Our project is self-managed, without external funding. The voluntary contribution covers basic services (very expensive in rural areas) and the transportation of equipment from La Paz to provide 3 lunches during each volunteer's 7-day stay. It also allows replenishing tools such as protective gloves, which wear out with use in ecological activities: lake cleaning, permaculture, bioconstruction and biodynamic gardens.

I stayed at La the project over a week and would recommend it to anyone. The work: three hours a day for me was usually in landscaping and one day of picking up trash along the coast. Libertad is an experienced host, respects the working hours, gives clear instructions, and is open to sharing her community with the volunteers. If you're heading through Copacabana you should make a stop over here!

It’s such a wonderful place to stay at for couple days. However it’s not a great place to volunteer at in my opinion. The host is really strict about everything. If you stay for 7 days you will get lunch only 3 times and the first lunch was rice and she gave us vegetables with words “make yourselves some salad”. Then she kicked us one day earlier than we were agreed on because she said that she has new people coming and we have 3 hours to leave her house even though that she had lots of other beds for customers. The work was good tho. Each day different tasks.

The volunteer days were strict, and you decided to arrive one day early. You were greeted with a special lunch that had nothing to do with rice; it was baked fish, which we remember you appreciated and which was very expensive due to a cultural festival, the same one of which we made you a part. We shared costumes and many free things, we never argued about extending your volunteering and, of course, you could stay if you were guests, but they didn’t talk about it either.

We had a really great week with Libertad and Cisco. We learnt so much about permaculture and the environment. We really enjoyed seeing the difference our work made. The meal we all had together was really special and delicious. The only issue we had is that we were expected to work 7 days not 6, which meant we wouldn't have a day off to explore. Once we realised this Libertad was happy for us to move the extra shift to another day (6 hour day instead of 3) so we had a day off. As we don't speak Spanish we had not see this information in the description. We really recommend this placement :)

My stay at Casa Cultural was an beautiful experience i wont forget thanks to Libertad who made us feel at home. The work varied everyday and was only three hours in the morning and three lunches a week, made by Libertad which were amazing. We got to experience a very special event in which we visited the local school and Libertad donated school supplies to the children, whilst we enjoyed a lunch with members of the community. This is a memory we will never forget! Thank you Libertad,❤️ -Sadie & Andrea
