Volunteer conditions:
To apply it is important to understand that you will be living in a Nature Reserve, so you will have to be willing to work in a wild place, exposed to the presence of poisonous animals and stinging plants. Communication may also be scarce for those who are not used to living outside urban areas, as you will only have internet signal at home.
Volunteering requires people who are proactive, tidy, clean, and willing to live with other people in shared rooms and work as a team, participating in the general tidiness of the common spaces.
Volunteering is free of charge for the participant and is not remunerated.
Accommodation at San Sebastian de la Selva Reserve is included.
It does not include transport to the Reserve or meals.
