I arrived with another volunteer and we were not welcomed from the beginning. The host did not respond to our messages letting them know we were on our way there and when we got there, he was not expecting us. He did not engage in any activity with us or let us know what to do in the city, he seemed to not be interested in us being there but only cleaning and cooking for them (which was not part of the deal) The worst was when I tried to have a conversation with him and he got so angry he kicked us out of there being two women in an unknown country and city at 8 pm with all our stuff.

An amazing experience that i will probably repeat once again. This four weeks have been absolutely amazing and magical, I have met so many amazing people, the city is beautiful, it has amazing and many beaches as well as walking tracks. The team was also amazing. I had a really difficult time leaving the hostel as well as Paraty. The whole team was very welcoming, nice, loving and ready to help. One of my best experiences on my trip. Im gonna miss everyone and also the whole spirit that Paraty brings.

Minha experiência no hostel foi incrível. Paulo, além de músico talentoso, é um cara com muita bagagem cultural, cidadão do mundo e foi ótimo poder trocar com ele durante esses dias. Fui muito bem recebida por ele e pelo voluntário Andrés. O espaço é mais pousada que hostel, vale saber. As instalações são simples e mostram sinais do tempo, mas funcionam bem. O trabalho é bem dividido por turnos. Meu 1° voluntariado não poderia ter sido melhor. Aprendi muito, me diverti demais, descansei, conheci pessoas incríveis, aproveitei muito a cidade de Paraty, lugar que respira arte, cultura e história.
