This was my first time doing Worldpackers and I had a blast! Juan was a super engaging and friendly guy and he took me to see a lot of cool things. The project is doing important and inspiring work and I feel lucky to have been a part of it. Also his mom and the whole family is very friendly and make you feel at home. I highly recommend this experience!

I've done plenty of volunteer programs in my life, and this one is one of the best! The place is beautiful, with interesting projects, the food is delicious, Esther (Juan's mum) is so kind and really funny, and Juan is very attentive to your needs and who you are. I definitely recommend it! Thank you so much!

Absolutely loved my experience! Truly one of the best volunteer programs I have done during my travels. Juan is very attentive and kind. Doña Esther, which is his mother and cooks the meals is such a silly, kind, and caring soul. The experience allows for lots of introspection. I'd highly recommend!!!!

This was our first experience through world packers and it was amazing, I can't recommend it enough! Juan and his family are amazing, so friendly, accommodating, and very inspiring. The work the foundation does is incredible and I am so honoured to have been a part of it. Everything is well explained, working hours are good, there is lots of time for rest as well as work, and on days off you can explode nearby ecological parks which are great if you like hiking!

If you are reading this, it means you are considering it... Please please go here. Juan and his family are the kindest, loving and welcoming people. We felt very supported the entire time and part of the family. The work you do is really important and varies each day. We learnt so much from this opportunity and made memories for life. There are really special people so please treat them with respect and give them your very best. Added bonus- Mamas food is incredible! Extremely accommodating, fun and impactful. Cannot recommend this enough.

This was my first Worldpackers experience and it has truly left me with a ball of light in my chest. Working on the farm, meeting other travellers, teaching and playing with kids, painting, and building eco plaques and bricks. I truly feel like during my time on the farm was impactful and it was incredibly inspiring. Juan and his family are extremely kind and generous and their project is amazing. I would highly recommend a stay at the farm to anyone looking to learn about sustainability, get your hands dirty, and make an impact. “We can't help everyone, but everyone can help someone.” <3

Amazing project, Juan and his mother are truly wonderful and caring humans! It felt like a home stay as well as volunteer project, with delicious homecooked meals and learning lots about the local community. The work they do is so impactful and well rounded, and you can really feel like you are making a difference in a short time. I was able to do multiple different tasks (gardening, building, teaching kids) with flexibility around my hours. I also had my own hut to stay in, with private bathroom and hot shower! I would recommend this project to everyone!

Our time at the lodge was truly unforgettable. Juan is a kind and dedicated host, clearly passionate about what he does. He was always eager to share his knowledge and got us involved in a range of meaningful projects, including painting, planting, teaching English, and building. We felt the real impact of our work and built genuine connections along the way. From the moment we arrived his entire family welcomed us and made us feel completely at home. The meals were delicious, and the accommodation was cosy and comfortable. We wholeheartedly recommend this Worldpackers experience!
