Live an amazing off-grid experience close to the sea!

The finca is a beautiful corner of the earth surrounded by amazing scenery. Chris is a nice guy full of interesting stories, insights on life and also a great cook! Work was varied. We mainly did construction, gardening, painting & some cleaning. The hours were always respected and the work/free time balance is perfect. You get lots of time to explore, relax, have privacy if that's what you want but also to socialise too. Nice chickens and cats, cosy accommodation and I am leaving with more knowledge of sustainable living. All in all a good experience :)

I had so much fun on the finka, Annette is full of knowledge and interesting conversations and Chris as well plus he's a wonderful cook! The area is absolutely beautiful so be sure to take the bike out and explore the mountains. Be ready to work and be pretty isolated though!

Tha place and the surroundings are very beautiful, amazing for hiking. The finca is very isolated, though. Be aware that is very far from the beach and at least 1,5h walking from the nearest city where you can go to take the bus anywhere. The work was varied and from 9am to 2pm, exactly like agreed. I enjoyed moving around and doing different tasks. Also a very good experience if you want to enjoy some nature and peace. Not a place for a Spanish culture immersion because they are both from Germany, but we had a great time with them and the other volunteers.

It was a good experience helping Chris to assemble a canopy and inner structures for their new camper van. The jobs may vary accordingly with their necessities... The place is in a rural area with lots of nature to check around (some close but others not much).

This was our first experience with Worldpackers and it was really great! There is always something to do but the work is never too hard. Chris and Annette are truly special people, they make you feel at home from the first time you get there. Chris is an amazing cooker and Annette introduced us to the โ€œyoga's worldโ€ (in a magnificent way). It was all perfect! :)

Annette has such a uniquely beautiful and loving soul which she expresses wonderfully with both her yoga practice and her knowledge. Christian is simply one of the coolest guys I've ever had the privilege of knowing, and is an exceptional cook! The accomodation I was given was not only comfortable, but both hosts offered to make it more cozy if needed (which I didn't need because it was perfect). I was given privacy and the freedom to use the communal areas when I wanted. I was working with Chris doing maintenance and construction, he is an excellent leader and sets a good example! Thanks!!

My experience was amazing. Chris and Annette are wonderful people, with good stories and willing to help. The activities were easy and the food was amazing. The city is 1h far (walking) from the finca. The animals are amazing, I'm missing you all! Hope to see you again!
