Volontariato in Costa Rica

Meicel has been working in kitchens most of her life and is a very talented cook. She is always happy to provide something special or different to the volunteers and is always around to help out if a volunteer has a problem or just wants a chat.

Oscar previously worked at Barra Honda for 8 years as a cave guide. Since March 2009 he has been working directly with Projects Abroad in the park. With his amazing local knowledge of the park he is able to answer any questions you may have. He also knows the people in the surrounding area very well, so is always helpful in organising work and trips out of the park.
