  • This one month of Worldpackers experience was absolutely the best. Working abroad is always fun but Colombia and Costeño Beach Hostel exceeded my expectations.
    The platform where I found this position is called ‪@Worldpackers‬ and It's super easy to sign-up.
    If you want to volunteer abroad and travel for free, first, use the link here:
    www.worldpackers.com/promo/DI...
    And then look around to see if it's for you or not. You do not need to pay anything to check what's out there. You will only need to purchase a subscription if you want to start applying for the positions. Make sure you use this link for a $10 discount. www.worldpackers.com/promo/DI...
    Good luck and let me know if you have any questions.

    I feel you, 100%.
    The way you described how hostel volunteer's life works and how hard is to say goodbye was exactly the way I would explain it!!! Somehow you feel sad, happy, grateful, scared for not knowing if what's coming would be as great, and on, and on.
    Definitely something everyone should give a try.
    Amazing work, awesome video!

    As a colombian I think you did a wonderful job showing to the people a different perspective of Colombia as a foreigner and contribute to the image of my country, I hope you could visit other places in Colombia like the amazonas and see the diverse that we have here, thank you so much for sharing all the beautiful things and appreciate our country 💚

I am from Colombia and I really apreciate your labor in My country because much local people are not willing to help the community as You do, I recommend You to visit la Guajira which is a beautiful place in Colombia.

    Diana, your experience in Colombia looks absolutely incredible! Working abroad can be so rewarding, especially when you get to immerse yourself in a new culture and contribute to a vibrant community. The Costeño Beach Hostel seems like a dreamy place to be. Keep exploring, keep sharing, and keep inspiring others to step out of their comfort zones. I would like to recomend you to visit another part of Colombia like Choco.

But I'm also looking at Eastern Europe to try and keep my budget low as I'm still a student without a solid income. I'm having a study exchange in Netherlands for 6 months next year with breaks in between so volunteering 1-2 weeks at a time may be possible for me.
