The work is really hard but you learn a lot. The hotel is located in a calm and rural environment and the city is charming. The food was great and the volunteers shared tasks and moments. Mauro and Jesi are really good hosts and they do all they can to create a good experience for the volunteers.

Voluntariar en Calihu fue una experiencia hermosa, desde que llegue los Jesi y Mauro me hicieron sentir parte de la familia, fueron muy flexibles con los horarios y super atentos en cada momento. Las instalaciones estan en perfectas condiciones y son muy comodas, habitacion con calefaccion, cocina equipada, alimentos para cocinarte. El lugar es un paraiso a unos minutos del centro, ellos siempre me ofrecieron ir con ellos o tambien te brindan bicis como transporte. Las tareas van desde ayudar en la jardineria, al mantenimiento de las cosas. Sin dudas un hermoso voluntariado!

Mi paso por el alojamiento fue muy grata, desarrolle nuevas habilidades, entablé muy buena amistad con los voluntarios y Mauro con Jessica te hacen sentir muy cómodo. Las labores son diferentes cada día y pueden ser pesadas dependiendo del clima pero puedes comunicarlo a Jessica y Mauro y entenderán. Gracias el alojamiento ! Extrañare la calma de colonia y a las mascotas que saludaban todos los días! Estoy seguro que este proyecto será un éxito sino es que ya lo es.

Aprendizado para toda vida. Uma maneira de viver que dá gosto e assim se passou os dias no eco lodge. Jessi e Mauro são os melhores amigos que um viajante poderia ter. O trabalho é harmônico e dinâmico, temos mascotes também no eco lodge que se chama Captain, Tiki, Cokie e Brisa, 2 cachorros e 2 gatos! Um dia espero revê-los meus amigos; Viva a família o eco lodge ahibaaaa.

O projeto o eco lodge me ensinou muito em vários sentidos. Lidar com situações do meu eu interior e aprender sobre técnicas bioconstrutivas somaram muito no desenvolver da minha viagem. Jesi e Mauro são pessoas incríveis, com um coração enorme e sempre dispostos a ajudar ou auxiliar no que for necessário. Capitan e Tiqui são doçuras em forma de cachorros, e Brisa e Cookie são os felinos mais amorosos que vivem lá. O restaurante, já pronto, tem uma cozinha muito bem equipada onde eu e meu companheiro cozinhamos todos os dias para o staff. Vida longa ao o eco lodge. Ahow
