Teaching English in Manuel Antonio
by: Nathalie Lacroix-Maillette - CanadaProgram: Top-Rated Volunteer Abroad Programs in Latin AmericaThere are no words to express how much I enjoyed my experience. The location, the assignment, the support from Maximo NIvel before and during my stay, everything was perfect. This memorable experience will forever stay with me. I was somewhat apprehensive before leaving home since I was travelling solo for the first time. I met wonderful people along the way and safety was absolutely not an issue with some precaution. Thank you!
