The Experience

We are Marc, Victoria, and our little Blai. Recently, we acquired a charming apartment with a garden in Palafrugell and we are excited to start this new chapter in our lives. But before fully settling in, we need a bit of help to renovate and beautify our home. We are looking for one or two enthusiastic volunteers to join us on this exciting adventure. The tasks are varied : painting walls, changing floors, finish the new bath, and kitchen,etc..

We had a wonderful time with Marc, Vicky and the other nice volunteers. We spent every evening really cozy together and during the day we had time to go for a walk or rode with the bike. The appartment is a work in progress, so really curious about the results in a couple of months! Thanks for the wonderful experience!

Foi uma experiência incrível, tivemos muita sorte de poder realizar essa troca com o Mark e a Vic, e seu filhinho Blai, são pessoas incríveis, do bem e super disponíveis para te ajudar. As tarefas são claras, ajudamos na obra do apartamento e tivemos tempo para curtir e conhecer o lugar. Só venham!

Tuvimos una experiencia maravillosa y creemos que, para nuestro primer voluntariado, no podría haber sido mejor. Marc y su esposa Vick nos dieron consejos estupendos y nos recomendaron lugares increíbles para conocer. Siempre que pudieron, estuvieron presentes para disfrutar con nosotros. Nos sentimos muy a gusto con el trabajo, y ellos son flexibles para hacer ajustes cuando es necesario. En realidad, todo lo que hicimos fue en una relación de amistad, que sin duda continuará. Recomiendo muchísimo a esta familia, y de paso conocerás al príncipe Blai, que es un niño adorable.
