El lugar es super lindo, muy tranquilo. Gran lugar para conectar con la naturaleza.
Si te gusta el snorkel, esta genial para estar todo el dia en el agua
Lo que si recomiendo es que si tenes cierta dieta o requerimentos alimenticios especiales, te lleves aparte ya que la comida es limitada en variedad y es para todos por igual.
Julio es una persona comprensiva y lo que necesites sin duda podes confiar en el
Estate seguro que podes vivir en un lugar full naturaleza, sin luz, sin Internet, hacer otras tareas de lo que estan en la publicacion, y amoldarte a lo que es la vida en comunidad.

My stay at Dankema with Julio, Viento and other volunteers was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Julio was a wonderful host. Full of heart, helpful and caring. While it took a bit of communication in the beginning, we quickly found our rhythm and built a trusting relationship. My time there was an adventure that brought me closer to nature, to myself, and a deeply sustainable way of living. If you are brave to step out your comfort zone, do it and live in the moment! I could write many more things, but most importantly I want to say gracias de todo corazón Julio!! Nos vemos!! Nina :)

La experiencia en dankema fue todo muy bien! Julio te ayuda en lo que necesites e intenta que la pases lo mejor posible
Si bien las tareas no eran tanto de crear contenido sino de ayudar con el proyecto en general son tareas leves y a tu ritmo
La comida bien pero si son de algún alimento en específico o dieta particular recomiendo llevarse algo más aparte

Simplicity in touch with nature.
It was for me a authentic jungle and beach experience, I had a lot of time to observe the nature environment, because I felt far away from my normal outside world.
A place and project where I felt soon connected to and liked to give my energy and passion into it.
Julio was for me a good host, he showed me his good intentions for this place, this place inspired my creativity, we did good work together :)
I'm greatful Julio that you share your minimalistic jungle life with others, curious traveler's like me ;)
And I wish you and Viento all the best!

Beni hermanito , Dankema is your home too..is the pure energy of the jungle, come whenever you want (always welcome). I'm glad to coexist in space and time. Keep your fire alive to spot others in the life journey, same as you do with me.
big hugs x siempre y para siempre.
