My time time in Vilarcangel was one of the best I've had with Worldpackers! The work was usually easy and only 3h a day. I stayed in a room with a wwoofer which was nice. Ulises and everyone living in there were so warm and welcoming and always in a good mood. I also got to participate in a retreat, which there are sometimes on the weekends and met some locals. I loved getting to know Ulises, Ian, Rafa and everyone else, being shown around, making music together and of course learning about biodiversity. A truly inspiring experience! :)

Amazing group of people, made to feel very at home. Great place to practice Spanish too. The home itself is so beautiful and full of character. Can get cold in the night so make sure to bring jumpers socks and long pants ! Thankyou to Ulises, Gilles and others for the opportunity, guidance and support

I think i can stand out two main points on this experience. the first is about feeling super welcomed. everybody is lovely and I could really feel like home. I met such amazing people that I will bring within my heart forever. the second one is that unfortunately the work was not exactly what I expected, quite different from the description, once we ended up having to work in the orange field, instead of the recently raised ecological garden. after a conversation with the host, we respectfully decided to cease the stay.
