It really was an incredible experience. I forgot all my stress during that time and was able to switch off like never before. The hostel is a beautiful place to enjoy nature and meet really nice people. You should definitely have a basic understanding of Spanish in order to be able to communicate without problems, although the hosts really try even if you don't understand Spanish. I was able to learn a lot of new things on this trip and experience unforgettable moments. I definitely recommend it!

Increible una travesia maravilloso... Que vale 100% conoci muchos turisticas aprendi a ser mas sociable en tampoco tiempo, conecte con mi pasión por el arte, aprendi mucho con Andres ya que me enseño sobre la cultura llanera, la historia del pueblo y aprendi sobre aves. Desde el primer dia como dices en la cultura llanera me recibieron como su pariente son agradables y amistosos. Angie y su hija son amigables y todos me hizieron sentir como en casa. Conecte mucho con la naturaleza ya que hay mucha biodiversidad de animales, desconocia de muchas cosas que seria facil googlear la mejor experi..

Este voluntariado me saco de mi zona de confort, conocí a personas que se convirtieron en mis amigos y me hicieron pasar momentos inolvidables, tenía mucho que trabajar en mi porque llegué echa un desastre emocionalmente, gracias a Angie (esposa de Andrés) me cuido y trató como si fuera su hija, cree momentos muy divertidos y llenos de amor, regresé a México muy energética, las actividades no fueron pesadas y también pude disfrutar mucho de mis tiempos libres, en lo personal los mosquitos me comían te recomiendo llevar un repelente bueno
