June 29, 2026by: Diana Borro - LithuaniaProgram: Cultural Exchange Through Volunteering in Italy/Colombia
I stayed with a family in Marinilla, eating local food and learning the local language. We went to schools in the countryside to teach children English and other subjects, spent time with older people and visited Medellin, Guatape, La Piedra de El Penol and more!

What will I get out of Sendas?
An opportunity to make a change for the locals and potentially lifelong friendships with the other volunteers. Since the beginning of the program, many have been staying in touch and gone to visit each other to the other side of the world. You'll come out much richer than before in experiences and knowledge of new cultures and ways of living :)
