My experience at the hostel was very nice and enriching. Tijuca is a quiet and residential neighbourhood, that allowed me to get to know the culture better and improve my Portuguese since it is not very touristy, the good thing is that it is well connected to easily reach the centre and beaches. The schedule was respected and the tasks are easy but the best thing was meeting really nice people! Thank you very much to Rodrigo, Reinaldo and especially to Eli for a warm welcome! I wish you all the best ✨🫶🏽 Obrigadaaa

I had a great time at the home! Highlights: -It's close from the metro station -They are very efficient with providing food for breakfast (And also ingredients so volunteers can bake cakes for the staff) -The tasks are simple because there's also a cleaning lady who does the hard job but also need all the collaboration you can provide. -3 days off -The hosts are flexible, comprehensive, respectful and tolerant which is hard to find sometimes. For you, next volunteer: This is a young hostel, so, any extra love for the place will be always appreciated!

I stayed at the home for 1 month and I really felt that it wasn't enough. I had such a great time engaging in various activities outside the home, but with other volunteers at the hostel as well. Management and other volunteers were all so fun to work with and I really enjoyed every moment of my stay there. I also made my first cake thanks to my fellow volunteers :D During my stay I had a few requests and Reynaldo and Rodrigo addressed them with understanding, and I am forever grateful to them for that. I am already planning to be back to Rio in February, see you there! ;)
