Chacras of Buenos Aires Ecological conservation Program

The Road 2 Argentina people are amazing, they treated me like one of their good friends that came to visit argentina by showing me the correct places to buy staff and the best way to travel around. I would have been very lost without their help, they made an entirely different country feel like home. My program placement was perfect, im a biology major going to be a senior next year and this placement helped me achieve college credits with my school. i had the opportunity to work first hand with the processing of both organic and inorganic products. with the organic matter we used aerobic techniques to produce composts and fertile soil for people in financial need to be able to grow their own food. with the inorganic products, we builded houses and schools in the region of La Plata, which ironically does not have plata. The joy of kids and parents when we all help build a school for them is astonishing. when i got out of work, i knew i always have other volunteer in my same scenario but in different programs i could go out with and relate my story. i LOVE argentina and i cannot wait to come back.
