It's a rencho in the nature where you can give your contribute to the sustainable construction of some parts of the property. The food it's not provided and they took you to supermarket with 200 pesos every week. Beto was always welcoming and kind. Jose was always available for explanations and needs, even if he overstepped in confidence

El proyeto fue una experiencia enriquecedora que me permitió conectar con la naturaleza, la tranquilidad y el trabajo. Pude disfrutar de Xalapa, un lugar increíblemente hermoso. El rancho es precioso: muy verde, bien cuidado y con espacios habitables cómodos y limpios. Las habitaciones son agradables, cuentan con agua caliente y una buena cocina. El entorno invita a relajarse y socializar, creando un ambiente muy acogedor. Además, los anfitriones son personas excepcionales, con una calidad humana admirable. Estoy muy agradecido con ellos y con el proyecto en general. Mucho éxito !!

Aprendí mucho sobre construcción natural, Moni y Jose son muy amables y siempre están al pendiente de los voluntarios, se han convertido en grandes amigos. Tienen un huerto y un hijo muy lindo y consentido llamado Panda. El poder apoyar al proyecto de the project ha sido una gran experiencia, recomiendo a otros viajeros que no se pierdan la oportunidad de aprender en este proyecto en medio del bosque.
