The the eco village village village exceeded my expectations. The place is incredibly beautiful, with every corner filled with magic. Sleeping in the jungle reconnected me with nature, attuning to its sounds, animals, and rhythms. Waking up at dawn for daily Yoga was amazing. As a WEX volunteer in the kitchen, the atmosphere with the Ticas was very welcoming, giving me the opportunity to speak Spanish and immerse myself in Costa Rican culture while enjoying their delicious healthy cuisine. the the eco village village village attracts like-minded people weekly, leading to inspiring conversations and new friendships. I'm deeply gratefull
