Es toda una aventura ir en l chiva(camión bus utilizado por los locales)disfrutando del paisaje ,conectar con los locales y adentrarse al territorio de la FARC fue muy interesante para poder llevarme una realidad de facto y ver con mis propios ojos unos de los lugares más seguros ,(quien no debe nada ,nada tiene que temer)ya llegando fui recibido por la carismática Andrea seguido de sus familiares que me recibieron como uno más de l familia.Unos de los pocos lugares que realmente me senti en el trato como un voluntario y el respeto que se tienen todos ,hasta los animales kk.Gracias totales

Mi experiencia aquí a pesar de no ser muy larga fue muy buena, Andrea y su familia son grandes seres humanos y las vistas son excelentes. Recomiendo enormemente ir a conocer el sitio, su gente y su historia, espero poder ir en una próxima oportunidad y estar allí todo el tiempo que me sea posible.

Recomiendo muchísimo este voluntariado. Andrea y su familia son gente encantadora que te hace sentir cómo en casa y se preocupan de que tengas una muy buena experiencia. Además de aprender mucho sobre la naturaleza y la historia de la región. La conexión con la naturaleza es increíble.

Mi experiencia en la granja fue simplemente increible. Andrea y su familia me acojeron como si fuera un miembro de la familia. Siendo alli en el periodo de Navidad, pude compartir estos momentos con la familia y la comunidad, también fuimos muchas veces de paseo, el entorno es hermosisimo. Los proyectos de Andrea, que sea con la granja agroecologica o la escuela audiovisual, aportan mucho a la comunidad. Trabajé en la granja y también dando clases de inglés a los ninos del territorio. Siempre era muy interesante y de una manera respetuosa de mi tiempo. Sin duda volveria !!

Gracias Anais. Nosotros ya te extrañamos. Esperamos tenerte de vuelta. Los niños preguntan todo el tiempo por ti. Siempre lo mejor para ti.

Me sentí parte de la familia, tanto es así que quedé 51 días en este maravilloso voluntariado. Aprendí mucho con la anfitriona Ruta: Comer saludable, ejercitarme, hasta coser mis ropas. Los oficios que colaboré fueron con el huerto, animales, ayudar a su hermano Lenin con las tareas, colaborar en los cuidados con su hijo brasileño, en la cocina y en sus proyectos culturales. Ya extraño a todos! Recomiendo mucho estar en esta región, es una excelente oportunidad para deshacer los estigmas que sufren y conocer las verdades sobre la guerrilla y las comunidades afectadas. Abrazos a todos!
