Cleaning up the farm surrounding

Colombia

At first, it can be a bit challenging if you're not used to being around animals, but over time you build a beautiful bond with them. The tasks included feeding, grooming, taking the animals in and out of the pens, catching llamas (fun and tricky!), and going on walks with them. The food was delicious. There are forests nearby for walking and bikes available to explore nearby towns. A very special experience—perfect for nature and animals lovers.

Sabine an Manfred welcome you to their house and it feels like your own! They lend you clothes if necessary and the boots for work. It's really cold so I would suggest using thermic clothing and also old ones since you work outside with the animals. Flip flops to be around the house are recommended!! The food is excellent and they are always open to get you to the train station in case you want to visit another city :)

Manfred and Sabine usually always provided a meal they prepared for you. Sometimes you are on your own to cook, which is nice sometimes. It was a nice thing for them to cook the meals and share dinner time together. There were a few time I was insulted for not doing something because I do not normally work around farms, or I was using my own mind to think about my tasks. The animals are amazing. They have unique personalities. Bring slippers and warm clothes in the winter, the house is not heated, unless you heat your own room and don't leave. Don't hit the horses.

I am really shocked about this review. You stayed with us for six weeks, we accepted all your personal differences to us or others and accepted that you did not do all the tasks that we wanted you to do. Well, I guess you need a host who let you do your thing instead of following clear guidelines. But as a host you need to be strict if you have always different people handling your animals. Wishing you and your next host a good experience together.

If you love animals then this is the place to be. I already have experience on a farm but there's always new things to learn. Be prepared for real farm work the tasks are cleaning the animals and feeding them We start in the morning and finish when all our task are done . We always had lunch and dîner together like a big family. Manfred and sabine cooked good meals and meat from the farm. The lamas are adorable and it was a nice experience to go on a walk with them. Be prepared to fall in love with the cats.
