La experiencia ha sido muy enriquecedora. Tanto Eli como Erick son unos anfitriones excelentes. Se preocupan por los voluntarios y comparten tiempo y actividades fuera del horario de trabajo. La casa está en una zona cuya naturaleza te deja impresionada, pudiendo ver multitud de animales y plantas. La comida es inmejorable, la echaré mucho de menos. Muy recomendado para gente que quiere conectar consigo misma y con gente local. ¡Espero volver pronto!

Mi experiencia en la casa fue muy enriquecedora. Conviví con las actividades diarias de los habitantes del campo de esta zona de Costa Rica. Conocí de sus ostumbres y su gastronomía. Eliza es una persona encantadora que siempre está al pendiente de cualquier cosa que necesites. Fue mi primer voluntariado y estuvo genial.

Está experiencia en la casa cerca de Bahía Drake junto con mi amiga Inés ha sido como estar en casa.Eli y Eric nos acogieron como si fuésemos de la familia, con Martín compartimos cada día de tareas y pasamos las tardes con todos ellos y con el resto de amigos de la familia,de verdad que ha sido increíble. Hemos aprendido jardineríay pintura. Hemos visitado las playas y los pueblos cercanos,el karaoke y el campito de futbol del pueblo. Cada día tenían algo preparado para pasar el tiempo libre con nosotras. Cada día nos sorprendían con un nuevo juego riquísimo y comida local. Volveré famila!

Genial de principio a fin. Elie y Erik son unos anfitriones encantadores, siempre a la escucha, en compartir, en el buen humor y hacen todo lo posible para que se sienta como en casa. Martin, el colega con el que hemos trabajado es igual de adorable. Génial de poder ser parte del lanzamiento! La comida era excelente, el descubrimiento de la cultura y la zona a la cita y las tareas a realizar muy agradables. Estamos muy agradecidas por haber podido pasar la semana en este voluntariado y, por supuesto, volveremos. Gracias de nuevo por todo, ya te extrañamos!😊

I had an amazing time here. Me and my friend went together and we lost power our first night and had a total misunderstanding with the host where we thought there was no electricity at all. But once that was resolved it was really an amazing experience. It would have been even better if I had known more Spanish so definitely practice that before coming. The hosts were so nice and helped us set up excursions and rides to and from the airport. Such amazing people and duh a great experience, definitely plan on coming back within a year (after practicing Spanish).

The hosts really care about their volunteers! They clearly work very hard and show great hospitality to their guests. I would highly encourage knowing how to speak Spanish since the hosts speak very little to no English. I relied a lot on other volunteers who spoke English and Spanish. It also makes socializing and getting around the community much smoother. Also be prepared for the extreme humidity! A lot of hard labor and landscaping is required on the farm, but short hours were appreciated. Overall, I think these hosts are doing the best they can with their resources and have kind hearts!

Elisabeth and Eric were super welcoming when I arrived. Elisabeth is a great cook and Eric knows a ton about the land they live on so talking to him about the plants was super interesting. The only complaints I had was about the work, it seemed more like busy work that actually helping, granted I don't speak much Spanish so we couldn't communicate what's going on super well, we did a lot of raking leafs and moving a pile of wood from one area to another. Their farm isn't as much of a farm as a hostel. They are very close to the beach and we had a lot of free time to explore the land scape.

Erik and Elizabeth were involved hosts! Elizabeth is a fantastic cook! Having intermediate or higher Spanish would improve your stay. Their home is 11 Km from the city center and taxis are very expensive. This made not much to do in the afternoons which was hard at times. The accommodations are very basic and the day and nights are very HOT! There were 4 other volunteers and it was great to work and socialize with others. We lost power many times over the week as the rains were just beginning and lost water once for half the day. Bring more cash than you think you will need.

My time at the farm was magical. Erik and Eliza are some of the most kind, caring, and overall wonderful people I've ever met. They immediately welcomed me into their space and made me feel like a part of the family and the larger community as well. The food is wonderful and healthy, and the property and surrounding area is remote and beautiful. I can't recommend the farm enough to anyone seeking to fully immerse themselves in a new culture and stunning natural setting. Tip: bring cash!! It's impossible to get in Drake
