How to travel and work in Central America?
One of the best ways to travel Central America is through a work exchange. For those that want to get to know the tropical climate and the diverse paradise of beaches on the continent, there is an option to exchange work for accommodation in countries like Costa Rica, Guatemala, Panama, or Jamaica. It's just a few hours of work in tasks like reception, cleaning or administration, in exchange for so many incredible experiences!
