A gorgeous place to visit but unfortunately I didn't get much time to explore,the hours were poorly explained and I didn't get any days off. I understand my experience was different as Juliana had taken up a summer job just before I got there which meant by the time she returned from work I had already done more than five hours of work and I was still expected to continue to do more throughout the day.They had many guests which was a lovely opportunity to meet people from all over the world, it was great fun going to all of Juliana's performance and Kauê is super sweet kid and full of energy

Ocean had the challenging task to stay with us during the summer holidays with Kaue being at home most of the time and Juliana going to work every day. Despite these difficult circumstances, Ocean managed to have a wonderful time with Kaue and he enjoyed his time with Ocean immensily. Ocean is a very trustworthy and dedicated person. We highly recommend her.

Our stay was nice and we are glad that we could experience this. Kauê is very nice kid, but personally we think that the host should write more about him before the stay. He is very open hearted and can communicate well, but sometimes it was quite hard to manage his eating and living habits. Manu was welcoming and always had good advices for us about the surroundings. Sometimes the communication about our tasks was bit hard to understand so we needed to improvise and tried to catch up in our own way. Maya is a great company for walks! We are glad for the stuff we learnt, thank you:)

The home is a beautiful place surrounded by beautiful nature. For me it was the perfekt place to feel reconnected to nature by taking nice walks with Maya. Juliana, Manu and Kauê are a amazing family that made me feel very welcome in their home. The taskes for me were mainly to do household tasks and spend time with Kauê. I had a lot of freedom in managing my time. I really enjoyed my stay in the home and couldn't wish for a better first volunteer experience.

Zora was a great volunteer in our home, kind and charismatic being, always willing to collaborate in positive attitude. We enjoyed a lot having her at Cal Guerxo!

The home is a wonderful place. Volunteering brought me many stories and great moments. It's a great place to connect with nature and yourself. My routine was to keep the house organized and clean, wash clothes, cook food, play and help take Kauê to school. The hosts don't have well-defined tasks, or a period and amount of daily work time, many activities came up at the last minute, this caused different working hours during the days, for me this was a challenge but also a learning opportunity. It's a very interesting family. I am so grateful for the opportunity, learning and hospitality!

The home is a nice place for connecting with nature/ focusing on yourself. You have a lot of freedom when it comes to organising your tasks. We enjoyed supporting the family by cooking meals, cleaning, playing with Kauê and gardening. Juliana was always kind, willing to communicate with us and showed gratitude. Unfortunately, Manu avoided conversations with us. To approaches from us he reacted rejecting and unfriendly. According to that we felt uncomfortable. But that someone isn't even able to say goodbye properly at the end of living together for 4 weeks is already disrespectful.

My experience at the home was amazing. At the get-go I remember getting there at night and having a yummy welcome dinner which brought a lot of joy to my heart. I had the opportunity to get to know this incredible family where I could share about my culture and get to know theirs. I had really good moments playing with Kauê, having enriching talks at the table, enjoying a book at the chimney, going hiking with Maya (a fellow dog) and a lot more. The sustainable house is really cozy and its surrounding is breathtaking.

I had a wonderful experience with Emmanuel, Juliana and Kauê (and the wild and sweet Maya🐾)! It was a wonderful experience to be part of this family and to live in this sustainable and lovely house. I loved having the possibilities to create there and to share creativity and activities to decorate this home. They are very interesting people that brought me a lot. I learnt a lot about myself and the world thanks to the exchanges, the conversations and the practices. Thank you for the love !!! 🌞

Alicia was very interested in learning new things and became like a big sister for Kaue. We are grateful for all the beautiful painted bottles, the many "ojos de dios" and many other wonderful things she made with Kaue.
