This was my first volunteering experience, and I couldn't ask for a better host. It's a charming and lovely place, with many trees and fresh air, and the kitchen and bedroom are well equipped. The tasks are relatively easy, just remember not to underestimate them. Lucky and Andy are very welcoming and made me feel home from the very first day, made me have amazing experiences and got me to know more about Guatemala. I enjoyed a lot taking care of Capu and Dobby, they were the nicest pets ever. I would definitely repeat this experience.

The home un lugar hermoso, tranquilo y rodeado de naturaleza. La experiencia en el voluntariado fue positiva, Lucky y Andy nos recibieron de la mejor manera, dos genios. Tuvimos la oportunidad de poder compartir paseos, comidas, anécdotas y risas. Las tareas fueron las acordadas, además nos brindaron una habitación confortable, cocina, living y la compañía de Capu y Dobby. 🐶🐈 Súper recomendable

We couldn't ask for a better worlpacker, definitely the next WP will have to fit a big shoes, cause you did all the tasks with commitment and always you were there to help us, more now with my back problem. We wish you the best and hopefully we will see you in the future. Regards our dear friend! Let the light of the universe guide your way!
