The Experience

In January 2018 we purchased an abandoned villa build in the mid XIX century by a rich emigree and ever since we've been focused in saving this piece of history for posterity. in 2024 we managed to complete the first phase of the project and the fun starts now. 2025 season we'll focus on the south wing. Foundation reinforce, west wall rebuild, roof rebuild and first floor rebuild. I'm confident we can accomplish the first really visible results.

Suso and Myriam were wonderful hosts and willing to accommodate any deadlines or needs I had. I was the video editor for Suso, and he was very willing to let me have a lot of the creative freedom and work with him. The food was great and felt very family-oriented. If you're looking for a bit of a technology detox up in the mountains, the project is a great place to go, they'll treat right and genuinely care for you and your wellbeing.

They were very welcoming and so helpful, especially with getting around and to the cities close by. I learned a lot, mostly things I did NOT thing I would- but that's even better. I had to leave a bit earlier and that wasn't an issue at all so A for flexibility :) It does get a bit chilly up there so I'd suggest bringing some sweaters!!

Suso and Myriam were incredible the entire time, it was my second volunteer job and made me feel welcomed and apart of the home. Food was delicious and on time I even got to learn a few recipes. I learnt a lot about construction and farming, and met a lot of other volunteers. Thanks again for this experience and I wish you the best of luck!
