Daniel and his family approach their project with all their heart, often they just don't have enough time for a lot. And they really need help. I recommend. Just keep in mind that there will be little food, and if you are used to coffee or large portions, then count on yourself, buy more food. The family is very friendly and open to communication. You will be into the real world of Guatemala. I recommend.

It was an immense pleasure to work with Daniel's daughters Lisbeth and Leila. They made me feel welcome and showed me around the school. The students are 15-21 year old Mayan girls from local communities that are eager to learn and very inquisitive. It was a joy to contribute to their language education and a very rewarding time spent at San Juan! A couple of things that you should be prepared for when volunteering here. The nights get very cold so be sure to bring thermals to make sure you don't wake from the cold at night. The room they provide get frosty (even for a Dutch girl like me).

Yes friend, thank you for your support in school painting, in English classes, in psychological support for the girls.
God bless you, you sing impressively. We are looking for money to build the volunteer house.

Volunteering here was a great experience! Definitely a wonderful way to be immersed in local culture and languages! The students at the school are all so eager to learn which makes teaching very rewarding. The store was also great because you get to really see how the textiles are made and can be up close with the weaving process. I would definitely recommend to anyone that is looking for a deep cultural immersion with community impact!

Overall, it was a good and immersive experience; you can tell that the family that runs the association cares about girls' education and sustainable tourism promotion. The facilities are simple but provide the minimum for an excellent short stay. I was glad to help them kickstart their Instagram account, and I hope future volunteers can continue the social media work since it is critical to the success of the NGO.

I stayed one week with Daniel. The work was to paint the walls of the classrooms and to wash the dishes, it wasn't really difficult and it was only in the morning. Something you need to know before volunteering here is the cold at night with just a little blanket (but Daniel told me it is in his project to build a house for the volunteers). I would suggest asking questions about what will be your experience to Daniel before coming and to give ideas about what you want to do.
