San Ramon, Turrialba, Gandoca, Puerto Viejo, Fortuna, Arenal, Montezuma, Mal Pais, Granada, Manuel Antonio, Quepos, and Sarchi were absolutely amazing places to have spent my volunteer vacation. I feel like I saw the best of the best in my 7 weeks here. The only place I missed was Volcan Poas and I wish I had one last weekend to check that out, but more reason to return to Costa Rica someday.
La Escuela San Rafael is a great place to work. I easily got attached to all the students and love teaching English to them. I have decided to change my career to teach English as a foreign language teacher in another country. I was looking forward to working with a school that was a bit less fortunate; San Rafael has an English teacher and plenty of resources. A native speaker is always helpful, but I do wish I had been able to teach my own English class where they might not have a program. Still, I wouldn’t trade these past 7 weeks for anything.
Now to figure out how to relocate my family and friends to Costa Rica…
