I had a wonderful time with Tania and her family. They picked me up at the bus stop, provided delicious food, and I slept in my tent surrounded by great company.
The work was interesting too: we continued building a house and restored the vegetable garden.
A great volunteering experience for anyone who loves nature and good company. Highly recommended!

An experience filled with only positive things, a place that from the very first moment welcomes you; Tania and Maxi stand out for their quality as people, always very attentive and willing to listen and to go with the people we collaborate with on their project.

The communication was very timely at every stage of the process, and the place also lives up to everything it promises and even more.

There are many thanks, and I hope to be back there someday. Thank you very much for having me.

Ooh! Where to start, I've just left the place and I'm leaving with tears in my eyes, in just one week I connected with everyone and it was hard to leave. I made friends, I improved my English, I learned, I relaxed. Everything was positive and I'll be back! Thank you, thank you
