful towards me and made it a fun and authentic experience.

It was my second volunteering at a hostel, and I couldn't be happier. The other volunteers and the guests became my family for the month and a half I spent in CasaGrande. Regarding the tasks, it was really easy, and the tasks changed every week so I got to experience different things to do in a hostel. Collin, the host, was very flexible about the schedule If you're thinking of volunteering at CasaGrande, don't hesitate because you'll have an amazing experience!

Una experiencia que literalmente me cambio la vida, tuve la suerte de coincidir con un grupo de voluntarios maravilloso que tanto ellos como el anfitrión me hicieron sentir bienvenido desde el minuto cero, no solo pude aprender sobre el rubro hotelero sino que forme amigos y experiencias que nunca voy a olvidar, estoy profundamente agradecido con el hostel y todo lo que me ha dado, si vas con buena predisposición de aprender y conocer gente te aseguro que la vas a pasar muy bien

Collin, alias the boss, es un ser increible, ama lo que hace, ama su lugar "el hostel" y realmente hace honor a su nombre. Es un hogar para quienes lo habitan, el equipo de voluntarios que se formo cuando llegue fue hermoso, increibles personas. El personal fijo del hostel son maravillosos, enseñan con mucho amor y respeto. Realmente toda la experiencia fue hermosa, crecer como persona, aprender a compartir, mediar, conciliar. Contar con tanto espacio al aire libre, realmente, recomiento visitar y conocer, y claro siempre seran bienvenidos en el hostel. Con mucho amor los guardo en mi cora
