The Experience

Nos gusta hospedar voluntarios de distintos  países que quieran aprender sobre el turismo rural, la agricultura ecológica y el aprovechamiento de los recursos del entorno, desde los alimentos hasta los materiales de construcción. También sobre las propiedades curativas de muchas plantas medicinales que cultivamos, sobre todo el aloe vera, que da nombre a la finca.

I had a really great time with Lola. She made us feel welcome and always tried to communicate with us even though we had a language barrier. The work was really fun and not too exhausting. I learned new things and got to meet many international travelers. Lola was okay with us being vegan and provided vegan meals for us, which was really great. The accommodation was cozy and gave us privacy if needed. I would really recommend going to the farm if you want to spend time in nature and if you want to meet new people.

I really enjoyed staying with Lola :) She was really nice and welcoming. The tasks were fun and the working hours were perfect. The accommodation was cozy and calm. The food was really good but we were also able to cook for ourselves. We had the chance to meet a lot of very nice travelers who made our stay much more enjoyable as well. We had at least five oranges each day and I already miss them! I would really recommend staying with lola in her peaceful piece of paradise.

After 7 months of volunteering in Europe I was a little disappointed I didn't feel there was open communication, Lola doesn't really explain about the work. When I arrived at the volunteer kitchen, the kitchen was very dirty with rotten food leftovers. I had really to clean it so I could cook there I think it's important to respect the volunteers who come to help and treat them more decently I believe this place could be a great experience with the improvements I wrote. thank you:)

Lola replied

Siento que te llevaras esa sensación .Yo solo procuré que estuvieras bien.
Y como todo te sentaba mal, me molesté en averiguar que solo comías pollo y brócoli. Pero te tuve que decir que te buscaras otro sitio porque gritabas y sentíamos miedo no solo yo, sino también las demás personas.En veinticinco años en wwoof y los pocos meses que llevo en worldpackers es la primera vez que me he visto obligada a echar a alguien.

Our stay at Lolas place was very enjoyable. We felt welcomed from the second we met her even though there was a language barrier. The whole property was very nice and gave a lot of possibilities for different types of work like feeding the donkeys or doing some harvesting. We slept in our own little house with a bathroom just for ourselves which was really nice and we were allowed to use the communal kitchen where we got to try Lolas delicious Banana bread and lots of different very delicious recipes. All in all I would recommend it👍

My stay at Lola's was very nice! My boyfriend and I had our own little house and got to use the communal kitchen with all the fresh food inside! We also got other delicious dishes that Lola prepared 😋 The work was fair and the workhours were good. Sometimes I wished for clearer instructions, since we had a little language barrier (spanish/english), which was sad because we didn't get to talk a lot to Lola, though she seems like a very nice person!! I learned many new things and would definitely recommend this experience. Thank you Lola 😇
