The place is very cozy and beautiful. I had the opportunity to hike, and the nature surrounding Lo Valdes is incredible. Francesco gives you the flexibility to carry out your tasks, and the schedule is respected. I will miss everyone very much. I highly recommend this volunteering experience!

My experience at Vitamonti was interesting and pleasant. It's a very beautiful place, surrounded by nature, ideal for disconnecting from the routine and enjoying the tranquility. However, I think a 15-day stay is enough, especially if you are an active and energetic person, since there are few activities to do and it can become a bit monotonous. Moreover, transportation is fairly limited, which makes getting around difficult. On the other hand, I want to highlight the kindness of the people who work there, always very attentive and willing to help.

It was an incredible experience staying at the accommodation, I enjoyed it very much. Francesco and Karime were wonderful hosts, always attentive, approachable and very humane. The girls we worked with there were also very lovely, a beautiful atmosphere was created. For a personal decision I had to shorten my stay, and Francesco fully understood. They even had the gesture of buying us food for Christmas. I recommend this experience to anyone who wants to connect with nature and experience something authentic, even if only for a while.

A very good experience. The place is one of the most beautiful places in the world, near mountains, waterfalls and rivers. The people are friendly and I can practice my Spanish. The only thing I didn't like is that there were no time cards for working hours, and it was a little difficult to take a day off. It is also a very isolated place. But otherwise, a wonderful experience as a volunteer. Thanks to the accommodation!
