My Costa Rican Experience

Having spent the last few years feeling very restless and not sure in what direction my life was heading, I started researching voluntary work overseas but found the costs of 'gap year' companies extortionate. Delving deeper I found some superb projects, particularly Rancho Mastatal in Costa Rica, I emailed in an application for voluntary work and very luckily was offered a three month internship starting in January 2010. I am very excited but also feeling rather nervous, as I am sure I will be the oldest intern ever!!.....I will be 51 when I go and even though I am quite fit and strong, I just hope I will be able to keep up with the other interns. This is their web address http://www.ranchomastatal.com
This is my story and hopefully the start of not just one but other new experiences for me.

Waterfall


We had the day off on Sunday!! I was awake early and followed one of the trails to the waterfall....I will have to go again as the photographs of the actual waterfall are not that clear.
