I really liked the experience here. The place is very cool and peaceful, and working on the boat was very pleasant. I had a great time with Denis and his family. I was there during the low season, so the atmosphere was quite peaceful. I helped out for about three hours a day on the boat during the sunset the boat, and the rest of the day was free. The hotel is a bit far from the city center, but they offer free boat shuttles, and I was able to rent a bike to get around. I met some wonderful people and enjoyed a week surrounded by calm and nature.

Volunteering with SaSa was a great way to get involved! Upon arriving Alycia gave clear info about the company and expectations. Being on the boat was fun socially- between the local staff and meeting other travelers. Denise is wonderful and has implemented several sustainability practices. We were asked to help with the dinner party and teach English, which wasn't in our initial job description but ended up being so much fun! However, there was a daily boat to get to work but it was only working 1/5 days, and the boat manager Sing wasn't helpful when we needed clarification/translation help.
