Rainer, Myla, and Elsa are such kind, welcoming people, and I had a great time on their farm! The land is incredible, and the work was not too taxing. I was able to practice my Spanish quite a bit and connect with volunteers from completely different countries than my own. I would definitely recommend this for anyone looking to spend some time outside or on a farm.

Rainer and Mayla are fantastic people, the place is amazing, and it was a fantastic two weeks. The work is perfect and not too difficult; both of them were incredibly helpful, teaching me even more English as well as the basics of farming and construction. Mayla's cooking is delicious, and Rainer is helpful with everything—giving you all the freedom you want, provided you work hard, as is only right.

We really enjoyed the work, the beautiful surroundings, and spending time with the other volunteers. The construction work was rewarding, though there were also quite a few unexpected chores included in the daily routine.

However, we cannot fully recommend this host due to communication issues. The host was quite volatile and unexpectedly told us and another helper to leave a week early with no clear reason given. Future volunteers should be aware that management can be unpredictable.
