We had an amazing time! The volunteer work was balanced, allowing us to enjoy the surroundings and our private space. Despite English not being our first language, communication was great. Special thanks to Cecilia for her patience, Rebeca for being such a kind host, and her mother for making us feel at home. The location is spectacular: deep in the forest, surrounded by nature and peace. It's the perfect place to disconnect and recharge with zero city noise. We highly recommend this experience to anyone looking for tranquility!

A few weeks ago, my friend and I volunteered at the farm; the place is very beautiful and the work wasn't very hard, four hours at most helping with the camp kitchen. When we arrived, it puzzled us a bit that we were left so to our own devices, and that perhaps this clashed a bit with our expectations, since the transport didn't allow us to move around much. It's true that the owner provided us with some information and was very busy with the farm chores, so she couldn't take us back and forth all the time. The accommodation was very good and we had everything we needed to work.
