  Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

  They could learn about differences between people.
  Our staff is composed of people from multiple nationalities, not only from Argentina. We believe that cultural exchange is very important for all people, from any country, race, creed or gender. We try to always respect the customs of each one in order to be able to live in harmony and make this world a little more kind. Most of the volunteers speak 2 languages, at this moment the most handled are Spanish, English and French. But we are open to learning and teaching the languages ​​that each one handles.
  Almost every day we eat together, often typical foods of our country, but that depends a lot on who cooks. We love talking about almost any topic, prevailing the political and social issues that cross us.
