My time at the guest house was good :). But that was mainly because of the other volunteers and because I was there with a friend. The work is easy, there are 5 houses in total and because it was off season it wasn't that much to do. But some houses had bed bugs which was a huge problem and we had to be careful not to bring them into our room. Overall it was fine, but the people I was with made the experience great!

The overall experience was amazing! We met so many wonderful people, and the work was easy and finished quickly 😎! The only downside was the volunteer areas, there were a few insects in the kitchen, and the rooms weren't perfect, but nothing terrible, just something to be aware of before going there😁. We'll miss it a lot, because Faro and the volunteering experience were so much fun!

This was my first WP experience, and I had a great time! I met a lot of amazing people and formed new friendships, and Faro is a nice city. I sometimes had to work at the other locations which was a nice change, and the lunch we had together was always good and nice to meet the other volunteers. The training could've been better. Often i was the only one working at a location without a manager or anything, which made it sometimes more difficult. Because of this you sometimes have to learn by making mistakes.
