Wake The F UP Retreat Center
I've been valenteering for years myself, while digital nomading (cf. Insta @wakethefup22 or www.wakethefup22). Our values in the center are respect, enjoying the moment, fun and incremental growth towards a better version of ourselves. The center is basic but cosy and eco-friendly (water from the source, solar power, etc.) with a nice raw natural energy around...
You will be treated with love and respect, as any living agent, whether a plant, animal, or any other form of life. Do not see your presence here as simple 'work', but rather as an opportunity to help future souls that will use this center to heal or grow, and also an opportunity for your own growth by contributing to a small community, connecting with nature, asking the right questions, etc.

About the experience in: Tarragona, Spain
Costa Rica
Based on my experience, tasks start at different hours every day, and you are helping throughout the day for more than 4 hours. Ensure that your initial contact is with Nizar. It’s essential to speak with him directly before deciding to come, so you can discuss expectations and also gauge the connection. Despite being willing to adapt and ready to give and help, I did not feel welcomed by Nizar. He felt distant and not easy to approach.
I thank you both immensely for the opportunity and wish for your place to keep growing, filled with warmth, love, and a sense of welcoming. Much love, Gaby

Thank you so much to Nizar and Maria for this interesting learning experience. It was definitely a bit less structured than I am used too, but it was a good learning experience to just go with the flow. If you are interested in living off grid for a while and want to connect with yourself, other travelers and nature, this could be the perfect place for you! I really enjoyed the mountains, the morning yoga practice from another volunteer and giving cacao ceremonies. Really grateful for this experience! 🫶🏻

Mi experiencia en el centro ha sido muy interesante, tuve la oportunidad de participar en un retiro con Nizar y fue una experiencia linda, emocional y de mucha conexión conmigo misma;aprendí sobre meditación, yoga y a calmar mi mente, lo recomiendo. El lugar es muy tranquilo y se respira paz, puedes conectar con la naturaleza.En el tema trabajo como voluntario creo que falta un poco más de organización en horarios y que es lo que se tiene que hacer. Si vienen en invierno traigan ropa térmica, no hay agua caliente lo que puede ser un reto. Gracias Nizar por compartir tu espacio, éxitos en todo
