About the experience in: Santa Clara a Velha, Portugal
United States
I loved my experience working at the lodge with Daniela, Elias, Love, Dulce, and Frank. And I seriously bonded with their dogs; it was a very hard goodbye. I also got to meet some of their families, and I had such a lovely time getting to know everyone. It is a family when you volunteer there, so if you're open to becoming even a temporary part of their small but close family, it can be incredibly rewarding. It's a place where open-mindedness, communication, kindness, and hard work go a very long way. I hope to visit them one day and I would host them all in a heartbeat in my city.
