Mi experiencia en la granja fue genial, Juan y el resto del equipo son personas súper buenas. Además el Hostal esta ubicado en un entorno natural , bien comunicado con buses regulares de línea. Los trabajos son variados y Juan es flexible con los Horarios. Recomiendo este voluntariado si te gusta estar en la naturaleza de manera sostenible. Muchas gracias por haber formado parte de la granja. Saludos Felipe

Realicé mi primer voluntariado en la granja y desde el primer día me sentí bienvenida. Las tareas fueron variadas: recepción, mantenimiento y pintura. El lugar es muy tranquilo y los colectivos pasan cada 15min aprox para ir a la zona urbana más cercana. Al principio no me sentí cómoda con la habitación asignada, pero me ofrecieron otra sin problema, lo cual agradezco mucho. Juan fue muy amable y siempre estuvo atento a cómo me sentía. Fue una experiencia de aprendizaje, recomiendo si estás buscando un voluntariado en conexión con la naturaleza. Gracias JuanX2, Tere y Juanita❣️

No voy a contar lo mal que la pasé! Por qué las experiencias son particulares y personales. Solo se que si te pasa algo en esa estadía, cómo que las ratas coman tu comida o las chinches y pulgas coman tu cuerpo, el dueño se te reira en la cara y te tratará de loca, o culpara que vos llevaste las chinches, siendo que el mismo hizo desinfectar una habitación por esta plaga. Si necesitan saber más, me pueden escribir x privado no tengo problemas. También tengo los audios del dueño riéndose de mí, ( Juan me reenvié los audios antes que los borres) ya hice la denuncia en worldpackers
