Making sustainable tourism attractive and opened to all
Each traveler is unique and few trips are alike in terms of means, time and desires of discovery. Call me Mami Hostal makes it easy and fun for everyone to experience sustainable tourism with our authentic and solidary nights.
Bringing
travelers closer
to the reality of
the host country
International tourism has tremendous virtues which must be exploited more than ever, given the negative environmental impact that this sector also has on the world. The economic, cultural and educational contribution of tourism must benefit the disadvantaged communities of the visited country.
Call me Mami Hostal is contributing to redirect tourism cash flow to the people that are most in need.
Lightening the footprint of a long trip by helping people
The tourism sector is a major greenhouse gas emitter. However, it is also a way for the wealth of developed countries to reach developing countries. For any given carbon footprint, travelers should maximize their social impact.
Call me Mami Hostal strives to balance out international traveling and reorient it from a purely consumerist perspective to a social approach. We reduce inequalities, which is a crucial action to save the world.
