A perfect experience for a first solo trip !

February 11, 2026by: Sofia Carpentier - Canada

Program: English Teaching Program in Public Schools

This trip was an unforgettable experience that thought me the foundation on how to travel solo, while still being supported and accompanied throughout the whole project by the staff of the organization. They were always available to answer my questions and to help me prepare the tours I wanted to do on the weekends. This allowed me to enjoy to the max my trip and visit as much places in Ecuador as I could. They also organized activities with all the volunteers like salsa and bachata classes which was very funny and it is a great way to meet new people! I lived in Monika’s home with her family and I couldn’t have asked for a better host. She was super welcoming and It felt like home immediately. The food was delicious and the rooms were super comfortable. It was truly an amazing experience and i wished i could have stayed longer !

One of the best experiences with Simon Bolivar Spanish School.

Program: Spanish Learning Program

Everyone here was so warm and welcoming. I learned a lot taking spanish classes and also doing medical volunteering. My Spanish has improved a lot after taking classes here. I really enjoyed doing activities with the other volunteers and staff. I am going to miss everyone here. Thank you to the employees of this organization, my experience in Ecuador would not have been the same without you. I highly recommend them.

A desire to learn Spanish and be able to see a part of the world and experience a culture and life philosophy different from my own. My hope always was to grow as a human being and to be able to broaden my horizon and learn from people I usually wouldn't have crossed paths with. To live close to a family and contribute to a project with passionate locals had been a dream of mine for a long time.
