My experience at the daycare was very positive. I worked at the school and had the opportunity to spend time with the children every day, which I really enjoyed. The promised meals were always provided, and the host was kind, welcoming, and helpful throughout my stay. I also met other volunteers staying at the same finca. The only downside was the accommodation: the finca is very humid, making it difficult to wash and dry clothes. Mold developed on my backpack and some belongings, but I stayed during the rainy season, which likely contributed to the problem.

Good experience for this volunteering, the children are very welcoming, the work is from 7 to 12 a.m., the afternoon and the weekends are free. A car takes you and takes you back to the farm where you live, there are other volunteers working on this farm. It's in the middle of nature so don't expect a very clean environment, also for the rooms and the place is also very humid with bugs. Bike are available to go shopping.

I had an amazing time at the Finca and the project! I loved working and playing with the project and helping with some small tasks, the only thing I had a hard time with sometimes was getting up early. The family was very welcoming and helpful and the game nights together were so much fun! It was also so nice to meet the other volunteers, we did a lot together and had a really good time. The only thing that could be better was the cleanliness of the house and facilities, and sometimes the communication also wasn't super clear. But that are the little details,it was an amazing experience!

La experiencia fue maravillosa. Todos nos hicieron sentir bienvenidos, tanto Daniela, Toño y Tita, como los niños que son un amor. Se cumplió lo acordado siempre, desde alimentación hasta las horas. Todo funcionó muy bien. El área de la escuela es diferente al área en donde está el hospedaje, la cual es una finca a unos diez minutos (en auto) de Río Frío, por lo que hay muchísima naturaleza rodeado el lugar, nos tocó ver tucanes, guacamayas, perezosos, etc. Recuerden siempre tener repelente para mosquitos e ir con buena actitud para poder jugar y enseñas a los niños.

David and Vega, Spanish guys, participated in volunteering with great enthusiasm and dedication. They connected very naturally with the children, always showing affection, energy and willingness to help.

They easily adapted to the daycare routine and contributed creative ideas to organize games for both the younger and older children, fostering participation and enjoyment for everyone.

Undoubtedly, they were excellent volunteers, committed and with a very positive attitude.

Thank you all for everything you shared during your volunteer work. It was really lovely to see how you connected with the children, always with that positive energy and the enthusiasm that characterizes you.

It was clear that you put effort into every activity, and the way you organized games for everyone: young and old, was great. In addition, you adapted superbly to the daycare dynamics, and that made everything run much smoother!

Thank you for your good vibes, your time, and for leaving such a beautiful footprint.

Vivir mi primer voluntariado con Daniela y Tita en esta noble labor de voluntariado ha sido la mejor decision que he tomado. He experimentado la satisfacción de ayudar a niños, aprender sobre la cultura y sobre todo aprender el papel de las casas autosustentable y su funcionamiento, verán cómo pequeñas acciones pueden generar grandes cambios. Además, compartirán momentos especiales y conocerán personas maravillosas. La energía positiva que se genera en estas actividades es contagiosa. Aquí se respira la pura vida!!!
