I was surprised to find out when I arrived that Ricardo was away and would not be at the location for one or two weeks. He didn't communicate anything with me personally; it was relayed to me by Chepe, who works at the property. As no other volunteers were present at the time, I was expected to stay by myself, completely isolated, well off the main road. I was very uncomfortable with this, especially at night. Miscommunications were frequent, and I didn't even spend one hour a day teaching English.

Fue una experiencia muy positiva para mi. Ricardo, Olga y Chepe son personas muy amables y generosas con buena energía, a quién les gusta mucho la naturaleza. El lugar es increíble : habitacíon muy comoda, alberca grande, cocina... La selva está llena de sorpresas y todos los días se puede observar animales diferentes, comó aves. Es tranquilo y relajante también. El trabajo es por 4 horas y aunque hace mucho calor y hay mosquito, no es muy dificíl. No está muy lejos de Puerto Morelos y de los cenotes con el colectivo, pero es mejor ser un poco independiente. Gracias por todo :)
