Hi everyone,

my name is Camilla, I came in contact with the Camino de Santiago this summer and I fell complitely in love with it. I would like to work for the next season in an albergue in the Camino del Norte and I am wondering if perhaps someone knows of any hostels or camping or B&B for pilgrims that might look for help.

I have experience in the hospitality field (in hotels and in cafes), I know of the options of workaway and volunteers jobs, even though I am interested in paid work as I have just quit my job.

if anyone can give a tip I would really appreciate.

thanks <3
 
Very light, comfortable and compressible poncho. Specially designed for protection against water for any activity.

Our Atmospheric H30 poncho offers lightness and waterproofness. Easily compressible and made with our Waterproof fabric, its heat-sealed interior seams guarantee its waterproofness. Includes carrying bag.

The albergue in Güemes is staffed by volunteers.
 
Apparently one of the albergues in Cuerres was also looking for volunteers (not sure which one; there are two private-run donativos in this tiny hamlet; start your detective work here)

thanks Jan :)
I will have a look and contact them.
Gronze.com seems a very good search engine!
 
Here's a list of websites that post jobs in the hospitality industry in Spain - you might have some luck finding something along the Norte if you limit your search to the Norte regions (País Vasco, Cantabria, Asturias, Galicia): https://empleoytrabajo.org/los-mejores-portales-de-empleo-en-hosteleria-y-turismo-en-espana/

Otherwise, if you want to get experience volunteering on an organic farm (with accommodation and food provided), you could try Wwoofing: https://wwoof.es
thanks again,
very helpful info :)
