My time at the farm over the last two months was an experience worth having. I was able to learn a lot about nature, interpersonal relationships and, above all, about myself. I had a lot of fun, met new people and took on responsibility, which I really enjoyed. I can recommend this place to anyone who wants to get to know themselves better, because this is a great opportunity to do so! Thank you for the great time!

My boyfriend and I had a beautiful stay at Lenzeas! She wasn't there in the time, so we looked after the land by ourselves but the tasks were easy and she made sure to explain everything very well before she left and gave us the contact information of her neighbor, who was also very friendly and always ready to help whenever we needed anything. We really enjoyed our week in nature and spent a lot of time with the cat, we were caring for. She would always follow us around and visit for cuddles in the caravan we stayed at. The people we met in the village nearby were also very welcoming! :)

This was my first volunteer experience, I only spent a week and it was an incredible experience, it was everything I needed. Lenzea is a wonderful person, she always explained the services to me in detail and was always willing to answer any questions. During the week I did some manual work, we held a Yoga session, and I also took care of his kitten (a sweetheart). Even with my difficulty in English, she was very patient and spoke Spanish so I could understand better. I plan to come back again and stay longer.

Joyce was wonderful! She was independant and helped out. Great with communicating that what she did not understand and she gave lots of live to Vera our cat. Thank you!
