Mr. Ray and Mrs. Deb were really nice hosts. I truly appreciate their hospitality and patience. I learned about gardening, and I really enjoyed nature. I am delighted with Jazz and Mateo; they're super sweet and affectionate, and the cats are also beautiful. The food is very delicious and healthy.

I had an amazing stay! The host was incredibly welcoming, kind, and attentive to every detail. The place was clean, cozy, and exactly as described — even better in person. Communication was smooth and quick, and I truly felt at home during my visit. I'd absolutely recommend staying here and would love to come back in the future. Thank you for making my trip so memorable!

My first volunteering experience was an immense learning experience. I developed in many ways. Nature is a daily show. Mr. Ray and Deb supported me and made me feel like part of the family. The house is comfortable. The food is wonderful, and the work is a little tougher, depending on the month. The host kept to the agreement and was flexible with the timetable. My greatest feeling is gratitude; I will carry this family in my heart. I miss them already! I hope to see you again.
