Satying in the hostel was an absolute blast! I loved having the chance to meet other people and to be my first experience as a volunteer, I can say it was pretty good. The last two weeks were much more tiring, though as we were only 4 in the hostel and it's big to do almost all the cleaning fast. They could consider offering two days off instead of one as days are much shorter and one could have more time to enjoy the city without feeling you're running against the clock. João, Rafa, Houssem, Vanessa and Wyll were really nice to me and I'm gonna miss them so much! Couldn't be more greateful! 🙏🏼

O hostel tem uma estrutura muito boa, tudo novinho, com conforto e um dos melhores que já fiquei. A localização também é excelente, bem perto de onde tudo acontece em João Pessoa. Lá fiquei com as atividades da limpeza, e a Vanessa me ajudou muito, me orientando, perguntando sempre se estava tudo ok e como eu poderia fazer as atividades de maneira mais leve.

Foi tão bom voluntariar na the hostel que retornei depois de uma experiência não muito agradável em outro lugar! Muito feliz pela Vanessa e o Wyllian terem me aceitado novamente com muito acolhimento e leveza! Obrigada! João Pessoa é mágico, me encantou e com certeza retornarei!

A Vanessa e o Wiliam obrigada por todos os ensinamentos, paciência, flexibilidade, e excelente gestão de voluntários, sendo minha primeira vez em um hostel foi muito importante todo apoio que recebi, a toda equipe de voluntários obrigada pelas conversas, os rolês, as dicas e ajuda, um agradecimento especial para Simone que além de fazer um café da manhã incrível e o melhor bolo do mundo, fez eu me senti exatamente acolhida desde o primeiro momento. Sobre o hostel estrutura é ótima, ar condicionado em todos os quartos e muito bem equipado. Obrigada a todos 🫶 levarei cada um no coração.
