In DF the girls and I stayed at La casa de los amigos, which is a Quaker house thats mission is instilled in international-cultural understanding, respect, peace, and engagement. They are focused on the enjoyment and celebration of community. Many other foreigners were there. The house is now mainly a hostel, which also is a home to a couple of refugees. The initial purpose of the house (when it started 52 years ago) was to be a safe space for refugees. It has definitely got some human rights roots.
I even made some MN connections while I was there!
Now I am keeping it in mind to go back there and be a volunteer in the future.
DF has SO much to experience and I had just begun.
