Cristina and Ricardo...such a good souls!!! I've never felt better in a place than in their house, a beautiful wood and stone house in the middle of the nature in the Ourense mountains. In their home and with their bees, animals and plants you can learn a lot about nature and how to work with it, how to connect and to respect it too. In the house you can learn so much about life and the world with two very good heart people that love to share with others their time and knowledge. The rooms to sleep were so beautiful and I can't really wait to come back here to see their new projects!

The hostages are such good people. We learned a lot and always felt good even if we did some things wrong. The chats during the meals were really interesting and enlightening. The place is a small village where every person welcome you and makes you feel comfortable, so does every animal.

Ricardo y Cristina te integran en su casa con muchísima naturalidad y calidez, tienen una gran predisposición para compartir sus conocimientos y experiencias. La casa está situada en una aldea en un valle encantador con excelentes vistas al río desde lo alto. La experiencia resultó altamente enriquecedora, ya que su filosofía de vida se encuentra directamente aplicado a su trabajo con las abejas y el huerto. Les agradezco muchísimo Rik y cris un abrazo enorme.
