GVI under 18s volunteer and construction project Costa Rica

I had the most amazing two weeks in Costa Rica, which was packed with new experiences! We spent the first week volunteering making sidewalks for a community in Quepos which was a great way to get to know all of the new people and the community were really welcoming. It would have been great if I had known a little more Spanish to speak to the locals more but the GVI staff were a great help with overcoming the language barrier. By the end of the week we had all become close as a group and were able to feel like we made a really positive impact. The second week was adventure week which was so much fun. We were able to go white water rafting, canyoning, hiking, surfing and so much more. GVI was a fantastic way to make lifelong friends whilst also contributing to their vital projects. I would highly recomend GVI and I cant wait to volunteer with them again in the future!
