My first Worldpackers volunteer stint at this hostel was nothing short of amazing, thanks to the incredible manager. His dedication to immersing us in Brazilian culture was outstanding. From vibrant cultural events to delicious homemade meals, the team created a true sense of community. The hostel itself radiated Brazilian warmth, making it feel like a home away from home. In short, if you want an authentic and unforgettable volunteer experience, this hostel is the place to be. Obrigado for the memories!

Fazer voluntariado no Hostel "o hostel", em Santa Teresa, foi incrível! Os funcionários são carinhosos e a cultura local é contagiante. Cada momento foi cheio de amor e camaradagem.
