Without a doubt I recommend this experience. Akash was very kind to lend me his bike, we met for a few hours watching series. The activities are very "chill", if you are a fan of nature you can help with suggestions,
I hope your garden grows much largerI hope your garden grows much largeur. At all times I felt confortable.
Just considering that, the train for long distances does not have many schedules, but you can definitely enjoy the things around.

Akash is a lovely host who is great for having a conversation with. His home is comfortable and the work was handy. Highly recommend.

A volunteering opportunity that lets you discover the Algarve at your own pace, with a respectful host and a simple and flexible organization. The setting is calm, pleasant and it gives you a lot of autonomy. The experience is ideal if you need to be useful across a variety of tasks and if you also want to move and explore the surroundings. Please note that getting around requires a bit of organization if you want to make the most of it (budget, ferry schedules to the beach, transportation...). Thank you, Akash, for your hospitality and your trust!
