The Experience

I am looking for volunteers to rehabilitate a 1950s apartment, respecting traditional materials and techniques such as hydraulic tiles, wood, and lime mortar. You will participate in a historic-value project that will become a home and a psychology clinic. Ideal for those who enjoy learning and working in restoration.

Had a great time at the host's place. The apartment is located right by the train station, and even though it's being renovated it is nice and good to live in. The tasks are fun for people who like working with their hands and are not too hard. the host is really nice and the other volunteers were awesome. Everything promised was fulfilled. Highly recommended!

I stayed at the host's house in Oviedo, Asturias, and it was a wonderful experience. the host is an incredibly kind, attentive, and flexible person, both with schedules and the tasks to be done. The house is still a work in progress, with many things being repaired or rebuilt, but it has already become a beautiful home where you will never miss a good morning, meaningful conversations, shared meals, and coffee breaks. I highly recommend staying with the host, helping with the renovation project, and taking the opportunity to explore the beautiful region of Asturias.

The host was muito bonito experience. I was there littlebit over a one week and it started to actually feel like home. the host was trusting and very reasonable in every realms. Jobs were according to what you can do, and the main goal was to enjoy our times there while working on something. The Casa has dust and projects everywhere, but sleeping arrangements and other living felt natural still and we did not have any problems what so ever. Thank you the host and other volunteers for this wonderfull experince :)

This was our second month in the host's place. I want to add to the previous rating the host's commitment toward the LGBTQ+ community, making this a super safe and inclusive place. These months I have felt very supported, and that is a lot when you are far from the host. So I just have to say a big thank you!
