Una experiencia que me llevo en el corazón! Camilo es una persona encantadora, súper generoso, siempre dispuesto a ayudar a los huéspedes y al voluntario. Las tareas son sencillas, te necesitarán en el hostal durante los desayunos y las tareas de limpieza. En algunos momentos también harás check in y check out a los huéspedes. La comunicación con Camilo es excelente así que todo serán facilidades. El resto es disfrutar de Barichara y esa es la mejor parte! Este lugar es mágico, nada de lo que pudiese describir se acercaría a la realidad de Barichara. Sin duda, vendré de nuevo ❤️

El hostel es una casa hermosa. Tienes mucho tiempo para hacer tus actividades y compartir con los huéspedes del lugar. Camilo es un excelente anfitrión y te da mucha libertad para hacer cosas, personalmente practiqué bastante guitarra y realicé videos para el Hostel de Camilo por iniciativa propia , ya que siento mucho agradecimiento por permitirme estar en este bello pueblo. La gente local es muy buena onda y con conciencia ambiental y social. Barichara es un pueblo hermoso, su gente y el hostel es un excelente lugar para voluntariar.

Mi experiencia como voluntaria en el hostel fue excepciona. No puedo agradecerle a Camilo, María y Natalia lo suficiente por su amabilidad. Su comportamiento cálido y acogedor hacia mí me hizo sentir como si fuera de su familia. El sentido de pertenencia y amistad hizo que mi estadía fuera tan especial. Siempre atesoraré los recuerdos de mi estancia aquí. Camilo es un jefe fantástico y me siento realmente afortunada de haber tenido la oportunidad de quedarme en su casa.

Une expérience inoubliable ! On s'y sens vraiment comme à la maison ! Le travail est facile et ne prend pas beaucoup de temps. On aide Nathalia pendant le petit déjeuner et à faire les lits et les machines à laver. J'ai pu pratiquer mon espagnol avec elle en rigolant au travail, avec Camilo qui est très intéressant et avec les clients notamment au petit déjeuner où on passe des moments comme en famille. Barichara est un village magique avec une population incroyablement accueillante, de bons restaurants, des miradors époustouflants et de tres belles nuits étoilées. Merci, à bientôt !

El trabajo consiste en echarle una mano a Natalia con las labores en la mañana, y de vez en cuando a Camilo con los cheking de huéspedes. Es sencillo, no demanda fuerza, y el horario es sin duda flexible a tus necesidades personales. Muy notable la amplia experiencia que tanto Camilo como Natalia han tenido con voluntarixs en el pasado, por el inmejorable trato y las formas de organización. Muy recomendado. Gracias por todo el cariño.
