I loved my time at the reserve. Ivan and Patsy were very welcoming and made me feel right at home. The work was spread throughout the day with lots of free time to enjoy the beautiful jungle hostel and clear blue lake. There was always a fun lighthearted energy making the work easier and more enjoyable. I would highly recommend if you're looking for a laidback jungle volunteering experience. Thank you for everything!

Me lo pasé muy bien como voluntaria en la reserva. El espacio es increíblemente hermoso y diseñado intencionalmente, y me sentí muy bienvenida y cómoda desde el primer día. El trabajo requerido es muy justo, las horas son flexibles, y disfruté pasando horas con la familia, cocinando, y aprendiendo sobre la comida y la cultura guatemalteca. Recomiendo esta experiencia a cualquiera que quiera reconectarse consigo mismo y con la hermosa naturaleza del lago y la selva.
