It has been a very good stay. I loved the work I had to do, it was something very calm and quick to do; rather than working I would describe it as "taking care of your horses" and it is literally like that. We have a lot of free time so I recommend taking a book or once there, walking around and discovering the surroundings. Mariana is very friendly, she will always do her best for you and will give you everything you need during your stay. Pedro has taught me many things that I didn't know I would learn in 10 days, what I liked most about him is his patience.

My experience at the farm was fantastic! I was staying for 1,5 months and it was a very special time, as this was my first Worldpacker stay. Mariana and Pedro are such warm and kind souls, with a big heart for animals and people. They always made me feel welcomed, included and supported! They will always make sure that you have everything you need and you feel that they truly care. When I had an injury on my toes, they took it very seriously and took me to the hospital. Both are incredible hard workers who are well organised, dedicated and a lot of fun! Big thank you to Mariana, Pedro and Lisa

Thank you very much for a wonderful experience! I really enjoyed my stay. Everyone is very friendly and I loved spending time with the other volunteer, the dogs and horses. Mariana would regularly give us delicious food, and Pedro and Lise would take us out on rides and other trips as well. The location is extremely remote and extremely beautiful and the caravan we stayed in was cozy as well. If you are thinking of applying to this position, make sure you are prepared to live in an extremely remote place, are independent and proactive as you need to be responsible for entertaining yourself :)

I had the best experience visiting here! Mariana and Pedro welcomed me very warmly, always helped and answered all my questions—everything was very well organized and went smoothly. The work here was definitely not hard, and I also had plenty of free time to enjoy the stunning nature surrounding this place. If you are a nature and animal lover, I highly recommend coming here! A big thank you to Mariana and Pedro—sending my best wishes! I really hope I'll get the chance to come back!

I had a wonderful experience. Pedro and Mariana are very kind and attentive, always making sure you're comfortable. The work is simple, well explained, and the hours are respected, leaving you with plenty of free time to relax and explore. The caravan is cozy, warm and well-equipped, surrounded by beautiful scenery, animals, hiking trails, and even waterfalls. The horses are very well taken care of, and I learned a lot about them during my stay—even got to enjoy a riding lesson. 🥰

I had a lovely time Volunteering with Marianna and Pedro at their home. The working hours are well respected and the work is very manageable. The horses are vibrant with different personalities. The area is quiet but beautiful with lots of hidden gems. I'd definitely recommend this experience if you love horses, nature and don't mind being alone!

My experience was generally alright. When I arrived the weather was bad and the van was poorly insulated resulting in wet bedding. I spent the first night on the couch inside the house. Due to the weather I couldn't do much for a few days but it improved later allowing me to take a riding lesson from Pedro. The other volunteer had left early so I was alone and didn't feel involved in the daily life of others. I had hoped for more inclusion given the circumstances. These things led me to leave after one week instead of staying two. The work with the horses was enjoyable, and the area is scenic.

Our schedule is set so there are always two volunteers, but due to others leaving early for selfish reasons, your stay was already affected. Sadly, your early departure also left the next volunteer alone, continuing the issue. We ask volunteers to consider the impact of their decisions, because this is what happens in real life , our own decisions can affect negatively other people.. We're glad you enjoyed the horses and scenery. Best wishes.

My experience at the farm was pretty good. The girl who was supposed to be there with me (for 2 weeks) left because of a family emergency. That definitely changed the whole experience. The weather was bad most of the time, which made me campervan bound. I felt pretty lonely and not included in what Mariana, Pedro and Lise were doing. I had expected a more inclusive environment as I was all alone. The work was easy for me, only about 3-4hrs a day. You can definitely explore the area but if it rains or snows of course that's harder to do. I would recommend if it's summer and with someone.

We understand that the departure of the other volunteer influenced your stay- We aim to have two volunteers at a time to ensure better experiences. Regarding your feeling of not being included, we truly value each volunteer’s individuality therefore we create space for people to approach us and express their needs. At the same time, we try not to overwhelm anyone and allow room for rest and personal time, which can sometimes be interpreted differently depending on expectations.

I felt very comfortable, Mariana always made sure we didn't lack anything and you could always talk to her if you wanted something or had any other problems. You live in a cozy caravan, which can get very cold in the evenings, but you have enough blankets to cover yourself. The working hours are very fair and the work is exciting but not challenging. You live very far out in nature, but if you love nature and horses, then this is the perfect place for you. I can recommend this experience 100%.
