I'm so happy I got to experience San Juan through this opportunity. Thanks to Ali, Jesse and Cam I felt immediately at home Ali is a wonderful host, she's friendly and generous and I'm happy I could help her her projects. The tasks are simple but not for the lazy, there's enough free time to enjoy the city and the accomodation offers everything you need. Wish I could have stayed for longer, hope I'll come back some day. Thank you

My volunteering experience was absolutely amazing! I learned so much and had the chance to meet many incredible people. The accommodations were super comfortable, making me feel right at home, and the work itself was engaging and deeply satisfying. My host went above and beyond to make this experience unforgettable—taking us to explore so many beautiful parts of Puerto Rico. It was truly a perfect blend of meaningful work, cultural exploration, and personal growth. I'm so grateful for this opportunity!

My experience here at the home house has been amazing !! Ali is a wonderful host always making sure you are taken care of and comfortable with your task, and making sure we have abundance of food . She really cares for the volunteers . The house is located near a lot of stuff and the city so very walkable . The task are not timed or specific times just whenever you finish so it can take you from 30 min to 4 hours just depending on the task . She assigns them to you the day before . Overall Ali is truly kind, compassionate, hardworking and has amazing visions for the future .
