The Experience

As we are getting older we now need to enlist some help, not only with the general day-to-day running but also with an entire list of projects which we would like to get done over the next 3 years. With the aim of further self-sufficiency. Converting the rest of our house into a dormitory & common/conference room for travelers & others who wish to come to workshops, which we ambitiously would like to set up for teaching Energy work & Healing.

I had a wonderful experience with Martín and Vanessa. Working with Martín is super easy, and Vanessa's meals are incredible. I felt very comfortable and welcomed. The place is amazing, perfect to disconnect from the city. It was an excellent choice for my first time as a volunteer. I would definitely come back!

My time here has been truly enjoyable. The work wasn't difficult, and Vanessa and Martin were incredibly considerate, always making sure I was comfortable. It was the perfect place to learn about nature and sustainable farming. They also provided delicious and special meals and helped me improve my English. I'll miss this place a lot, and I hope I can return someday. It's a place where you can feel happy doing nothing at all.🥰

It was my first experience volunteering with worldpackers, and I really enjoyed it. Vanessa and Martin are really good hosts, very friendly and I learned a lot with them. They were very flexible with my diet (I'm vegetarian), and everything was delicious (the best was the ginger cake)! Thanks for everything, a big hug for you!
