This was my first volunteering experience and it honestly couldn't have been better. I felt at home from the very beginning. Marco and Federica are super kind and welcoming, always listening, always making sure you feel good and comfortable. The whole staff is amazing, really friendly and fun to be around. The hostel is super clean, well located, and has such a great vibe. It's the perfect place to meet people and feel part of something. I'm really grateful for the time I spent there, it was an incredible experience and I'd definitely recommend it! PURA VIDA 🫶🏼
