and you just became one whit nature and yourself.

even is a long walk to the school , feel like you almost getting to Costa Rica borderline, the view when you get there is nice and peacefully.

are you think Walk was Bad :)

2007-12-17T14:34:00.000-05:00

OMG, material haves to be carrier by people and horses 30 -40 minutes walk.
we dont want the kids to do any o this but this is that kind of community that touch you.
in so many levels.
in my 5 years experiences volunteer i will say this is the community more comited to a project.
every single one of the community joint us.
they leave of what they plant (campesinos).
they decide to stop working in the fields to help build the school.
we want some help but we dont want then to sacrificed.
but they are Indian decent Tough and caring people .
so we feel we will ofend then if we dont aloud to give a hand.
here are the firts picture of material deliver to the Project.
