The hostel and the Host James will take you to a next level Rio de Janeiro experience. Mainly due to his commitment on making activities go smooth and intellectually challeging aswell. I stayed at Santa teresa for the social entrepreneurship program. We created a food brand concept and implemented it in a span of four weeks, all for Pedro, a local from vidigal. It was challenging but also easygoing due to the house we stayed, the activities we did in between work and the people involved. Great experience !

My first volunteer experience in South America at this hostel has been nothing short of amazing. The people here are incredible, quickly becoming like family to me. The work was not only interesting but also rewarding, allowing me to connect with locals and contribute positively to their experience. The hostel itself is a cozy haven, offering breathtaking views that have made every moment here unforgettable. I'm in awe of everything - from the warmth of the community to the beauty of the surroundings.

Hands down the best volunteering experience I have ever had. I would 100% recommend the hostel to those who are interested in immersing themselves in Brazilian / Rio life and who are looking to make an impact. The program was incredibly well designed and I met some amazing people who will stay in my life for a long time. Vidigal is a beautiful neighbourhood full of creativity and life. Larry and James are a team whose passion and energy is unmatched, always ensuring that we enjoy what Rio us to offer. Thank you all for an unforgettable time !!

This experience was absolutely amazing! I truly felt like I got to know Rio from a very unique perspective. James and Victor are absolutely amazing and I have so much respect and appreciation for them! I trust them so much and you will be very well taken care of in their hands!! The project was really interesting and gave me the chance to interact with many different people. The house in Santa Teresa was really cool and felt like home. The whole group got along so well and I couldn't have asked for better people to share this adventure with! Lots of love! I hope I will be back soon💘

The hostel is a huge family, a family created during the program with the people that went for the project. James, the host, is creative, calm, flexible and trully engaged with the project and aware on how to make it pleasent during all the steps of the way. We created a social entrepreneurship from scratch and went to teach english on Rio communities, in between, we did hikes, workshops, and immersion in Rio culture and nature. A truly unique experience that I recommend to all of those who want to make a local impact in Rio and in themselves.

The school was fun and impactful towards me and the students where amazing and cool I got the chance to interact and feel apart of the local community.

Muy bien ! Me encanto la experiencia, el lugar y la gente alla son realmente una buena manera de conectar con la cultura local brasilera. La ubicacion es perfecta para disfrutar de la ciudad y al misma tiempo no estar totalmente en el chaos mas central

We had a good time in the hostel, especially teaching was fun since you only have a max. of 3 students per lesson. The students are all really nice but i would recommend speaking decent portuguese since a lot of them are beginners.
