I loved the energy of the whole team, you can see they know how to choose everyone well, Paolo is very kind and asks you if you are comfortable, and David is a gentleman, attentive and happy, Chiva is very funny, she always calls me Drama queen because I am from Peru and I am Latina, I always show my emotions 🤗, and Manuelito is very loving like a very good and attentive child.

I really enjoyed volunteering at the hostel. The work is easy and the room is cozy with a private bathroom. They give £20 each week for groceries, which was enough for my breakfast. The location is great, close to Southwark and Elephant & Castle stations, and a bus stop is right outside. I highly recommend it!
