I truly had an amazing time staying at the organization. Sui and Vero are welcoming, and I was able to feel at home almost instantly. Part of traveling is adapting, and once I waded through my own emotions within myself, they were right there for me- as family. Words simply cannot express the emotional impact I've experienced in working with the kids, and the impact I feel I had on them. You will feel loved like a brother, a sister, a father, a mother- like family with the kids if you allow them the space and affirmation. It was a 1st WP experience I'll never forget. And my heart is full!

My experience in Puerto Vallarta was truly a perfect 10/10! Su and Vero were exceptional hosts who went above and beyond to ensure I felt comfortable and had a wonderful time. Their warmth and attentiveness made my stay unforgettable, and I genuinely feel a deep appreciation for them. The beauty of Puerto Vallarta is simply breathtaking, and the abundance of activities available made every moment exciting. I find myself longing to return to this paradise right now! Being my first solo experience, it couldn't have been more perfect.

I had a fantastic experience at Pachamamma's house. Thanxs to Su, Vero and Lucy, 3 warm and beautifull women that make you feel at home from the first moment you arrive. It is not just a bed you get here but also great food, a lot of hugs, dee conversations and true friendship. This experience gave me a deep immersive feeling in the real Mexican culture. Working with the kids at the kindergarden is very rewarding and I also loved to do that. There is a very good balance between helping out and free timz so I also had a lot of time to really go and explore Puerto Vallarta in all it beauty.

I had a lovely experience at Sui and Vero's (and Luci's) home. I mainly helped the teachers at the local kindergarten with whatever they needed and work with the kids. I also got to help the English teacher at the local cultural centre who taught a class with adolescents. But overall there was the opportunity to be part of Sui and Vero's family and live a local experience. Sui and Vero are very welcoming and really want to look after the volunteers. I felt safe and well looked after for my entire stay. Thank you Vero and Sui, abrazos!
