The Experience

Estamos reformando un antiguo manoir y sus bodegas, se trata de una propiedad con mucha historia, que data del siglo XIV y en la cual han vivido numerosas personalidades, de hecho hay registros de que el hermano de Louis XIV pasaba sus vacaciones en ella. Consta de 5 hectáreas de bosque, nos gustaría conservar este trozo de la historia del Pays-de-la-loire para que no caiga en el olvido.

Fue nuestra primera experiencia como voluntarios y la verdad fue mucho mejor de lo que esperábamos, desde el trato, las instalaciones, la alimentación y el trabajo en equipo con Anne y Samanta fueron muy buenos. Las horas de trabajo se respetan y constantemente tienes comunicación con ellas ya que te brindan la seguridad de sentirte acogido. Sumado a esto, la tranquilidad y contacto con la naturaleza son impagables, así es que lo recomiendo muchísimo para quienes quieran desconectarse de la ciudad. Tienen una familia canina que siempre te sacan una sonrisa, son muy obedientes y amistosos.

Nuestra experiencia fue genial, Samantha y Anne son unas exelentes anfitrionas y maravillosas personas, cabe mencionar que cocinan muy rico 😋. Nos hicieron sentir como en casa y siempre estuvieron preocupadas de nuestro bienestar. La Chartier es bellisima, está rodeada de naturaleza, y la casa para voluntarios es reconfortante. Totalmente recomendable ir con la conciencia de apoyar y ayudar Anne en sus tareas diarias. Esta fue nuestra primera experiencia como voluntariados y nos vamos muy contentos y agradecidos. ❤️

Mi experiencia como voluntario en La Charte ha sido extraordinaria y enriquecedora en todos los aspectos. Durante mi estancia, pude aplicar muchos de los conocimientos adquiridos en mi formación profesional, lo que me permitió mejorar en diversas áreas. Anne Marie, una persona increíblemente amable y sabia. El lugar es encantador, lleno de historia, y los carismáticos chihuahuas fueron una compañía inigualable. Samantha, es igualmente cordial y encantadora. Agradezco profundamente esta experiencia y la calidez de ambas
