Masia Can Casas

We are located in the middle between Girona and Barcelona (each 50 minutes by car or 90 minutes by public transport), a natural park with hiking paths starts just in the backyard, lots of cyclists come across our village every day and we have the mediterrean just 4 kilometers away. So if you want to experience the "Catalunian experience", this is the place to be!

"The project" actually consists of Claudia and Soeren. We relocated some years ago from Germany to Spain (Barcelona) and finally found our place in the area of "Montnegre" on the countryside where we are now living and want to turn our place into a mindfull, sustainable nice place for ourselfs and the guests of our Hostal Rural "Can Casas".

You can expect a very good level of hospitality of Claudia, who not only is a super-chef and artist in painting but also a very kind host. Working with Soeren will hopefully provide you with some new craft skills, as he is a allround craftsman and working 7 days a week to turn Can Casas into a nice place to stay for everybody ,-). But we are always on the lookout to learn new things ourselfs - so speaking about and exchanging ideas is important to us.

The "junior members" of our team are Lima and Pipo, our 2 young heartwarming beagle mix dogs. Both try to distract everyone from work with their desire for cuddling sessions and dog walks where you are also invited to join ;-)

My experience was spectacular. I spent incredible moments with Soeren and Claudia.
It was a pleasure to work with Soeren; he always explained everything we were doing, in addition to helping me with all the tasks. Claudia's food was simply perfect! And she always asked me if I needed anything.
I am very grateful for the opportunity and for the tours; everything was amazing!! I also really enjoyed meeting Pipo and Lima, two very friendly dogs ❤️.

My stay was fantastic.. the work is a bit tiring, but being surrounded by the forest is a unique experience, and the view is spectacular. The best part of my stay, however, was getting to know Soeren and Claudia.. truly wonderful people, who are very kind, thoughtful and friendly, and who make you feel right at home.

I felt very welcomed from the very first day. Soeren and Claudia are amazing hosts who truly care about their volunteers. The work was a new experience for me, and Soeren always took some time to explain about the nature and the tasks so I learned a lot! Claudia prepared incredible meals that honestly felt like fine dining with big portions and she always made sure I had everything I needed. It was fun and a very rewarding experience overall. I’m really grateful for my time there and would definitely recommend it to other travelers. 🙂

I have no other option than to agree with all the great reviews Sören and Claudia already have. After my stay, I feel relaxed, more at peace, and inspired. The surroundings of their the home are breathtaking, and the house is just as beautiful. They really care About the nature and the sustainability which I admire Sören and Claudia make a great team. The work with Sören was very versatile and he always took the time to explain what we were doing. Claudia's kitchen is just as versatile, and the food was always delicious. I felt safe, comfortable, and truly welcome. I would definitely recommend!

This was my first volunteer experience and it was a great one. It's ideal to learn about sustainability and reconnect with nature, but be ready for hard work and physical effort, there's always something new to do. I learned a lot from Sören and truly enjoyed Claudia's meals. Getting there takes a few transfers, but it's totally worth it. They speak Spanish, English and German, and are very kind. I'd love to return to improve my German and learn more.
