About the experience in: Bahia Drake, Osa, Costa Rica
Spain
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!

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.
