Luis, Katya and extended family were amazing at welcoming me in and understanding the ethos of their life and how they have created their a sustainable project. I loved that we ate together, cooked together and worked together and they were happy to answer every question i had and took time to teach me new things. Painting the mural, understanding about the cultivation of vatiius plants as complimentary species and lear ing abiut the hyydroponic system and las abejas were highlights. Accomodation was simple, with plenty of rugs and limited wifi which i loved! Thank you

Katya + Luis are great welcome who welcomed us onto their eco-farm, teaching us all new and wonderful things. We enjoyed the work, it was physical and great to see the changes we made to the farm. Shifts are reasonable too, 5 days a week from 8.30-1.30 and able to take week days off if we wanted to go and explore Chiloé as during the weekends places can be shut. Our only struggle was that the accommodation was quite basic and got very cold at nights and in the mornings. Overall, it was a very rewarding experience + we got to practise our Spanish too - thank you for your patience!😆

Perfect if you want to be fully immersed in nature, Luis and Katja are so kind and thoughtful and very generous with their home 🥰 Tasks were varied: weeding, deconstruction, painting, bees and more. Delicious lunches and lots of goats!

Katya and Luis are good hosts and I really enjoyed my stay on the farm. There is a good variation in the work and it is fun to do!

It was my first experience living and working on a rural and (almost) self-sufficient farm and I learned a lot- from growing lettuce in a hydroponic system, construction, harvesting honey, taking care of the animals and more. The work could sometimes be difficult in the hot sun or pouring rain, but it gives you the real idea of the farm life. Katya and Luis were great hosts and have big plans for the future! It was a lot of fun also getting to know the animals and see two goat births while there! Chiloe is also a beautiful place to explore on your days off.

I enjoyed my experience here a lot! You feel like you're completely surrounded in nature, in a secluded part of the world. We did something different everyday, but be prepared for repetitive work! However, being out in the fresh air, no matter the job is a great way to spend your morning. Katya and Flaca(the baby goat) were lovely and shared their home with us, and cooked delicious meals! Be prepared for lots of cold and rain, in the winter months but you only work half the day and then the rest was free to explore and relax. Definitely would recommend!

Una increíble experiencia la cual te permite desconectar de todo por un rato y abrirte camino para conectar con cosas que antes no hubieras hecho… En la estadía uno se siente lleno de amor y siempre con una rica comida 😋. Siempre se tiene lo esencial, sin ningún lujo pero lo necesario que te permite hacer de todo. Se tiene un montón de trabajo por lo que se recomienda llevar ropa para ensuciar con tierra y botas de agua para el rocío de la mañana 😊( si son friolentos como yo recomiendo llevar ropa abrigada para la mañana jaja, pero nada muy terrible)

La granja es un lugar súper lindo para aprender y compartir, katya y Luis te hacen sentir como en casa🫶, el lugar es súper tranquilo rodeado de verde, puedes ver 3 volcanes y el cielo más estrellado que he visto hasta ahora! los trabajos se van alternando según la necesidad pero katya y Luis siempre están atentos a que estes cómodo, además están súper abiertos para enseñarte sobre su trabajo ahí y que puedas conocer más sobre la isla. Estoy feliz de haber compartido aquí, me voy con muchos aprendizajes! 🫂 Gracias gracias Katya, Luis, sra Magaly, Naty💚
