Anthony is a really welcoming person. After my arrival he showed me his whole home and always helped me with everything I needed for example how to take the bus. I got very delicious food every day. I will miss the fresh fruits and vegetables from his garden and the tea. The work was different very day and he was really flexible with the working hours. One day I planted corn and pumpkin and the other day I painted boards for a chicken enclosure. During my stay was a yoga training and he invited me to join. I learned more about chocolate and yoga and I will definitely continue with Yin Yoga.

One of my best experiences in Nicaragua! I loved volunteering here and learning about permaculture — making soap, natural repellent, and fresh coconut milk. My main task was gardening, plus helping in the kitchen, where Anthony encouraged creativity with ingredients straight from the garden (the mango smoothies were unbeatable!). His mother, Martina, is kind and welcoming. The place is near beautiful spots like Laguna de Apoyo, Masaya, and Granada. A truly inspiring experience to reconnect with nature and yourself. ❤️

I had such I wonderful time here with Anthony and Martina, they welcomed me into their home so beautifully, I especially loved our nightly board games. The work is very far I usually did an hour or two in the garden and then the other hours cooking in the kitchen. Anthony was super flexible about when I did the 5 hours each day which was great! There is lots to go on your day off because it's only a short bus ride to Granada, Lake apoyo or Masaya volcano. Overall I really enjoyed my time here, I highly recommend it!

I had great stay with Anthony and his mother. The garden is lovely and I helped him a lot with gardening. We planted a lot of seeds and took care about the garden. I could manage my worktime by my own so I started at 7 in the morning and took a break during midday and finished my work in the afternoon. Anthony provides three meals a day and his mom even taught me how to make fried plantain! In your free time you could go to Masaya, Granada or any other town in the area! I had a really good time and enjoyed every minute!

We had a great time staying with Anthony! His garden is beautiful!! He's growing different kind of vegetables and fruits and we learned about herbs. The working hours were fair, we always did a siesta in between, to avoid midday sun, but otherwise there was unfortunately not too much going on, because it is located next to a big street, but we did yoga almost every day, so it was very chill :)
