My experience at the animal shelter project was very intensive; I learned a lot about the region, about the lifestyle of the people and about the project itself. I learned a lot of technical skills, how to work under basic circumstances, agriculture and nature, and the cultural. Most of my tasks involved construction and maintenance, education/guiding, and animal care.
My best experiences were: meeting guides, professors and people of the region; caring for wild animals; living like people live there; and above all the very friendly atmosphere and welcome from César, his family, and the volunteers.
