Hi James,

Glad you enjoyed the post! I think the Spanish classes in conjunction with volunteering would be a great way to go. You should also hit up Matador’s BsAs focus page for your next trip:http://matadornetwork.com/focus/buenos-aires/

Thanks for the informative post. I am really looking forward to getting back to BsAs and I will definitely utilize one of these. 20 hours of spanish classes while volunteering sounds like a rewarding opportunity.

I’ve been vounteering at Conviven on and off for over a year. It’s a really worthwhile place. This is a project that’s organized at Conviven:

THANK YOU for this. I’ve been looking for a roundup like this for ages. Any you recommend in particular? Do you know what kind of fees Voluntario Global might charge?
