Where in Argentina will I work?
Your project will take place in Córdoba, the second-largest city in Argentina. This young and dynamic city is one of the friendliest in the country. Your animal care work will be divided between a veterinary clinic and a dog shelter. The clinic and the shelter are located 15 minutes from the centre of Córdoba.
Arrival airport
If you are going to work on this project, you should arrive at the Cordoba International Airport (COR) a member of our staff will be waiting to receive you.
Food and accommodation
You will stay with a host family in Córdoba. They will welcome you into their home and will always be willing to share their customs and learn about your culture. We believe that this is the best way to immerse yourself in the Argentine lifestyle and have a truly unique experience. Your room will be simple, but comfortable, clean and safe. The cost of the program includes three meals a day.
Leisure
Argentina is a vibrant South American country full of colours and cultural heritage. As well as contributing to worthwhile projects, travelling to Argentina with us means you’ll be able to explore this fascinating country. Spend the afternoon enjoying a coffee in Plaza San Martín, with its street artists and its iconic statue of General José de San Martín. You can take a weekend trip to the mountains. The surrounding nature is impressive and a horseback ride through the nature trails is also worthwhile. There are cultural experiences, such as the Evita Superior Museum of Fine Arts or the Teatro del Libertador General San Martín. You can also learn about the country’s history at local museums or visit the birthplace of Che Guevara. There will probably be other volunteers in Argentina, so you can explore on your own or with a group of volunteers from different projects.
