Description

Who are we?

We are a passionate group made up of locals and international people. Combined, we have a lifetime of experience and knowledge about Nature. Whether it be young or old, growing up in the region, or having studied in an academic setting, we all have one thing in common - passionately living and working to sustain a close relationship to the Earth in order to protect it.

Brisa and Esteban are the Founders - a Tico-Canadian couple, passionate about animals and the environment. Brisa is an Artist, Art-Eco Therapist, and Educator. Esteban is an Artist as well, often drawing on his Indigenous roots to preserve the tradition of handmade arts and crafts. He has been living with the sea turtles all his life. In 2020 they developed Rascarey, a non-profit organization for the conservation of sea turtles and the environment. Their intention in the project is to (re)connect people  to Nature. They  created Rascarey with a mission in mind (and heart!) - to have a space in the lush Costa Rican Jungle where like-minded individuals can come to help the sea turtles and environmental causes. As well as to exchange cultural perspectives and so that all can learn, heal, and grow within the experience.

Rascarey rocks: a mix of enjoyable outdoor work, natural paradise, and social harmony. Our one-month stay at Rascarey was my very first volunteering experience, and it truly couldn't have been more fulfilling. Why? Here we go: THE PLACE: to put it simple, it's just paradise for nature lovers. ..
It was a beautiful experience staying at Rascarey. It is one of the most spectacularly naturally beautiful locations I’ve ever travelled to and the sea turtle conservation project is so special. I was able to be a apart of 5 turtle releases as well as the process of monitoring and recording the ...

2021 at Sea Turtle and Environmental Conservation

I arrived on this place, called Rascarey. Far away from everything. From all the facilities which I was used to. It's a place which is very far away from my reality, from what my eyes are used to see, from what my nose was used to smell, from what my hands were used to feel. It's a place where you ...
