How do you assess the services of RCDP ?

I interacted with two staff from RCDP. They were both really helpful and responded to my e-mails promptly. The program website is also very thorough and easy to navigate. The service they provide as an organization for volunteering abroad was satisfactory and as promised.

Please evaluate the support, meal and accommodation we received during the program

While in the country, I received support from my host family and the staff at the lodge we were volunteering with. Although there were barriers to communication due to language differences (I speak English and have no knowledge of Spanish). I was able to get by though through the help of other volunteers. Meals were delicious though even with second helpings they were not enough considering the amount of physical labour we were doing. I was very happy with the accommodations as well. Everything was very authentic.

Please review/evaluate your overall experience of volunteering with RCDP

Overall, I had a very unique experience with RCDP. I had a lot of fun, learned a lot and satisfied my desire to see another part of the world while helping others. I would definitely go through RCDP again to volunteer abroad.
