You must take care of your own travel, insurance, and personal expenses - in keeping with our policy of program affordability.
Payment is due on the first day of arrival, along with photocopying of passport, travel insurance and emergency contact numbers.
Spanish lessons are one on one (personnal) not in groups becuase we consider that is very difficult that volunteers have the same level but we can arrenge groups if the volunteers require.
Volunteers who want to arrenge their own lodging can volunteer with us after an evaluation of the lodging and the payment of a special fee.
