Season 2019
We are creating the first Collaborative Hostel
- Do you want to be the main character of a story yet to be written?
- Do you want to help create a unique Collaborative Hostel?
- Do you want an incredible experience?
- Do you want to meet interesting people?
- Do you want to jump off the pitch?

- Do you want to make a real difference?
The Good News Is That You Are Not The Only One
We own a property 820 ft. (250 meters) away from the Pacific Ocean in the heart of Nicaragua’s best surf spots. We are developing a Collaborative Hostel that will be called Calalas (Passion Fruit in Nicaragua).We cannot do this alone. So, we invite you to stay with us, in weekly shifts, at our Collaborative Camps. Together we will explore, organize, and enjoy positive group dynamics, excursions, activities, and more. Together we will make a difference!
We Are Part Of The Collaborative Revolution
What is a Collaborative Hostel?
Well, our goal is to actually create the first one with your help .
Collaborative Hostel Project Manifesto
We want to explore and evaluate the following challenges:
- Reinvent the idea of being a guest
- Create a fresh, new form of accommodation where travelers share a set of interests, values, and intentions.
- Develop a new take on the old ways of traveling. Something imagined only by a millennial generation that values things like an open mind, collaboration, social networking, and more.
- Inspire and empower travelers to be active participants in the world around them.
- Redefine the way people can choose to travel
- Share, learn and teach in a Global / Local environment
Follow the call of the Collaborative Camps!
We Are Living A Collaborative Revolution
What will the world look like in just a few years? Why are changes happening at such a speed never seen before? In the blink of an eye we see new companies being launched, changing the dynamics of markets, countries, and people.Organizations and individuals are working in a more collaborative way, sharing more openly their resources, knowledge, causes.The Co-working spaces are changing the way we work, the Co-Living initiatives the way we live, and the Collaborative Economy is rapidly emerging, and covering a greater variety of areas.

We are, Carlos and Juan, two brothers from Spain. We come from a big family and thanks to the interests and values of our parents we were lucky to have an active childhood. One that was full of outdoor activities amongst rivers, lakes, mountains and oceans.
The Canary Islands have been our home for the last 15 years and after so many unforgettable experiences there we feel these islands have become very special to us. Our professional and personal lives have been lively and we have each been involved in many different roles. Between us, separately, we have had quite an interesting mix of experiences, travelling and working abroad in Canada, Australia, Peru, South Africa… Working as adventure travel guides, sport’s instructors (snowboarding, windsurfing, skiing), managing projects promoting social responsibility and cooperation, collaborating with NGOs, media projects and teaching.
Our academic background is in Sports Science, Sustainable Tourism, coaching and facilitation, however we believe that in life you never stop learning. “Knowledge is the only value that increases when it’s shared” and being surrounded by curious and passionate people is the best way to be happy and to keep moving forward. So this is why we have started Calalas and we would love to count on you joining us on this adventure
The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars.
