I absolutely loved volunteering here! The other volunteers were amazing and also the staff were very welcoming. The location was great to get to anything, being next to the metro and less than 10 minutes from the beach which is all I can ask for. The work and play balance of this position was great I could do what I wanted within the day and even go out at night if I wanted! Really recommend
