I had such an amazing experience with Give volunteers. I had my first Give trip this past spring break from March 14th through the 21st in Costa Rica. The trip was amazing and I had such a beautiful experience with everything my group and I got to do and everyone worked so well together. My guides were amazing! I loved working in the garden and helping kids with their English, going to a local restaurant and cabins called Kaniki to speak Spanish with this wonderful lady named Rita (I got to pet the cat and big, sweet dog too), and the food was delicious not to mention really fresh and healthy. By the end of the trip, our group had cried together a number of times, and we are like family now. We will totally be seeing one another in the near future, just a matter of when. I cried tears of joy on the plane home as the memories from the trip played through my mind. I felt like I made a difference, and that feeling has carried over into my motivations to make a difference back home :)

Jorge Loria Zuñiga was a phenomenal tour guide. He went above and beyond to make our trip an unforgettable time. He is incredible at spotting birds, snakes, lizards, sloths, monkeys, and on on with the rich biodiversity that Costa Rica offers. This is the perfect job for this man, the love for his country and what he does shines through everyday, gifting to his entire group the magic that is offered in the beautiful land. Fantastic restaurant recommendations and making you feel like family. We were quite please with wingbuddy, the hotel selections were great. Most of them were small, my husband and I didn't mind this as we were just sleeping in them, we were wanting to be outside and hike as much as possible. The extra excursions may be worth it to add on prior to getting there. All in all the tour was planned well with adequate time in each place. You see so much of the country with this tour. We were quite lucky to have a great group that we all got along well with eachother. Again Jorge with costa rica hidden treasures (wingbuddy Im assuming contracts through this tour company) was the heart of this trip going so splendidly.
