Emprende Verde: Purposeful Volunteering in Nature

Deutschland

5

It was our first volunteer experience and I really enjoyed it! Sandra and Angel made us feel like we were a little family. The food was very delicious and very diverse. We learned a lot about different costa rican meals. They have 3 Dogs, a cat, sheep and goats. We were even able to be present at different births (goat and sheep) and got to take care of the cute little babies. While Working Sandra prepared fruits for a quick brake almost every day. The Nature at the lodge is really beautiful and when you look closely you will be able to see some toucans.

I spent 2 weeks here and really enjoyed my stay there. The hosts Sandra and Angel are so heartwarming and care about the volunteers like a family. The finca is in a rural area, but you can go swimming in the river or walk to the next town in circa 40 min. Sandra cooked delicious and fresh meals for us three times a day. We usually worked after breakfast time and had a lot of time to do other activities in the rest of the day. The volunteers share a room in their own small cabana next to the main house. I would really recommend you to come here if you like nature and meet the kindest hosts!

Sanja and Angel are generous and kindhearted people. They welcomed me as if I was part of the family. The working hours are very flexible and the overall vibe is nice and comfy. Be ready to taste wonderful traditional dish and have an immersive experience in the everday life of costarician people. My only regret is I wish I could have been able to talk proper spanish so as to be able to communicate and share more with them.

Sandra and Angel made us feel very welcome at their farm. They are really nice, friendly and openminded people and we miss them a lot! Their property is really beautiful and now and then you get to see monkeys, parrots and tucans! We had a lot of free time to take walks, go to the river(it's 30mins away and you can swim there)or just hang out in the hammock and read. For some money the will also take you on day trips (to La Fortuna for example). They also have 3 very cute dogs. I wish we spent more time there than just two weeks. If I ever come to Costa Rica again I will go to the farm again!

The lodge is a very beautiful place! i got to see monkeys, goats, birds, frogs, cows, and dogs! i loved seeing all the animals. The food was so delicious! Sandra is a great cook! Sandra and Angel are so nice and great hosts. we did some gardening work and i did some art projects. the farm is cute and in a very small town. it's a short drive or a long walk from a river that you can swim in. Sandra and Angel took me out to see a hotel near their farm that had an amazing view! My stay at the lodge was pretty great although the sleeping area was not as clean as i would have wanted.

I only spent one night here but their estate was beautiful. Sandra y Angel were incredibly nice and very understanding. If you are okay with being deep into the jungle with incredible people and some insects, this is a great choice for you!

Angel and Sandra are wonderful people, very caring and sweet. The farm is far from the village but this contribute to the immersion experience. We had the pleasure to live as local people and to meet some of them. All in all, it was a mind blowing experience, that we recommand to other. Plus, we really improved in Spanish and learnt about the life in a finca :)

I loved my time at the Finca and I am so happy about choosing this experience!!! Sandra and Angel are amazing people with a big heart, open mind and they made me feel so comfortable and welcomed! The Finca is absolutely stunning, in the midst of beautiful nature and animals. I learned a lot from my time there from cooking, working with plants, substanibility, recycling to the generell living of locals in Costa Rica. You can find a lot of time to connect with the nature but also with yourself. Ps: I was happy to bring a moscitonet :)

La finca está rodeada de naturaleza, un paisaje increíble. Angel y Sandra te cuidan desde el primer momento y te hacen sentir bien. Las tareas son en el campo como cosechar, sembrar, ayudar a limpiar la maleza... cualquier cosa que haga falta en ese momento. Aprendes a la vez que disfrutas de la compañía y sabiendo que les estas ayudando en su proyecto. Cualquier otra información me pueden preguntar, pero lo recomiendo totalmente! Un abrazo 💘
