Staying at Mihkel & Beatrice was incredible, they are both so kind and generous, it felt like a home away from home, excellent place to reconnecting with nature, I enjoyed learning new skills at the apple the farm and even work there was a constant good time. Thanks!

I had the best time at the farm. The host Bea is amazing, she's happy to learn you all about the making of the products which they sell from the appels and tomatoes and she even took the time to learn us how to make your own bread. I learned so much! It's a dream come true for people who love working with their hands and like nature. The property is a real forest where you can merge with nature and go for a walk with the dogs who are so sweet. I couldn't recommend it more, I will have some long lasting nice memories about this place :)

The experience at the farm Doble Actitud was very nice. Mihkel and Beatriz are very beautiful, kind, friendly, and caring people. They always made us feel comfortable and happy! They love their the farm, and it shows a lot because it is impressive and beautiful. I was able to practice my English, learn about the local culture, and learn a lot about farm life. I highly recommend it!

The farm experience was amazing! Mihkel and Beatrice make you feel really welcome like you are part of the family. They were really kind and helpful, they offered us a lot of information about the local towns, things to do around, and the culture of the country. We learned a lot from the farm work, sustentabilty, the importance of organic produce and farmlife. This was a really beautiful place to connect with nature, do some hiking in the woods and have beautiful activities and conversations with the family. We recommend this experience 100%!

The time on the apple ochard was wonderful. I immediately felt welcome and was able to have great conversations with Mihkel and Beatrice. You feel like part of the family on the project and I really enjoyed the time there. This family will always have a place in my heart and I already miss them. They always tried to make me feel comfortable, for which I am incredibly grateful, and also the other Worldpackers made the two weeks an unforgettable time, thank you for everything! I Hope we will see us again☺️🫶🏻
