Manage adventures and money! Volunteering at our hostel

Canada

Luis and Mil are incredible hosts—so warm and welcoming! They went above and beyond by organizing events and parties, always treating us with the utmost respect. It was a pleasure to work with them as their social media manager, creating videos to help promote their tours. We had the chance to visit Tequila and Lake Chapala, and Gaby and I are so thankful for the experience. Their location in the historic downtown made it easy to explore local shops and restaurants, and the walking tours were a lot of fun. They're fantastic guides, and I highly recommend them as hosts!

I had an absolutly amazing time at the hostel. Mildred and Luis are not only amazing hosts; they are friends with all of the volunteers and guests. Volunteering at the hostel provided me with the perfect gateway to explore Guadalajara, continue practicing my Spanish, and meet amazing people. I would recommend volunteering here to anyone who is looking to immerse themselves in Mexican culture and learn about Guadalajara, one of Mexico's best cities.

I had an amazing time in Guadalajara at the hostel! I originally planned to just be there for 2 weeks but ended up extending it to 5 weeks. That's all down to Mil and the other volunteers who made it such a fun and comfortable place to be, I felt at home. Also, having 2 adorable dogs to snuggle is a bonus. I felt very included and welcome even though there was a language barrier between me and some of the other volunteers. We cooked together, hung out, went out and it felt like slotting into a friendship group. The work is'nt demanding so you have lots of time to explore the city.

This was my first volunteering experience, and a very good one. I really enjoyed combining my job as a graphic designer with my trip. Luis is very invested in improving the brand image of his hostel, which makes the work enjoyable, while being the hostel in my cretations. the hostel has been for me more than just a hostel, but a home in which we have formed a family with the other volunteers. I enjoyed the yoga classes as well as the different activities. Although the kitchen is not always very clean, we spent some very nice moments of sharing. I am very grateful to have been part of this adventure

Luis is such a nice and fun person. He really wants you to enjoy your stay and makes you feel very welcomed and included in the hostel. He wants the image of his hostel to change for the better and really wants to improve, so participating in this is very inspiring. It's not always super organised but you can talk to Luis about it and he'll do his best to make it better. You are right in the center of Guadalajara so it is easy to move around. I definetely recommand this host. More than a hostel, it's an experience ;)

Casa Kush was a good experience in Guadalajara, just in the center of the downtown. Luis is a wonderful host and he can help you to meet Gudalajara and be confortable. Stay in Casa Kush is so amazing!!!!

Casa Kush was my first Wordpackers experience, and it was incredible. Luis is the best host I could have asked for: respectful, friendly, open and creative, he made me feel at home since the first night. The place is really fun, it's right in the historical center of Guadalajara, and you'll have a lot to explore on your the hostel time. Luis, thanks for having me! Love love love đź’•

Luis was nice at first super relaxed person. I wasn't expecting to perform task that day. I took it as an opportunity to get to know others. The first few days over the weekend I was still unfamiliar with all the task I needed to do. I didn't feel I was adequately trained w/ being the weekend and numerous guest showing up. While I was there I noticed how filthy everywhere was, especially the kitchen and bathrooms. Luis didn't take responsibility for breaking an item of mine, invaded my privacy when I was in the bathroom and didn't provide “what is being offered by the hostel”

Me la pasé increíble en el hostal. Luis y todo el staff son personas súper buena onda, siempre abiertos y flexibles para adaptarnos a los horarios y preferencias de todos. El ambiente con los viajeros fue genial, conocí gente de todo el mundo y muchos hablaban inglés, lo que fue perfecto para practicar y mejorar. Además, la ubicación está de lujo, justo en el corazón de Guadalajara, así que es súper fácil salir a explorar el centro. Sin duda, una experiencia que repetiría. 🙌

Estuve 5 semanas en el hostel, fue el primer hostal donde empecé mi viaje y estoy totalmente feliz y agradecida. Luis es muy abierto, me sentí escuchada, acompañada, y segura. Todas las ideas que yo tenía fueron bienvenidas, y la pase increíble. Conocí gente linda que hizo que mi experiencia fuese hermosa! Si sabes comunicar lo que necesitas, la pasarás increíble. Muy recomendado!
