I drove on my bike 🏍 and it's tough to get the community, there are taxis that will take you there for $15-$20. Besides that, the experience is great! Moi is awesome and his family/ friends are great as well and so helpful, my bike had one part damaged, they helped me fix it, I wouldn't have made it back without their help. The experience is not for everyone, you are literally inside the jungle, insects of all kind are everywhere. Bathroom is the jungle itself. Shower is the river, washer is the river as well, dryer is the air. There's wifi but little bit slow and limited.

Sin duda es una experiencia que recomiendo. El trabajo se hace muy llevadero, sobre todo cuando se hace en equipo. El contacto con la naturaleza, la gente de la comunidad, las costumbres, culturas te hace sumergirte totalmente en la energía del lugar. Es una experiencia que te cambia a muchos niveles. Moi es un genial anfitrión, al igual que su familia. Me siento muy agradecida por todo lo vivido y experimentado.

This position is for bioconstruction in Arajuno, while what I ended up doing was helping out in the school in Obepare, where Moi lives (about 1h from Arajuno). Despite previously asking twice, I was told the exact location only on the day of my arrival, when it was then too late to get to Obepare and I had to organise a last minute stay in Puyo. Overall, Moi didn't seem to care much about my stay there, so much so that at some point he left for Puyo without much explanation. After two days of him being gone, and without knowing when he would be back, I then decided to cut my stay short.

El voluntariado en la escuela de Obepare fué genial. La profesora es muy buena pero necesita ayuda para poder llevar a cabo una buena formación de los niños, ya que en el mismo aula comparten clase desde los 4 hasta los 11 años de edad, lo que hace dificil gestionarles el aprendizaje. Algo que no me gustó durante mi estancia allí, fué la falta compromiso, comunicación e implicación en este proyecto por parte del anfitrión. Ya que los voluntarios suelen gestionar cosas que no les corresponden. Si tienes iniciativa, seguro que podrás generar una experiencia muy bonita, la selva es maravillosa!

I had an incredible time during my stay in Obepare. The jungle has a lot to offer if you're open to new experiences, feeling out of your comfort zone and doing the best you can independent of the circumstances. Moi is a very interesting person but was not very present during my stay. The other volunteer and I were left in the house by ourselves a few times with limited communication with the hosts. The experience with the kids at the school was rich! The teacher is a very caring person! The school and the center of the community are 35 min walking from the house! Be prepared to walk a lot:)

Moi, Fiona, and Tito are friendly hosts. the place is deep in the jungle, very unique experience. beautiful nature. and there is still some wifi available to stay connected. spider monkeys fun to play with. it was great to see the community arajuno. an intact community living with very little money. lots of food was fried with vegetable oil :( the school and arajuno is a 35 minute walk away from where moi lives. so it can be a little hard to be at school regularly. I learned some permaculture but want to learn more.

The experience was extremely positive for my purposes. It was a great opportunity to experience the community without it being touristic and to learn about Waorani's culture. Moi knows many trails inside of the forest and share a lot of knowledge about their culture. Important to describe that beyond the work in the project to build the refuge, the volunteers needed to cook their food and wash all the dishes most part of the days. Also, I suggest to the volunteers confirm the day fee before going to ensure nothing has changed. Although that points, I totally suggest the experience!

The community Jungle is amazing! Lush vegetations, bird noises and an interesting community. I volunteered for two weeks, I learned about their indigenous culture as well as others, saw their speciality crafts, participated in a couple rituals and socialized with people from all over the world. We were a group of 6 volunteers at the beginning. Everyone was very nice and made an effort to speak in English since my Spanish is very weak. I do recommend you go if you're Spanish is good because the family doesn't speak English. Also make sure to confirm what project you'd like to work on.

Mi experiencia en la comunidad fue increíble, es un lugar hermoso, inmerso en la naturaleza y la familia de Moi es genial, los adoro. El trabajo en la escuela fue arduo, pero demasiado gratificante y lo recomiendo 100%. Ojalá que si haces este voluntariado puedas quedarte un mes completo para generar cambios reales en el nivel educativo, como fue en mi caso. Siento que Moi debería estar más presente en todo el proceso, así como hacer coordinación previa con la profesora, comentar a los voluntarios cuáles son las problemáticas a nivel de escuela, etc. Facilitar que tu trabajo sea más organizado

Mi experiencia en la comunidad fue realmente buena, Moi es un gran anfitrión que siempre está dispuesto a explicarte cosas y contar historias. Lastimosamente me quedé muy poco tiempo pero fue suficiente para conectar con la selva y aprender mucho de la cultura local, definitivamente volvería y lo recomiendo a quienes buscan un respiro de la ciudad y conectar con la naturaleza.
