Worldpackers: work for 4 hours and get host and food in hotels all over the world

I just discovered this social media Worldpackers through a post on Catraca Livre "Discover 5 ways to live on the beach doing what you like." It's not exactly "to live", as the title suggests, but the social network really allows you to stay for two weeks and in some cases up to four months or more in hostels and hotels all over the world exchanging your services for host, food and other things .

You can create your profile as a traveler or as a host. And, of course, it generated benefits for both sides. The host saves money just like the traveler.

In Worldpackers you will add your skills or what you would like to work on or learn more about. As you can see in the image, for example, in Administration, Social Media, at the reception, as Bartender, as musician and others.

In return you will have benefits in the hostel. In most places you will work for 4 hours a day, you'll have two days off a week and you'll stay at least two weeks in town assisting their staff.

It seems to be a great experience. I want to try it soon! It has many hotels and hostels interesting.
