Estar aquí es una oportunidad muy maravillosa para mí, me gusta la manera en que se desarrolla el trabajo, lo ordenado que se puede ser aquí, la comida deliciosa que recibimos y la gente con la que se puede llegar a interactuar.. Veo que es un proyecto interesante que aún se puede potenciar mucho más, aplicando la Permacultura de una manera aún más radical Gracias por recibirme de esa manera tan agradable!

Mizque es un lugar que vale la pena visitar, sumado a eso el espacio que tiene Simon es aún mejor! El trabajo es variado y activo. Él es paciente y le gusta enseñar. Para llegar al pueblo desde la casa no se camina más de 15min, hay muchas actividades para hacer en el tiempo libre en la naturaleza. La comida es un plus! Es fresca, deliciososa y nutritiva. Nos tomamos turnos para cocinar también pero Jessica hace la mejor comida! Les agradezco mucho y ya quiero volver

La experiencia con Simon y Jessica fue increíble. Son personas amables, divertidas y muy dedicadas, en todo momento nos sentimos arropadas. Jessica cocina como una diosa con todos los productos de la huerta de la propiedad. Además, con ella aprendimos el 'saludos al sol' de Yoga que ahora incorporamos en nuestra rutina de viaje. Durante el marco del voluntariado Simon nos enseñó diferentes cosas relacionadas con el mantenimiento de la propiedad y el cultivo de la tierra. Las horas de trabajo eran más que perfectas Para rematar la experiencia Jessica y Simon nos invitaron a una BODA BOLIVIANA

El tiempo pasado en el Centro de Retiro de Permacultura fue suficiente para aprender diferentes técnicas de permacultura, bioconstrucion y más a través del curso que ofrecen y de las horas de voluntariado. Simon ha sido un excelente anfitrión, siempre dispuesto a aceptar nuestras peticiones y opiniones y su compañera Jessica le acompaña a su ritmo.El Centro está situado en una zona apartada, lejos del ruido de la ciudad. Aquí pudimos disfrutar de una comida excelente, abundante, vegetariana y en su mayor parte cultivada localmente.No tengo mas espacio para escribir mas pero lo recomendamos.

I had a great time at Simon's and Jessica's place! The working time was very reasonable and Simon ensured, that the tasks don't become repetetive or boring. On top, Simon took the time to explain the why and what while giving practical advice, making this voluneering a great experience for learning about various topics: gardening, permaculture, animals and most of all practical tipps and tricks for handywork and life on a farm. I can only recommend visiting them and will give a final advice to those of you who do: Working as a team to win against Simon in Monopoly is a valid strategy. Thanks:)

I stayed 2 weeks with Simon and Jessica in the Center. They are a lovely family enjoying simple life in the nature. Work was diverse like paintaing, wood construction, planting, gardening, feeding animals, cooking... Simon is patient and happy to teach you. Lots of break to relax, enjoy homemade fresh ginger beer and play games. Food was delicious and fresh from the garden or local market. The place is beautiful and comfortable, surrounded by mountains and close to the center. Amazing stay! Enjoy!

We had a great time learning about permaculture farming. We were up around 7am each morning to feed animals and and eat breakfast together. Building, weeding, painting were some tasks with homemade kombucha breaks around 11am, lunch around 12:30 and then finished for the day unless on evening animal or dinner duty. The hosts were great and super welcoming, the pets are lovely and time explore the region. Card games together were a common things and the food we ate was great. We really enjoyed the experience!

Staying at the Center was an amazing experience, Simon and Jessica provided amazing support and were extremely welcoming, something which was very important to me as this was my first volunteering experience. During my time here I learnt many useful life skills such as plumbing, electrical work, welding and roofing. The food was also very good, with a wide variety of types of meals. In addition to how nice the actual volunteer site is, the town is very close to the farm and is full of very friendly people. Thank you Simon and Jessica for providing me with such an amazing experience!

writing Daniels review here as unfortunately we didn't get to it in time to publish the normal way.
Daniel was with us for close to 4 months. During that time he was up for helping with all asked of him and saying yes to every opportunity to try new things like entering a triathlon when he hadn't ridden a bike much before. We greatly appreciated his help and enjoyed having him around. Highly recommended.

A wonderful welcoming experience in a beautiful setting. Simon and Jessica were absolutely amazing and we had fun completing projects with the other volunteers. Gianni and I had an amazing time and we would 100% recommend this experience to other volunteers.

We had a fantastic week doing the internship at the Center Farm in Mizque! This internship was a very rich and rewarding experience, we got to learn so many hands-on skills including welding, woodworking, metalworking, plumbing, and gardening. It was amazing to be involved in such a wide variety of projects and to gain practical experience in each of them. A huge thank you to Simon and Jessica for sharing your knowledge, your space, and your vision with us. We highly recommend the Center to anyone looking to learn and contribute in a meaningful way!
