I got the opportunity to volunteer with the project. I learned about recycling and making handicrafts in a warehouse, The tasks are easy, I had my place to sleep, a kitchen to prepare my food, nice bathroom and shower, also they let me use a bicycle to move in the island. Emilio, my host is an open mind person, easy communication. I enjoy hanging out with Emilio, Belen and Ricardo. Thank you the project!!

We had a great time during our stay with Emilio. We learned about the lionfish, an invasive species in bocas, and we made jewelry out of its fins. There were a few other tasks that were easy and the working hours were fair and quite flexible! You sleep in a warehouse next to the airport, but you could always take the bike to bocas town, which was like a 3 minute ride :)

We really enjoyed our time volunteering at the project! Making jewelry and learning about different sustainable projects was fun and meaningful. You get the opportunity of living on a carribean island in exchange for really fair work hours and tasks. Emilio is a great host and very passionate about his project. As long as you stick to house rules, the energy is nice and welcoming. We would for sure recommend this project!

I learned a lot about recycling and the problems that the lionfish causes in this part of the ocean. The work was very variable and fun. You learn about jewelry making and get to explore the islands because you have a lot of free time. You can spend the day at the beach or go take a walk through the islands. The location is a bit further away from the city center but you can reach it easily and fast by bike.

The experience at the project was really nice. You can see that Emilio is really interested in environmental topics, and he has a lot of ideas. He is very sociable and open-minded. I learned interesting facts about the invasive lionfish, the creation of jewelery and plastic pollution in Bocas del Toro. We brainstormed about general ideas and my task was to create design sketches for the website of the project. I could manage my own working hours. The accommodation is very basic and rustic, but there is plenty to do and see, and you can explore Bocas by bike.

Mi experiencia en la isla a sido francamente enriquecedora. Puedes conocer zonas realmente paradisíacas en distintas islas que forman el archipiélago. El ambiente te cautiva. Con el equipo el proyeto hemos participado, desde limpieza de playas, pesca submarina, tours por distintas islas, cenas, bailes, eventos.. En fin una familia con Emilio que hace que tu estancia sea agradable y sobre todo enriquecedora a nivel concienciación con el medio.

The work was very flexible, interesting and fun (especially if you love some creativity: making jewellery from the fins of the lion fish which is an invasive species), leaving a lot of time to explore the rest of Bocas! Emilio is a great host who will always help you if you need anything! I would highly recommend:))

Mis semanas en Bocas del Toro fueron de las mejores de mi vida. Conocí a personas apasionadas e increíbles, y la Bodega se convirtió en un hogar. Pero, más que nada, fue Emilio quien hizo que esta experiencia fuera inolvidable. Su calidez, generosidad y gran corazón dejan huella en todos los que entran en su vida. Compartimos momentos que atesoro: bailando, explorando, limpiando playas, compartiendo comidas y simplemente disfrutando juntos. Agradezco a Emilio por su amabilidad, su humor y su dedicación a cuidar el planeta. Lo extraño mucho!

I loved my experience here, Emilio is a great host and just having two other volunteers meant we formed a close community :) it was an amazing way to learn more about the islands and projects, get to contribute something valuable and gain varied skills and experiences. While I was there we did a beach clean up on another island and a school workshop, as well as making and selling jewellery, which I really enjoyed! The space is basic but comfortable and became a home away from home, cooking and sharing meals together. Having bikes to go around the island on was also great!
