The Experience

Hace más de un año recibí mi casa, rodeado de naturaleza, pero desde que fundé una guardería infantil, mi tiempo ha estado completamente dedicado a los más pequeños. Aunque el sueño de tener un jardín hermoso sigue vivo, no he podido darle forma, lo que me ha desanimado bastante.

Good experience for this volunteering, the children are very welcoming, the work is from 7 to 12 a.m., the afternoon and the weekends are free. A car takes you and takes you back to the farm where you live, there are other volunteers working on this farm. It's in the middle of nature so don't expect a very clean environment, also for the rooms and the place is also very humid with bugs. Bike are available to go shopping.

What can I say ? It was the plan I was looking for, working with these the project is amazing, in the house you feel you are welcome, everybody is worry about you, plus I really enjoy being in the green. Has been a pleasure spend time with this family. When there was the opportunity they took us to see more about the place, I really recommend it

I had an amazing time at the Finca and the project! I loved working and playing with the project and helping with some small tasks, the only thing I had a hard time with sometimes was getting up early. The family was very welcoming and helpful and the game nights together were so much fun! It was also so nice to meet the other volunteers, we did a lot together and had a really good time. The only thing that could be better was the cleanliness of the house and facilities, and sometimes the communication also wasn't super clear. But that are the little details,it was an amazing experience!

David y Vega, chicos españoles, participaron en el voluntariado con gran entusiasmo y dedicación. Conectaron de manera muy natural con los niños, mostrando siempre cariño, energía y disposición.

Se adaptaron con facilidad a la rutina de la guardería y aportaron ideas creativas para organizar juegos tanto para los más pequeños como para los más grandes, fomentando la participación y el disfrute de todos.

Sin duda, fueron unos voluntarios excelentes, comprometidos y con una actitud muy positiva.

Quiero agradecerles por todo lo que compartieron durante su voluntariado. Fue muy lindo ver cómo conectaron con los niños, siempre con esa energía positiva y ese entusiasmo que los caracteriza.

Se notó que pusieron ganas en cada actividad, y la forma en que organizaron juegos para todos : grandes y pequeños, fue genial. Además, se adaptaron súper bien a la dinámica de la guardería, ¡y eso hizo todo mucho más fluido!

Gracias por su buena onda, su tiempo y por dejar tan linda huella.
