Rainforest respite

Spread the love

After an emotionally charged morning spent at the Sosua garbage dump, an afternoon in the Dominican rainforest offered a well-deserved break, as well as a great opportunity for some team bonding.

Thirty minutes from our resort, down the roughest road on the island, we reached our hike. We climbed along tranquil trails, across streams and slippery rocks and logs until we reached the falls. We then cooled off with a swim and were entertained by a local as he climbed up the waterfall and dove into the water below.
 
It was the perfect venue to share thoughts from our trip thus far, and to get to know one another better.
 
It was so great to have an afternoon to explore part of this beautiful island before our final push to complete the homes for our families.
