I had an excellent experience, full of learning, connections with different people. The place is of complete tranquility, it is isolated in the middle of cherry trees and flowers, in the background a forest full of life and fresh air. Volunteering in practical matters is very clear and full of freedom. The freedom to talk to Nicole and share doubts, always in high spirits. The work done is simple, the tasks well defined. Excellent quality food. A place always full of people looking to meditate, relax and enjoy nature. I appreciate the opportunity.

Todo fue perfecto. Es un lugar lleno de naturaleza y tranquilidad, por lo que si lo que quieres es desconectar de tu día a día y estar contigo mismo es el lugar perfecto. En nuestro caso, el trabajo fue bien, estábamos en la cocina ayudando a preparar platos y limpiar todo, tal y como Nicole explicaba en el anuncio. En lugar de hospedaje se encuentra en el mismo lugar de trabajo, que es una cabaña, y los días que el bar no está abierto puedes utilizar la cocina para prepararte lo que quieras

Fue una experiencia muy buena, pero si no fuera por que las pocas voluntarias que coincidieron conmigo hubiese sido duro. Me hubiese gustado que avisaran que el menu, aun cocinándonos nosotras, era vegetariano, cosa que yo no soy y la información hubiera estado bien. A parte de eso solo que los horarios aunque no superaron nunca las horas eran un poco impredecibles, cerraban antes, no coincidían los descansos con lo programado… Recomiendo la experiencia si quieres sobretodo pasar tiempo contigo mismo y te gusta la naturaleza, si buscas vida social infórmate del voluntario que estará contigo
