About the experience in: Fusagasugá, Colombia
Colombia
The farm is a beautiful place and the whole family is very dear, the food is delicious. However the person in charge of the farm, Mr. Laureano, is someone who doesn't even greet you; it seems he has had problems before with guests and other workers for not being very kind. The volunteer conditions were changed; initially they said 5 hours per week, then it changed to 5 hours per day for 6 days a week, to which I agreed, but I was also told that I would have access to two meals, and then Carolina told me that I should prepare them myself in coordination with Mr. Laureano (very unfriendly).

VJ is a beautiful place and a great location for volunteering as there are many tasks. Being with all the lovely animals is a treat and Diana's food is very delicious. Requirement is beginner English or beginner Spanish but English is not spoken here and beginner Spanish is not enough. The tasks were different than expected. I did almost only cleaning tasks (which is okay, but not in the description). The first day I learned how to feed the animals and got told I could do this the next day but then another volunteer arrived and she got to do those tasks every day. I would still recommend!

We decided on volunteering at the farm because of the animals, task description and the low language requirements. The animals were awesome (lovely dogs, cute little cow, pigs and many more). The tasks were not communicated correctly. We did a lot of cleaning (pool, chairs, driveway, etc) which is a daily task. Expect to do something similar as well. Language Barriers killed the experience a little. The Team does not speak English, so I would advise to have Intermediate Spanish to get a full experience. All in all we had a good time though, with room for improvement.

Villajilito es una experiencia para conectar con la naturaleza y los animalitos. Hay muchas actividades para hacer (cuidar animales, limpieza, jardinería etc). Mi tarea fue el cuidado de animales y fui muy feliz con esa tarea, todos los animales son hermosos. Se respetaron horarios y tareas. Es muy fácil llegar y muchas actividades para conocer Fusagasugá. Todos fueron amables y respetuosos. Diana cocina delicioso, así que pude disfrutar mucho la comida.Compartí con más voluntarios y disfruté hermosos atardeceres. Gracias por la experiencia, recomendados.
