Mi tiempo con Santi fue genial! la energía en este proyecto es increíble y muy tranquilo. Mientras aquí aprendí mucho sobre cómo vivir con sustentabilidad, cómo cocinar nuevo platos, cómo construir super adobes y finalmente cómo a compartir un espacio con los otros voluntarios :) te recomiendo este proyecto si quieres aprender sobre vivir mejor con la naturaleza, practicar español, y disfrutar tiempo con buen gente :p Santi y Lili son personas super chèvre y amable y hicieron una onda buena.

We had an amazing experience at Runachay, Santi felt more like a friend than a host. All the other volunteers we met were also amazing and we made friends for life. The place is extremely cosy and beautiful and we learned very valuable things such as cooking for many people, building with superadobe and other social leasons. We would 100% come back sometime :)

The project, the environment, and the atmosphere are truly something unique and beautiful. You can always choose the tasks you want to do each day, which gives a great sense of freedom and variety - and helps you gain diverse experience. The working hours are also really good. I especially loved working on the bio-construction! If you are looking to escape the noise of the city, to have a rural and peaceful experience in nature (along with limited wifi), gain experience in sustainable living and permaculture - this place is perfect for you. I genuinely enjoyed my time here!
