I went on this experience with my boyfriend and I think we both liked it equally. It was our first time volunteering in foreign country and we had a great experience. The people working there are the loveliest people ever. Everything was as the descriptions say. Great experience! Kitti&Mark

My first experience with WP and it was really good. Everything about the host was nice: fast communication, flexibility, and overall very nice conditions. Thank you, for giving people the opportunity to travel, look for new possibilities, and gain new experiences! Special thanks to Marcia for your patience and hard work!

This was a great first experience as a WorldPacker! The team here, especially Marcia and Madame Nazare, are welcoming, wonderful people! The tasks are as outlined in the listing, and you get a break from 11:30 to 11:50 or around that time. The hostel itself usually has guests who are walking the Camino de Santiago; it typically has a calmer vibe than some hostels I have stayed in. Located a 5-minute walk from the A metro line, which will take you into the city center in 25 minutes on one train or to the beach in 5 minutes (or a 25-minute walk).

It was my first experience, and although I was a bit nervous at first, the team was incredibly kind and welcoming, so I quickly felt at home. The shifts are simple to learn, and while some days can be busy, the atmosphere stays friendly. The hostel is good, with a pool table, kitchen, and garden, and you meet many travelers (pilgrims and surfers). The accommodation is basic, with little privacy, but fine if you're used to hostel life. It's easy to reach the center or the beach with public trainsport. Highly recommended lovely people, free time, and chances to explore Porto and nearby cities.
