Spain - Eco-friendly Hospitality Internship in Barcelona

It was an amazing experience. You meet people from all over the world. You engage with them every night, from playing games to going out. And believe it or not time flies. You may go alone and leave but you won’t leave alone.

Definitely a life changing experience and the best summer I ever had so far. Met some friends (guest in the hostel) from different countries and we toured around, went to the beach, went out party and ran in the rain together.

It was an incredible experience because I worked in a youth hostel where I met a lot of people coming from all around the world, with different cultures and customs, who wanted to share with others, visit Barcelona, go to the beach etc ... It was a very good atmosphere and the relationships between all of us were so great! It is very easy to have friends when you work as a volunteer in an hostel like this one, it was very enriching for me : I did breakfast, touristic visits, the bar ... It was a way to learn more about life in firms and also meeting people and share a lot of great moments in a wonderful city! You will never get bored...It was awesome to meet people, speak different languages, know more about other cultures, the atmosphere of Spain!

I was very exciting to do an internship in Barcelona as I have already been to this city 3 years ago and I always wanted to go back. I had to do a 2 month-internship for my last year of studies and I found it thanks to Go Eco. This experience was amazing. I got the chance to improve my English and Spanish by talking to the guests but it has also gave me the opportunity to make friends from all over the world and learn more about the history of the city of Barcelona. I enjoyed the social life. I met a lot of people that I can still call my friends now. I also enjoyed being able to practice my English and Spanish. This experience was very enriching. The staff very extremely nice and friendly. Surprisingly this internship improved my public speaking too. This experience was amazing and I recommend it to anyone.

I spent 7 weeks volunteering for HelloBCN hostel in Barcelona. I have only been home for a few days, and I am already missing Barcelona and the hostel. It was one of the best summers I have ever had, largely thanks to the staff, the guests, and being able to get to know Barcelona. The days consisted of either serving breakfast, bartending, or “activities” days (going anywhere around Barcelona with guests). Working breakfast meant early mornings, but waking up early was the only part of the internship’s duties that felt like work. Working the bar was great for getting to know the guests, and activities days were always easily accomplished as I was constantly hanging out with guests regardless of being scheduled for activities or not. I am so lucky to have had this experience. Leaving Barcelona I have a much greater sense of independence and a newfound awareness of the sheer amount of different places and cultures the world has to offer. I have never had a stronger appetite to travel, and credit my time in Barcelona to opening my eyes to the fascinating world of travel.
