As a social media manager, my stay was just wonderful! Lots of flexibility and a very relaxed schedule. Both the team and other volunteers are the sweetest people, always ready to help and share their experiences! The hostel location is probably the best in the whole city. Lots of social life every single day, not to mention the cutest monkeys on the terrace :)

Even though I was only there for 1.5 weeks, it was an amazing time. The staff, the guests, and the other volunteers were all incredible, and there was such a relaxed and positive atmosphere in the hostel. It's very easy to meet people, and everyone is always going out together. I worked at the bar, which was quite busy at times but really relaxed most of the time. I would definitely recommend the hostel, and I can't wait to be back. Thank you for everything!

I stayed here for a month and a half and it was fantastic!!! I worked in the bar which was lots of fun. The work hours are very nice. I worked from 5pm to 11pm, one day on one day off. The staff are very friendly and helpful with anything in the hostel and around Rio. Definitely made somw good friends while being here. The hostel is also very nice, the rooftop is a perfect place to relax and the facilities are good. The parties are lots of fun and working in the bar you'll meet a lot of people and be right in the action. I highly recommend!!

I feel freaking lucky to have this opportunity to volunteer here. Probably, I've met the best people in my life so far. I'd never believe I'd make so many friends from different countries, stay in Copacabana, and learn how to make real caipirinha… Being a bartender here always feels more like having fun, not a hard job, right? Good facilities, lovely people, flexible schedule, the best location, parties together, and splendid rooftop will stay forever in my heart! The only disadvantage is to leave it for another city, but I'll definitely come back! Grateful ☺️

I've never met so many cool people in one place, the staff are such incredible and kind people that are so easy to get along with! The work itself is very easygoing and I was able to continue working online. I really appreciated having breakfast, laundry, tours, parties and drinks included as this helps to save a lot of money and fully enjoy the city! The vibe of the hostel is great, I love that everyone goes out together and genuinely enjoys each other's company, I feel that I have made friends for life here! Part of my heart will always be in Rio and I know I will be back! Muito obrigada <3
