Elmer was our host and he was very kind.la farm is a spectacular place, surrounded by nature.However, the experience did not meet our expectations, although we believe it can improve The listing mentioned help in photography and gardening, but we did not do photography and did perform household chores not mentioned.The place is very remote and access should be explained better: a steep path with luggage, two rivers without a bridge and risk in the rainy season. Elmer is pleasant, but there was a lack of clarity in the tasks.Additionally, he was absent for 3 days and we had to take care of the place, which we do not see as adequate.

Hello
Thank you very much for your visit.
It is very clear that we are located about 1.3 km from the beach or a 30-minute walk.
Jungle and farm with the crossing of two rivers.
140 visitor comments on this website.
The experience is very clear, but when looking for comfort it doesn't fit on the farm.
I am clearly outlining the obligations that our volunteers have to help here, along with the video that is very clear.
