I truly adored the host family. Mejoré mi español con ellos! They are very welcoming and involved. My time here at Jungle Drake was so positive. I learned so much about the lodge Rican culture during my stay. Speaking Spanish with them never felt embarrassing. They completely understand if you are new to it or are trying to improve what you already know. There's so many things that they teach you about sea turtles and how to lead a more sustainable life. And they very much want you to enjoy the surrounding nature. The only thing I would recommend is to pack a lot of bug repellant!

Overall a good experience - work was interesting, experience with turtles was incredible (patrol at night and the next morning), truly amazing to see the whole process, food was delicious. However, it was not located in Jaco as the offers shows but in Bahia Drake, we worked maybe 5hrs/week during off season, there wasn't much to do. No free excursions or language classes either…

La familia de Victor, Nathan y Samantha es muy linda! Creo que tuve un poco de mala suerte porque no habían casi voluntarias en las fechas que estuve, por lo que a veces sentía que no tenía nada que hacer. Aún así, aprendí sobre tortuguitas (se nota que aman el proyecto), y pude completar mis tareas y difrutar del tiempo libre. Avisar de que es un lugar muy remoto, para ir al pueblo tienes que compartir taxi! Mi recomendación: Preguntar si habrá más voluntarios (mínimo 5)! Gracias :)

Los anfitriones me hicieron sentir como en una familia, aprendí muchísimo de lo que quería que era la huerta y sobre plantas, llevo en mi corazón a la familia que me recibió como una más y muchísimo aprendizaje. Pura vida!!!

El lugar es hermoso y la naturaleza alrededor es realmente especial, la comida deliciosa. Sin embargo, mi experiencia fue un poco distinta a lo que imaginaba. La publicación decía que el voluntariado era en Jaco y finalmente estaba en Bahía Drake, lo que complicó mis planes y Algunas de las actividades mencionadas en la descripción no estaban disponibles. El ambiente dentro de la casa también fue más frío de lo esperado. Comparto esto con respeto para que futuros voluntarios lleguen con expectativas claras. Aun así, agradezco la oportunidad de haber conocido un lugar tan mágico.
