    Boende

    You will be accommodated in a social hostel with a meaningful social mission in Barcelona. The Hostel has the capacity to accommodate up to 320 conscious travelers who want to visit Barcelona in a responsible way. There are various common areas such as the dining room, the living room, room balconies, and outside areas.  

    The hostel is in a neighborhood where you can find everything you need: a mall, local coffee shops, supermarkets, ATMs, a hospital, police, and most utilities you will need are just around the corner. The Hostel is 10 minutes walking from the metro stop and has many buses that can bring you to the city center in 1 hour.

    But what is really unique about it is its social concept. The hostel is actually a social business for a non-profit organization run in the same building. The non-profit develops a wide range of programs, campaigns, and activities for children and youth, their families, and third sector organizations.

    Mat och Dryck

    We will provide breakfast and dinner at the hostel everyday. The hostel restaurant offers meals with fresh local ingredients everyday for all volunteers in a very Spanish style and they are prepared to accommodate most diet restrictions such as vegan and vegetarians, gluten-free and lactose intolerant.

    For dinner, you can either explore the city or use the kitchen at the accommodation :)
