I really enjoyed my time at the project. Reda & Marisol were so welcoming and friendly and made me feel right at home. I would have liked to have had longer to help with more things around the house - I would say make sure to come prepared to use your initiative and be creative with ways you can help utilise and organise the space. The Friday night dinners are a great experience- a lot of fun to help prepare and serve. It was also a good opportunity to practice Spanish, meet new people and really see the community that the guys at the project have created. Thankyou !!!

I had such an amazing time at the project & would definitely recommend it to anyone who loves cooking, meeting locals & international travelers! You are living in the house where the dinners are held every Friday night so your responsibility includes keeping the house clean and tidy. All these chores are divided depending upon how many volunteers there are. The chores are simple and they are flexible with the time as long as you communicate. Everything for the diner beginsThursday afternoon until Friday night after everyone has eaten and then it's cleanup time!

Hacer este voluntariado fue una gran decisión. Reda es un anfitrión súper amable. El lugar es muy bonito, cómodo y a solo unas cuadras caminando del centro. La comunicación siempre fue muy buena en cuanto a las actividades a realizar, y tuve suficiente tiempo libre para explorar San Cris y conocer sus alrededores. ¡Millones de gracias por la experiencia!

El proyeto es lo mejor que nos pudo pasar en San Cris, disfrutamos tanto nuestro paso allí que nos quedamos una semana más de lo pensado. Reda no solo es un excelente anfitrión sino un increíble cocinero y amigo. La casa está muy bien ubicada, cerca al centro, es amplia y con un jardín hermoso. Disfrutamos planeado menús y degustando platos, además de la cena argentina. La verdad que esta experiencia fue 100/10.

El proyeto es un lugar muy agradable, cerca del centro, limpio y bonito. Estaba aqui para un tiempo corto y no habia tanto que hacer, poque era una temporada mas calma (menos huespedes, menos comidas y menos actividades) pero me sinti muy bien. Reda me recibio bien, y me enseno cosas a propocito de la cuidad y del mercado. Muchas gracias ☀️
