My stay at the lodge was very tranquil and peaceful. Ana was very accommodating to anything I needed as a guest in her home and I enjoyed our time together. I was asked to do many jobs in any way I could help the community and I was glad to do it! Definitely recommend this experience to anyone looking for place to enjoy nature and peace. Thanks for everything Ana!

The experience was nice overall and the little towns are cute but there's not much really happening. It's good to disconnect from big cities and tourists and connect with nature. Great for biking around. Don't hesitate to contact me for further details.

Thank you Javier for the review, thank you for the recipes you made in our house, they were good times. I am very sorry not to practice English, it was difficult for me, and seeing that there were other tasks at home.... Many kisses and I hope we stay in touch

Mi experiencia en el alojamiento fue muy positiva y enriquecedora! Lugar especial, rodeado de naturaleza, tranquilidad y cerca del pueblo. Ana es muy buena anfitriona, atenta y abierta al diálogo! Me sentí incluida desde el día 1, con su familia, aprendiendo palabras en euskera, conociendo lugares y costumbres locales. Hay muchas tareas y variadas pero en su mayoría podes ir a tu ritmo. Ana es flexible en cuanto a los horarios/días respetando lo pactado previamente. Sin duda recomiendo esta experiencia a quienes buscan conectar con la naturaleza, cultura local, y dispuestos a hacer un poco de todo!

Mi experiencia en el alojamiento fue increíble! Fue mi primer voluntariado y aprendí muchísimo!! Se fue muy rápido! Hay que entender que vienes a un lugar donde hay que tener iniciativa!, orden, limpieza y vienes a colaborar. Listo, si entiendes que el trabajo se debe realizar bien y completo todo va a fluir! Como voluntarNecesitas comunicación, trabajo en equipo, iniciativa, comunicación y organización. Lo demás el lugar es precioso, Ana es muy humana, compartida y trabajadora hay que ayudarla en mantener su hogar al 100% gracias por este mes, espero vernos pronto!! Me llevo el alojamiento en el corazón.

Ha sido un placer tener a Ginder con nosotros. Es una persona sensible, amable y muy respetuosa, con una gran disposición para colaborar y compartir. Durante su estancia se integró de maravilla con todos, especialmente con Soula y con Eder, con quienes compartió buenos momentos.

Nos alegra mucho que se haya sentido a gusto y que haya aprovechado su tiempo aquí para aprender también un poco de euskera. Eskerrik asko, JGnder, por tu ayuda, tu energía positiva y tu presencia tan agradable. Ana
