i recently finished volunteering for 3 months with a non profit protecting sea turtles in costa rica, , and i really want to spread the word. Working with La Tortuga Feliz was definitely one of the most rewarding experience of my life. my daily activities included beach patrolling and hatchery work. Living conditions were basic as expected, however the amazing food was a welcome surprise. The rewards not only consisted of the opportunity to bond with a diverse group of people but also to actively participate in an organisation that truly helps both the marine wildlife and the local community. If anyone is interested in CHEAP voluntary work in central/south America, I couldnt recommend LTF more.
