Volunteering in a hostel in Portugal – requirements & tasks
It has been amazing to receive fantastic guests from all corners of the world. We appreciate the exchange of cultures, stories and travels. We have been running our hostel for 7 years and it has been the best time of our lives. At the moment we are looking for some workers & volunteers to help in different positions.
We like to know different cultures and our main goal is to know a little bit about every single person that works or volunteers with us – their culture, food and traditions. The best way to get to know other people is t cook together, talk about our traditions and explain and show our beautiful country.
We are looking for volunteers of minimum 25 years of age.
You will work for about 15 hours per week.

The beaches are amazing, especially in the evening when you can admire breathtaking sunsets.
