Volunteer in GuatemalaAmeriSpan offers Volunteer placements in GuatemalaGUATEMALA is recognized as the cultural center of the pre-discovered New World. As the origin of the mysterious Mayan Civilization and still predominantly indigenous, the country offers some of the continent’s richest folklore. The cultural blend of the indigenous, Spanish and African peoples can be seen in many aspects of daily life. Ancient rituals are intertwined with Christianity. Moreover, there is an abundance of high quality, low-priced handmade goods.Volunteers have the opportunity of experiencing this country of extremes from a very intimate point of view.
