Teaching English in Manuel Antonio
March 03, 2026by: Brigitte Lachance - CanadaProgram: IVHQ English Teaching in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica
My volunteer experience with IVHQ in Manuel Antonio was fabulous. As a young retireree, my goal is to travel with a purpose and this experience was what I hoped for. I felt that IVHQ prepared me well to go to a developing country and the warm and respectful welcome of the Costaricains exceeded my expectations. Pura Vida!



Great experience for senior woman traveling alone
March 02, 2026by: Pamela Flynn - United StatesProgram: Worlds #1 Volunteer Programs. 40+ Countries from $20/day!
IVHQ was very easy to work with, from start to finish. As a senior woman traveling alone, I felt well taken care of. They picked me up from the airport, and transported me to my homestay. I stayed with a lovely family, and felt very safe and welcomed in their home. I was shown how to get to my job at a school teaching English, and they checked on me several times throughout the week. Their office was centrally located in downtown, open 7 days a week, and was a meeting point for other volunteers. After two weeks, I was picked up from my homestay and taken to the airport. I never felt more taken care of in all my life! Thank you IVHQ!!
My IVHQ Morocco Experience: Confidence in Childcare
February 25, 2026by: Ludwig Fisch - CanadaProgram: Volunteer in Childcare in Morocco
IVHQ offered me all the support I needed for the build up to my trip. Any questions or concerns I might have had about my particular program were answered promptly and with great detail. Everything about my program was laid out perfectly and I felt incredibly confident at the start date of my program. Will 1000% be doing another project through them! Visiting Morocco was a new experience to me and I have never felt safer and more capable of my abilities than with IVHQ. I highly recommend anyone considering the programs offered by the company to register. It is an experience like no other!

I love to travel and, specifically traveling abroad, as a way to broaden my cultural awareness. As I am usually traveling with friends or family, I was looking for a location that would make a good, first solo trip and opportunity to challenge myself socially, as well.
