The Experience
Hey! I'm Oier, 29, originally from Vitoria in the Basque Country. I live on a beautiful piece of land I bought in Tinajo, Lanzarote, where I grow food 🌱 and explore permaculture 🌾. With my two dogs and two cats, we enjoy the simple island life 🌞🏝️. I’m passionate about music , the sea , nature 🌿, and staying active outdoors. I love sharing good vibes and experiences with others while learning and discovering new things every day.

I had a wonderful time in the finca with Oier and other volunteers. I also got used to the presence of all the four-legged companions, especially the crazy Paco:) so much. The atmosphere was very chill and for the work we could choose what suited us so I had a chance to be creative and decorate a wall with mosaic. I really enjoyed the jamming and games which we sometimes played in the evenings. Unfortunately Oier was quite busy and often wasn't at the finca. In the rural land I felt a bit isolated at first but I managed to clear my mind totaly. Thanks for the opportunity:)

La pasé muy bien durante mi voluntariado en el proyeto. El equipo de voluntarios fue muy lindo y todos nos coordinamos y nos llevamos muy bien. Oier es una persona muy relajada y nos daba mucha libertad sobre lo que queríamos hacer en la finca. Este voluntariado se sintió como un intercambio genuino, un par de horas de trabajo a cambio de una experiencia diferente en un lugar único como Lanzarote. Los perros y gatos de Oier son divinos, su compañía fue de lo mejor del voluntariado. Daría la recomendación de rentar un coche con otros voluntarios para poder explorar bien la isla.
