I am extremely thankful for the team at the lodge for giving me a wonderful home to stay in and teaching me about their Eco-tourism practices. My stay was easy going; they made it clear what they wanted me to do and never expected too much of me. I would have liked more communication with people on the lodge but I realise this was hard as there was a language barrier between us. Thank you for being such a generous host.

Hi Shane! thanks for choosing camp hornbill for your experience! The reel that you created was amazing! Your videography is good. It would have been great if you had stayed a bit longer.
It's been a bit hectic for me during that time with my house building project, which is still continued...so I am sorry that I could not spend time with you at all. The staff over here isn't very comfortable with English.
Actually one of the help that I require from a volunteer is to teach some spoken English to camp staff.
We will have to meet again to create some good content about the experience 😊

Best wishes...Shekhar!

Mi experiencia durante una semana en el alojamiento Hornville fue muy linda. Shekhar fue un increíble anfitrión, desde el momento en que llegué coordinó un taxi para que me recogiera en la estación de buses. Tuvimos charlas muy interesantes y se preocupó porque tuviera una buena estadía durante el voluntariado. Todo el equipo del alojamiento fue super amable conmigo. Durante mi estadía estuve en una habitación privada, el alimento que brindan es delicioso y colaboré con algunas tareas de planillas de excel y datos de huéspedes, recorrí la maravillosa naturaleza que rodea el alojamiento
