Luiz and the community of Arriaga made me feel so incredibly at home, even though me and him barely could speak a word of the same language (albeit his English is better than my Spanish). He was very accommodating so when I for example wanted to go to the beach and look at turtles, he made sure to give me a day to do it. The tasks are very doable and the wind helps with the heat 🤩🌼

Our stay here was wonderful. Luis is very generous and has lots of interesting insight and knowledge to share with his guests. He has a cozy home amongst many plants in a quiet part of arriaga, but walkable distance to the market in the center. It was a pleasure to spend time with him, his dogs, chickens and plants. We got to work on many interesting projects, such as transplanting mango seedlings, making seedling beds, learning to build a mobile library and painting a tree on a door. He is very patient in explaining steps to complete a project, and gives a lot of freedom to volunteers.

Trabajar con Luis ha sido una gran experiencia. Aprendí a armar una cama para sembrar, también sobre composta y hasta plantar diferentes plantas. Luis es muy amable y flexible para las horas de trabajo y comparte con mucho gusto lo que conoce.

Colaborar en el proyecto es una opción sostenible que no esperaba encontrar en esta latitud. Se cumplió lo que ofrece para el voluntariado. Pude elegir lo que comería y el pescado es muy accesible. Las actividades son de aprendizaje continuo y muy creativas

Expérience incroyable avec Luis et sa famille. Luis est une personne patiente, pédagogue et passionné, il parle avec une lueur dans les yeux dans ses projets et a pris le temps de me laisser essayer moi-même toutes les choses qu'il m'a montrées. Il m'a également fait découvrir Arriaga et Tuxtla, tant leurs lieux naturels magnifiques que leurs cultures. Je recommande à 1000%, merci encore pour tout Luis
