The Experience
We are a family with a baby and a child, living in the middle of the forest, we bought a huge land to start a community project. There is a river bordering the land and a waterfall near. We have a lot of fruit trees and several constructions. We enjoy practicing yoga, meditation, and taking walks in nature (but we don't practice it everyday). Our house is situated 7km from Puertomingalvo by contry road. We have two horses, and two dogs.

It was truly a special exerience to help Júlia and Borja with their project. They are a really inspiring family and I could learn a lot for life and for myself during the stay. It's a great place to connect with nature and you can feel such a good energy there, it's magical! The work was quite interesting - it was fun to learn new things and help in the garden, the forest or the household. And I really enjoyed playing with Aneka and Leia, they are soo adorable!! It was also great that there were 2 other volunteers from Sweden during my stay to spend the free time together. :) Muchas gracias!!

It was a great experience. Borja and Julia are really nice people and it was really fun to get to know their family. The place was really beautiful, but you got a bit isolated. But if you really love nature, this is the place for you. The hosts were really understanding, caring and flexible.

I really loved this experience! The place is beautiful, in the middle of a valley with a river just 10m away, perfect to dive in after work. It's ideal to immerse in nature, disconnect from digital life, and learn new things. I gained skills in construction, wood work, and even new dishes I'll cook back home. Borja, Julia, the kids, the dogs and Sananda were super kind. Also, thanks to the volunteers, Ali, Marco and Giulia, you made it feel like home, I really hope to see you again! The project has room to grow, but a bright future.

We lived 3 weeks at Borja and Julia's place, in full contact with nature and animals. It is a very beutiful valley, near a river where we spent the afternoons relaxing after the working morning. The place is isolated from the little village of puertomingalvo, so its difficult to reach any other place during the days off, but you can go for hiking around the mountains. The job was pretty hard but but flexible. There wasnt a lot of communication and organization beetween hosts and voluteers. That sometimes created uncomfortable situations. Frequently there was the willing of solve the problems.
