The Experience

Somos Santiago y Sabina, tenemos una bonita casa y un huerto donde cultivamos vegetales para el mercado local. Estamos a 10 minutos andando al transporte público hacia Chiclayo. Somos familia cristiana, no fumamos y no hacemos fiesta. Queremos voluntarios que les guste el campo y respeten las normas de casa. Empezamos el día a las 7:30 AM. Las tareas básicamente son cosechar, limpiar, sembrar, ayudar en la cocina o hacer algunos arreglos.

This host takes care of their volunteers very well. They make sure you are well fed for breakfast, lunch and dinner and will always give you somthing to do if you feel as though you dont have enough to do. Here you will learn about farming techniques and will be able to eat fresh Peruvian fruits straight off the trees if you wish. You may also be able to meet other international or Peruvian volunteers during your stay. You will get the chance to have close interactions with friends of the family and locals in the community, making for a truly emmersive cultural experience.

Mi experiencia de voluntariado en el proyeto ha sido verdaderamente enriquecedora y gratificante. Quisiera expresar mi más sincero agradecimiento a Saray, Joel, Jhon y sus padres, quienes con su calidez y generosidad, me brindaron una acogida inolvidable. Su dedicación y pasión por el proyeto por enseñar a otros son inspiradoras. Gracias a ellos, mi experiencia en el proyeto ha dejado una huella imborrable en mi vida, motivándome a seguir participando en iniciativas que promuevan la conciencia ambiental el proyeto desarrollo comunitario. ¡Gracias por todo!

Holà todos ! Mi experiencia en la huerta el proyeto Sabina fue más allá de lo que esperaba. Durante dos semanas vivi como en casa, ellos me trataron como parte de su familia ! La comida aquí es fresca y deliciosa (seguro gané un poco de peso ^^) y la casa muy cómoda. El trabajo es simple, ayudar a sembrar y cosechar los productos de la huerta, aprendi mucho mientras eso. Ayudé también un poco en la construcción del gimnasio así que los futuros voluntariados podrán hacer muchos músculos ! Gracias a Doña Sabina, Don el proyeto, Joel, John, Saraii y Tito para ofrecerme un tiempo tan lindo.

Toda la familia Gamonal son unas personales increíbles, aprendí un montón de ellos y realmente estoy agradecida con cada uno. No te hacen sentir como que tienes tareas específicas. Participé con la señora Sabrina en cosecha de frutas y verduras como plantas en general! También participé junto a Joel viendo sus colmenas y aprendí sobre las abejas. Una mención para Sofia que fue una anfitriona increíble! Sin duda una familia con muchos valores y con mucho que compartir.
