I had a really fantastic time at the eco village. Jorge and Maria are phenomenal hosts, and I very much enjoyed the work we did and learning new things (mainly in construction). Their philosophy is that we can all live with less, and I definitely saw them sticking to that. Being there also helped me practice and improve my Spanish, as well as connect with people from around the world.

Jorge and Maria were so sweet and genuinely wanted to make sure you had a good stay. The work was varied which I liked. Painting, cutting down trees, building maintenance, cleaning kitchen and bathroom. Work was done by 2 or 3 so you had the rest of the day free and San Juan is a $25 Uber so have lots of opportunities to explore. The cabins are rustic but it's a great place to connect with nature and practice Spanish

This was an amazing experience all around. This was my first world packers experience and it was perfect. Jorge and Maria are the kindest souls who have built a great eco friendly community. My tasks varied from painting benches, painting and remodeling the bathroom/shower area. One day we cut trees and invasive plants with machetes. Lots of organizing and cleaning different areas around the farm. They have about 10 cabins on the 2 acres of land. And the food María cooked for us was amazing. They are very accommodating to your schedule as long as you communicate. I <3 the eco village!!!!!

I had a wonderful time at the eco village. It's an extremely beautiful property that has absolutely amazing views to look at every night. The food is spectacular. Jorje and Maria are two of the most welcoming, hilarious, and sweet people i've ever worked with through Worldpacker. There was definitely a language barrier for me because I don't speak spanish, but we still laughed all the time. The work was very fun, challenging at times, and rewarding. Everything was better than I expected and I would thoroughly recommend!

My time at the eco village was unforgettable. I improved my Spanish, learned to wash clothes by hand, and gained confidence by trying tasks outside my usual comfort zone. Jorge's kindness and Maria's amazing cooking made the experience even better. Sharing moments with fellow volunteers was truly special. If you want to immerse yourself in nature, embrace a digital detox, and be open to new challenges, I highly recommend it.
