In the spring of this year, I participated in a volunteer trip to Costa Rica with a program called Dream Volunteers. I was one of ten volunteers who spent a week in the Dota region of Costa Rica. Our objectives were to beautify an elementary school in the small village of San Pedro de Dota and to educate the local children on environmental protection practices.

 

I would highly recommend you consider joining Dream Volunteers on one of their trips. In addition to Costa Rica, they run trips in Guatemala, India and Ghana with Vietnam soon to come. Logistically, they are incredibly buttoned up. The trips are well-organized, meaningful and unlike any other vacation you’ve ever taken. Don’t just travel abroad, experience the people and the culture in the most authentic way possible.
