My time teaching English at the organization was unforgettable! The kids were so fun to teach, the other volunteers have become life friends, and you do so many incredible outings in the Amazon! Christian is fantastic help for anything you need! Dora & Hans and well as their children are the absolute best and are great at helping with anything you could need. They are also awesome at being flexible with plans! I extended my stay by 3 weeks because I love it here so much!! I honestly would love to stay longer! I have lots of tips if you plan to come here so message me if you have questions:)

Mi experiencia en la organización fue muy buena! Hasta me resultó difícil irme. Hans, Dora y su familia son personas muy amables con un gran corazón, siempre están procurando que uno esté cómodo y contento. Preparar las clases y poder enseñar a ambos grupos fue una experiencia desafiante pero hermosa. Lo volvería a hacer sin dudas. Muchas gracias!

I absolutely loved volunteering for the organization! When I arrived in Codo del Pozuzo, I was picked up by Dora and I directly felt welcomed. Dora, Hans and Wolfgang are wonderful people who were always there when we needed help. I was amazed how they integrated us into their life and showed us the local culture. Organizing and giving the English classes was a lot of fun and the kids were very eager to learn. On the weekends, we went on amazing adventures, like camping in the Amazonian jungle and going swimming. This was definitely one of my favorite experiences during my travels.

We were welcomed with open arms immediately into the organization by Dora, Hans and their family. The kids at school were really engaging, loving and willing to learn, By the time I left I felt like I had a whole new community of friends with incredible experiences. We were provided with our own rooms and all basic essentials

I thoroughly enjoyed my time in Codo del Pozuzo. After being greeted by the wonderful Dora, & being shown to my room, it quickly became a home away from home! Christian & the host family there incl. Dora, Hans & Wolfgang were eager to get us involved in the activities we were able to do there, all of which were amazing & unforgettable trips. Teaching the children 4 days a week was a rewarding & collaborative experience, where all of us volunteers worked together to create a lesson plan each day in a fun & interactive way. Highly recommend if you'd like to immerse yourself in a new culture!

Christian immediately made me feel welcome. In Codo Del Posuzo, where we stayed, Dora was super helpful and kind in helping with any issues we had or with anything we needed. You will never be without the help you need. The work included 2 classes per day, 1.5 hours each. 1 with children, and one with teenagers and adults. This work is very rewarding and the students will really appreciate you. I had a good social experience in Codo, with 5 other volunteers to share the experience with. The 3 free days are full of exploration of the Jungle and Pampa in the area. Super fun.

I had a great time in Codo! I don't speak much Spanish so communication with the hosts could sometimes be awkward but manageable. Dora and Hans were very welcoming, they took me out several times on different adventures and tried their best to make me feel at home. The English classes could be challenging at times. Attendance varies, sometimes there are 0-2 students and others there are 6-8 so it's hard to keep building off previous lessons. The students are eager to learn though it just requires flexible plans/lessons. If any future/potential volunteers have questions feel free to contact me!

The experience in Codo del Pozuzo has been fulfilling in many aspects: having the opportunity to share our knowledge and background and learning so many things about that amazing place in the middle of the peruvian jungle. They have issues yet to be impoved but the determination to do It though. Very happy to have gone and worked with them. Very important to strengthen the alliance with the natural reserve, so they can generate a very productive synergy. Un abrazo a tod@s!!

Good experience to meet locals and get to know the Peruvian culture. During the week you teach kids and adults (2-3 hours per day) while Friday to Sunday is spent going to other villages or excursions (if there are enough volunteers). Thank you so much Hans and Dora for being so welcoming. Would recommend, and there is need for more volunteers since there are not so many!

Semilla's Life was an amazing experience- I felt like it was a true cultural immersion in a place that would be difficult to access otherwise. I was only able to come for 2 weeks, but my spanish improved so much. I had a lot of fun teaching as we were able to incorporate lots of games to help the kids with their english. The weekend activities were great, we went to the waterfalls, swimming, camping, made chocolate, and visited a local tribe. Many thanks to Hans, Dora, Mayorit for welcoming us into their lives and showing us the beauty of peru!! Christian is very supportive. I recommend:)
