If u like to close to the nature, there is a beautiful Andes mountains view can watch and it changes ever day. Felipe and others workers and volunteers are nice, even I can not really speak Spanish, still patiently communicated with google translate! However, there is no hot shower and irregular water and power outages, could be a little bit hard during the winter time, but I think this is something part of mountain life, you just need to get used to it! After that you will feel yourself as a soldier, at least know how to make a fire!

Conheci pessoas que vou levar pra sempre em meu coração, foi incrível poder conhecer Felipe, o dono do e o Carlos, um brasileiro que trabalha lá, pessoas muito especiais. Sem contar Lindsay e Coni que me ajudaram muito, obrigado a cada um. ❤️

Foi meu primeiro voluntariado e foi uma ótimo experiência. O anfitrião, Felipe sempre muito prestativo e comunicativo, a Kimberly sempre muito comprometida e tive a sorte de conhecer o Carlos, um brasileiro que trabalha lá super gente fina. Me conectei com tudo muito rapidamente, foi excelente.

Mi experiencia en the host Montaña fue un grato desafío para salir de mi zona de confort y disfrutar plenamente la naturaleza. Me voy muy agradecida con Carlos, Kim y Felipe que ante los inconvenientes que fueron sucediendo siempre estuvieron atentos y predispuestos a ayudar. Se brinda una canasta de alimentos que es muy variada, además de que Felipe siempre está consultando qué falta para complementar. El horario de inicio de trabajo es muy flexible y las tareas son variadas y acordes a la capacidad física de cada uno. Literalmente para desconectarse y descansar :)
