After we arrived I said that this place is paradise. Really artistic and quiet place to spend some time at. Freddy is the nicest person I've ever met, funny guy who will talk to you with patience, lots of gestures and you will just love him and his jokes even though if your Spanish is very very limited like mine is. Highly recommend this place for everyone. The work is also chill and you will learn lots of things. There are chickens, guinea pigs, dog and three cats. There is also beach nearby, just 45 minutes by walk.

The farm is an amazing place and Freddy is definitely the kindest and most humble person in the world, with huge heart for travelers. With other wonderful people we've met there it felt like family. I improved my poor Spanish, found out that I can cook and made some nice arts and crafts (also tried working with wood)! We were feeding animals, harvesting blackberries, also we built new chicken house. There was always something to do, but with such a great atmosphere it didn't even feel like work. I left a piece of my heart there and can't recommend enough to visit!

It was an awesome experience! I felt very confortable and welcomed by Freddy, who is a very comunicative and friendly person. I worked in the garden and had time to visit the area very well. I recommend this experience to get to know the Peruvian culture and people!

The farm was an amazing experience, Freddy is a super host, he's gentle, funny, he'll tell you all about his projects and of his ideals and what he believes in when he welcomes new people who travel. He will help you out if you want to visit Chincha or elsewhere. He will always have a smile or a chat for you. The work is simple and satisfying if you enjoy working with the land and nature.

I absolutely loved this experience!!! Freddy is a great host, very caring and very good at making sure you felt safe and looked after. I only stayed a week but it seems to be a good place to base yourself to explore the Pisco and Paracas region. You'll learn a lot of Spanish too :)
