I must begin by saying I didn’t take this tour, but read all that is including and if you are afraid of doing this on your own this is a very good option with all included! I am sharing some of my pictures of the town and a school with volunteers that teach English! I humbly suggest you bring notebooks to give personally to the children here to motivate them to continue learning another language!! If you seem them through their eyes you will see How Happy they All are and how fortunate to live so in Community with Nature! Something we all want and cherish! #planforamiracle #lawofattractionphotos follow my travels around the world here, on You Tube and Facebook under this same name Upekkhapr Sylvia Fernandez and Start Living the Life You Were Born To Live!
