I was able to connect with nature and learn a lot, especially about syntropic agriculture. It's a great place to meditate or unwind. They treated me very well and I never lacked anything.

The experience at proyeto was wonderful! Jane and Mauri are excellent hosts; they provided us with everything we needed for our stay. Delicious family-style food and the warmth of home. They also taught us a lot about life in nature, the importance of family, the abundance of the earth, and ecological awareness. We are very grateful for sharing these unforgettable days πŸ«‚ Much gratitude to dear proyeto! πŸŒ±πŸ’šβœ¨

We had a beautiful experience at the project! The hospitality of Jane and Mauri was very kind and allowed us to have a relaxed stay with everything we needed. They are an incredibly brave and life-conscious family, we loved getting to know their vision, their way of living and participating for a few weeks in that. Without a doubt, there is a lot to learn volunteering with you, from what syntropy is to respectful parenting. An all-around experience! Thank you very much, Jane, Mauric and family!

Mauricio and his partner have a lovely family. Even the youngest child in this family has wisdom about nature, a variety of plants and trees, and their care. I thank you for sharing it. They fulfilled the working hours and were patient with me as a beginner. I left earlier than I expected because of the cold. Apart from them, the place is very lonely and remote. Fortunately there was a family friend also volunteering, who was very collaborative. For those who enjoy time alone and nature, it is ideal. I learned many things :)

My experience at the project was very special. The food was excellent and plentiful, and the learning was truly transformative. Mauri, his family and the visitors were extremely welcoming, making me feel at home. The work is easy and with flexible hours. I am very grateful for everything I experienced and I carry these lessons with me. I would return and recommend it to everyone.
