Cloud Forest was incredible

by: Victoria Caitlin EvansProgram: Costa Rica - Sustainable Organic Coffee Farming

The mountains of Monteverde and Santa Elena are beautiful, and the climate in August was great. We always had afternoons free, so having to time to explore the nearby unique Cloud Forest was incredible and so other fun activities. The public transportation was difficult to figure out but having the local support team and their travel agency made everything easier. I got to do more than I thought in the country and loved meeting all the other volunteers and host families.
