Picturesque and vibrant Costa Rica has something for the adventurer in everyone. While smaller than West Virginia, Costa Rica offers fascinating opportunities at every turn. Whatever your interests-eco-tourism, bird watching, adventure, rafting, golf, or just relaxing on the white sands of an unspoiled tropical beach-you'll find thrilling pastimes in this tropical and secure paradise. Rustic Volunteer Travel’s volunteer and travel program in Costa Rica offers you unique opportunities to explore this great country while serving kids, poor communities, and women's groups. Rustic Volunteer Travel invites you to join the Costa Rica volunteer Program, get free Spanish lessons, and a rich volunteer abroad experience.
The gap between the rich and poor is growing. Poor, rural children are falling behind their rich counterparts in the cities because the schools lack qualified teachers.
