I couldn't have imagined a better time at the farm. Claudia and Luisa were super welcoming from the start. You can tell they care so much for the volunteers, the horses, and the entire project. The work is easy and there were opportunities to ride a few times a week. Both Claudia and Luisa would take volunteers on day trips, events in the village, the cold springs, and other excursions on off time. I'm so thankful for my experience there and would 100% love to come back!

There is no other experience magical than this one!!! Learning about the horses and culture with Luisa and Claudia was something beyond special. Learning about the horses has given me a deeper appreciation for these special animals. The work is worth it when you see how happy the students are and how unique it is to take visitors on trail rides up the mountains to see the beauty that Galicia has to offer. Meeting people from different countries I and bonding over many topics was the cherry on top! Thank you, Ella, for being an English gem that's makes this place extra special!

I had such a great time at the farm! As my first trip with Worldpackers and first solo trip in general I couldn't have asked for better hosts. Claudia and Luisa were so welcoming and helpful with anything I needed. We had many fun adventures, amazing food, and good times on the trails, at parties, or just hanging out at the house. I enjoyed meeting so many amazing people and of course the dogs and horses! Definitely hope to come back!!

I had a great time at the farm!! It was my first solo travel as well as my first experience with worldpackers. And Luisa and Claudia were so great and welcoming! It didn't take long til I was comfortable with them and the other volunteers. The whole experience was just great, amazing food, lovely horses and good fun with everyone. They also made sure we always had a good stay🫶🏻 Such a good experience and I already miss all the people, dogs and horses💕 I really want to come back sometime🥰

Luisa and Claudia were such wonderful and welcoming hosts! I had an amazing three weeks in Galicia — the food was great, the horses were sweet, and the other volunteers, along with Ella, made the experience really special. They took us on fun day trips to Portugal, local markets, parties, natural hot and cold springs, and of course plenty of lovely rides. There was always something to look forward to. They also have two really lovely dogs that I'm definitely going to miss. It's been such a warm and memorable experience — I'm sure I'll be back again!
