Juan Carlos is a kind person and I enjoyed getting to know him. Gracias por todo! However a few things to clarify: Location: not Cadiz (See Lena's review for more detail) Property: not an eco village and rather a house with a few semi-private accommodation areas People: there will likely only be 1-2 volunteers total and most of the work is solitary Work: bio construction seems mostly finished; the remaining projects are maintenance and painting Language: best if you speak intermediate Spanish or better as JC does not speak English and his accent is difficult to understand for beginners

The Villa is a special place with art in every corner. For me it was not a 5-star-experience as I personally didn't feel too comfortable there; I only stayed for one week so it was ok. Also the location on Worldpackers is not appropriate as you have to use a car to get to town and there is no public transportation in the living area nor any things to do (very rural). However, Juan usually goes to Cádiz or Jerez every day where you can join him. Juan is very kind and you can always ask him if you need anything. He knows a lot about the history of the surrounding places which is interesting too!

Juan es una persona muy cariñosa y le importa que no te falta nada. El lugar es un oasis artístico marcado por la historia y la cultura. Nos sentimos muy cómodos. Las tareas eran claras y nos dieron espacio para desarrollarnos creativamente. Trabajamos en los proyectos junto con Stefano y el intercambio fue muy educativo y en una base amistosa. Es ventajoso tener un coche. Sin embargo, el entorno aquí es muy interesante y hay mucho que explorar. Juan sabe mucho sobre el lugar y le gusta contar, lo que es muy interesante. Gracias por esta gran experiencia.
