The Experience

Estoy dándole una segunda vida a varias telas que tengo en casa. las tinturo con plantas y flores, no sé coser y me gustaría aprender, y que me ayudaras a coser algunas ideas. Podemos intercalar con algunas actividades de casa o de huerto, hacer conservas, quitar telarañas y polvo de zonas comunes, jardín, adaptar un espacio para gallinero. Así que si sabes de mantenimiento o te gusta experimentar en la cocina también sería genial.

I stayed at Cotals the guest house for three weeks, and it was such a wonderful experience. From harvesting fresh produce to cooking healthy, hearty meals, everything felt truly gratifying. Fai was amazing—super organized, kind, and fun! My time there, surrounded by nature, animals, and warm, fun-loving people, made it all the more special.

My experience here really exceeded my expectations. A lot of the work let us get in touch with nature. Whether it was yard work or harvesting veggies, we really got to enjoy what the national park had to offer.. clean air, the sounds of birds, warm sun. If not, the work indoors is great too as u get to enjoy the beautiful textiles of the castle. The work was very well organized and flexible too. Everyday you receive a text with the work for the day, and Faizuly will come and explain things. Lots of connection, language exchange, laughs, and delicious meals from the garden. Muchas gracias <3

Fai and Xavi are kind, down to earth and welcoming people which work hard to make the volunteers happy, I would recommend staying at the guest house Avinyó to anyone. The house itself is a real beauty and is on the edge of a nature park. Lots of beautiful walks and interesting hotel guests and the work allocated is straight forward and satisfying.

My time at the guest house Alvinyó was remarkable and full of memories that will stay with me for the rest of my life. It's a beautiful place with frequent contact and connection with nature. The beach isn't far from the house, and you're close to Castelló d'Empúries and Empuriabrava, you can even walk there. Muchas gracias, Fai, Xabi, Tristan y Gio, for all the attention, the lessons, the ideas, the paella, and all the cultural exchange. I definitely recommend the place and the experience. It was really good 😁

Staying at Corral the guest house was an amazing experience, the modernist house has such a special and relaxed energy. We took care of the house and garden, as well as cooked some great meals with food from the garden. Our hosts was nice and welcoming and our rooms were cosy as well. I get to learn so much about gardening, sustainable living and slow life in Catalunya. I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys peaceful life and wants to try life on the land. Thank you for everything!
