Es un lugar hermoso para hacer un voluntariado, Jaguar e Ignacia te hacen sentir como si llegarás a casa y porque te sientas cómodo e incluido, me encanto colaborar aquí además que las tareas son sencillas pero tienen la finalidad de ayudar al medio ambiente y generar un impacto en la sociedad. Yo recomiendo ampliamente el lugar además que te sentirás segura al estar ahí y podrás recorrer Holbox y ver los hermosos atardeceres.

Agradezco mucho la buena onda de Ignacia, Jaguar y Kira. Me hicieron sentir incluida y me mostraron un lado muy familiar y cariñoso de la isla. La casa, ubicada a las afueras del centro, invitaba a conectar con el silencio del monte y a pesar de los mosquitos y el calor, ofrecer el descanso que vine a buscar. Buena energía 🌀
