Hola, soy Andrea Nuricumbo :)) Estar aquí en Costa Rica fue una gran experiencia, me sentí como en casa a decir verdad; estar este tiempo aquí fue bastante agradable ya que pude conocer gente nueva y con diversos pensamientos que me ayudaron a expandir la mía, al igual convivir con los empleados fue MUY lindo ya que fueron gentiles y la verdad me respetaron bastante y conecte con ellos. Definitivamente extrañaré estar en este lugar!! Costa Rica como su gente lograron entrar a mi corazoncito. Cómo mi primera experiencia 10/10 🙅💓

Fue una experiencia increíble, casi todo el staff son personas maravillosas. Sin duda ha sido una de las mejores experiencias de mi vida gracias a las personas que conocí ahí. Lo único que agregaría serían más días libres para conocer con calma el resto del país
