Beautiful experience in the Ecuadorian Andes!

As a “digital nomad”, I have worked remotely and traveled around. But I had a desire to try something different and use my professional skills to help a local organization, while also getting the opportunity to immerse myself in a local community.

El Terreno was the perfect spot for volunteering my professional skills. I enjoyed the beautiful settings of Ecuador and meeting new people from around the world who came to intern and volunteer. The team at El Terreno was great to work with and made me feel like a valuable member and contributor.

They also had amazing WiFi that I was able to use to work on projects for my remote job during my free time!

If you did this all over again, what's one thing you would change?
In general, the way the interns and volunteers are organized and interacted with each other allows me to develop a pleasant atmosphere and therefore an enriching experience. On the other hand, I found the local people to be very friendly and charismatic.
