I am very grateful for the opportunity. It is a magical place, in a very pristine area of the Pacific, perfect for disconnecting, connecting with nature, and getting to know another culture. The food is delicious and the activities are incredible: kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, snorkeling, whale watching, turtle releases, and the Nabugá waterfall. Watching and hearing whales from the hotel was very special. 🐋
Volunteering could be better organized, and being in the jungle, you have to be open to its conditions and to cultural dynamics that can be strong, especially for women.

An incredible place, right in the middle of the jungle and facing the sea, has a unique energy that accompanies you every day🌊💚 From my point of view there are certain things that could be improved so that future volunteers have a more enjoyable experience, but it's something that can be resolved. During my time here I learned a lot, saw whales almost every day, connected with different people and lived wonderful moments. I leave with lovely memories and very grateful for the opportunity to live something like this 🩵 if anyone wants to know more about my experience they can write to me :)
