The experience with Massimo has been fantastic. For someone like me who comes from a very chaotic and polluted environment, this experience is absolutely recommended because it allows you to completely regenerate your body and mind. This experience is not for people who seek the comfort of home or for those who want to take a vacation in the Canary Islands. Instead, it is suitable for those who seek challenges, for those who are tired of the monotony of the city, and want to immerse themselves in an uncontaminated environment rich in vegetation. Moreover, Massimo is a lovely person.

This place is an very old abandoned building, it only sometimes has running water. The owner smokes a bunch and grows San Pedro in his backyard. Is good with herbs and there is many wild plant's around. This place is not regulated in terms of electricity and water. I don't recommend this place for most people, all the good reviews is unfair for new volunteers, don't expect too much from this place. The actual location is cool. You can go down a canyon where there is healing water from a stream. Used in the past as a healing center of some sort. Las Palmas itself is a cool place to visit.

The place is located in beautiful nature and you have an impressive view! There is a bus station close by, for the rest it's kind of far from people (which is not ideal if you want to socialize), but if you're looking for some space and peace you can find a place here.

El proyeto es el lugar ideal para personas con ganas de formar parte de un proyecto alternativo, podrás desconectar del ruido y el estrés de las ciudades y conectarás con la naturaleza y la vida rural. La casa está muy bien dotada de todos los servicios, la única pega es que el agua no es infinita, hay que ser responsable a la hora de usarla, lo cual te enseña a valorarla mas. Hay comida y agua bebible a disposición de los voluntarios pero también ellos deben aportar ambas cosas para el consumo de todos en la casa y compatir. Massimo es un buen hombre con un gran proyecto entre manos.

Questa è stata la mia prima esperienza con worldpackers e la consiglio veramente a tutte quelle persone che hanno bisogno di staccare e prendersi del tempo per se. Massi, il proprietario, è una persona fantastica che mi ha fatto sentire a casa fin dal primo momento; inoltre possiede molte conoscenze in campo erboristico. tornerò sicuramente 😊
