This was an incredible experience! From the second we arrived, we were warmly welcomed and felt that way the whole time we were there. We learned so much about working on a farm and learned as well about our capabilities; the work is demanding but rewarding at the end of the day, and the food and environment make this experience worthwhile.

This was my first ever time volunteering and I have to say... are you kidding me? I cannot imagine a more perfect place to go out and volunteer than this. Too bad WorldPackers won't allow writing long reviews, because I could write pages about this experience. So to sum it up: views at the farm are INCREDIBLE, you have to see it in real life. Family was super welcoming and patient with my broken spanish. Food was insanely delicious!! They are super hospitable, honest and hard working people. If you have any doubts - don't, this is the place to go! ❤️

Mi experiencia en la Finca el anfitrión fue hermosa! María Clara y sus papás, Don Gabriel y Doña Lupe son un amor de personas, siempre dispuestas a pasar un buen rato y enseñarte todo lo que saben. 🤍 La comida es DELICIOSA, además de que muchos de sus alimentos se siembran y cosechan ahí. El trabajo puede ser un poco pesado si no estás acostumbrado a trabajar en el campo pero nada del otro mundo. Es excelente si quieres conectarte con la naturaleza, está muy alejado de la sociedad y las vistas que tienes de las montañas son muy únicas, así que 100% recomiendo este voluntariado.

María Clara y su familia hicieron de nuestra experiencia en el anfitrión la mejor. Siempre estuvieron al pendiente de nuestras necesidades y nos tomaron como miembros de la familia. Nos enseñaron a cosechar distintos frutos y vegetales, a cocinar algunos platillos colombianos y a apreciar y agradecer lo que la naturaleza nos brinda. El lugar es una belleza y no podríamos estar más agradecidos con lo que nos enseñaron, sin duda regresare!

Estar en el anfitrión fue una experiencia enriquecedora porque aprendi mucho de las actividades en el campo, de la vida en el campo. Gabriel nos enseño sobre el cafe y nos hizo escuchar su musica antioqueña, Maria Clara y Lupe cocinaron delicioso para nosotros y nos trataron bien, hicieron todo lo posible para setirnos bien. Cuidamos del cafe en el campo, sembramos muchos arboles y comimos muchas mandarinas y aguacates de la huerta.
