The Experience

We are Ester and Manuel, a Spanish-American couple who bought a house with land in the Galicia countryside, and our project is to create a beautiful home with an orchard, to live in a sustainable way, growing our own vegetables, and hosting events related to wellness and spirituality. The main tasks now are: gardening, restore a stone house, finish the chimney room before winter! Please do not use IA to write us! Save water!

Really nice! Ester and Manuel are so welcoming. Everything was perfect, and I had a really good time with them. The place is beautiful, the meals were delicious, and the work in the garden was really satisfying. I recommend going to help them. Thank you, Ester and Manuel!

Ester and Manu are two very kind people. They live in the heart of nature, and I recommend them to everyone who wants to disconnect and learn. They speak Spanish and English.
