1 month in the jungle, 1 month sleeping in a tent: not electricity, no gas, no hot water, not toilets, not fridges, no mirrors, no WiFi connection, no clothes, no secrets, no comfort. Yes to connections, authenticity, yes to grounding, to presence, yes to Mother Earth, yes to nudity, yes to radical accountability, boundaries, yes to humility, pure hearts and gentle souls, yes to gratitude, grace and love. Infinitely grateful for this unforgettable experience of a lifetime!

Inanitah is the perfect volunteering spot for people who want to get in touch with nature and themselves. It is a very quiet and peaceful place, perfect to take a break from the typical travel lifestyle. The work itself is active and makes you understand their ecological visión. Since it is a closed community with mostly long-term volunteers, the group is very welcoming and easy to connect with. I am so grateful this experience was a part of my journey, I will never forget the lessons I learned in Inanitah, it is a true utopia!

I really enjoyed living and volunteering in the Center with Gaia and Ed, another volunteer. I learned a lot about living in harmony with nature even though it was hard in the beginning (I'm a city boy). Thank you Gaia for teaching me how to cook delicious food with local ingredients and thank you for sharing your inspiring life stories. Taking care of dogs and horses was fun, sometimes challenging, but totally rewarding. I miss all of the cuties already. If you're looking for an immersion into eco living, this project is definitely for you. Be prepared to switch off from the city life.

I enjoyed my time speaking with her & I totally recommend the place to volunteers that want to connect with nature and have amazing memories close to nature.
