Emprende Verde: Purposeful Volunteering in Nature

Compartir 6 semanas con Ángel y Sandra en el alojamiento fue maravilloso. En todo momento me sentí muy cómoda. Con el trabajo son muy flexibles ya que hay trabajos que se hacen duros en la tierra bajo el sol. Disfrutamos de charlas, momentos de baile, hogueras en noches de luna llena, karaoke, meriendas eternas con pancakes… Sandra cocina riquísimo y abundante. Tuve la oportunidad de aprender de repostería y platos típicos!

Notre séjour chez Angel et Sandra fut incroyable ! Nous avons partagé d'excellents moments qui resteront gravés dans notre mémoire 🥰 Angel et Sandra étaient pleins d'attention : la délicieuse cuisine de Sandra, les ateliers coiffure, les petits goûters, les sorties à la rivière ou à la cascade, la virée à la Fortuna… Tout était fait pour nous faire sentir comme à la maison ! 🥺 Quant au travail celui-ci était principalement concentré sur des taches de jardinage. Le savoir de Sandra nous a permis d'apprendre pleins de choses sur la culture et les différentes plantes qu'on retrouve à la ferme 🌱

I had an amazing experience! The hosts and other volunteers were so kind and welcoming, and felt like family. The work is pretty physical, but we took a lot of breaks and sometimes did activities instead of working. The farm is beautiful and in a very rural, jungle area so be prepared for cold showers, minimal cell phone service, a lot of bugs, and a long walk to town whenever you need anything. The hosts also do not really speak any English, so the experience is going to be more challenging unless you speak a decent amount of Spanish. I loved my time there and I really felt at home!

From the start, we we felt at home at the lodge. Angel and Sandra were very welcoming and Sandra is a great cook. We had a fun time with the karaoke parties with other volunteers. The work was mostly gardening (planting, weeding, shoveling, etc.). They have lots of sheep and plants : cocoa trees, plantains, and many other things in the garden. The farm is also close to a pepper and vanilla farm that you can visit. The farm is quite isolated but 30-40mins away, there is the wonderful river, supermarkets, bakeries, waterfalls... We had a great two weeks here and made lots of friends

Este ha sido nuestro primer voluntariado y en modo duo. Pasamos 6 semanas con Angel y Sandra y no podríamos habernos sentido mejor acogidos haciéndonos sentir como en familia. Las tareas son flexibles y variadas. Los voluntarios ayudamos en la cocina y aprendemos nuevas y riquísimas recetas ticas. La comida es en general abundante y equilibrada. También hemos pasado tardes muy divertidas de karaoke, baile y fogatas. El alojamiento consta de dos cabañas y tres cuartos en total por lo que hay bastante privacidad. Recomendamos saber un poco de español a los futuros voluntarios.

Considero que no es un lugar adecuado para recibir a personas que van a colaborar. Mínimo tener una cama limpia y un espacio seguro. Las tareas no son complicadas y los horarios buenos. Decir que no hay internet y que no se avisó sobre esto. Hora y cuarto andando cada día para llegar al pueblo. Perfecto para amantes del silencio y la soledad.

I had the chance to spend 15 days with Sandra y Angel: I totally merged in their way of living, sharing and being alive. I am really grateful for the experience I had, being the only volunteer there made it even deeper. I'd definitely recommend this finca to the ones who want to share a truthful time spent in nature, tranquility and tica culture; you will learn something new everyday: geography, politics, food, yourself! Espero que todos los deseos y proyectos que tienen se hagan realidad algún día, estoy segura de que así será porque realmente sabes cómo hacer q las cosas sucedan!Un abrazo

This was my first volunteer experience and I loved it. Angel and Sandra are very kind and awesome hosts, who were very interested on my thoughts as well. The work was most of the time very easy but at some points it can be hard as well. I was able to improve my Spanish because they only speaking in spanish to you, which helps a lot. I would recommend this for everyone who loves the nature because the “city” is very far away. It was an awesome experience with many new impressions. ;)

This was my partner and I's first Worldpackers experience and we loved it! Although we speak very little Spanish we got to know Sandra and Aja very well over the two weeks we stayed with them. (And had lots of practice learning Spanish!) We were helping them build a new house and our projects varied from day to day. From painting shelves, digging holes, helping them move wood, and washing dishes, it was rewarding work where we felt like we were making an impact. The heat and humidity was an adjustment but we were given plenty of breaks and rest. On average we worked for about 3 hours a day.

I had troubles with my flights, which forced me to stay home in the end and never arrive there. But the communication and respect was definitly amazing. They were very kind and welcoming me for a next time, I hope I can make it there soon! :)
