It was a wonderful experience; when I arrived, Arely welcomed me and made me feel at home, and afterwards I started getting to know each member of the team, wonderful and committed people. Everyone was very kind, the tasks were very simple, and I had time to walk around Santa Ana and to go out to discover its surroundings. In addition, together with Cintia we collaborated at an artisan fair, which I found to be a very beautiful experience; I enjoyed it a lot as it was a way to connect with the local culture.

It's a place with several activities to do; they're simple and easy to complete. There is ease in carrying out activities focused on your professional profile or trade. The people in charge are friendly and good communication is encouraged. The physical space has several amenities that you as a volunteer can enjoy.

A really great host: friendly, welcoming and kind. If there is an experience to have in Santa Ana, this is it! In addition to discovering the city, the host takes you to events, soccer games… I highly recommend it!

Nice experience. The schedules and what was agreed upon were respected. The owner has an environmental NGO and invites you to participate in the activities.

The hostel is located in the center of Santa Ana, two blocks from the central park, and its facilities are comfortable.

For meals we were given a voucher from a supermarket. We were also invited to some dinners.

I recommend!
