Our experience was more than wonderful, Laura and Miguel opened the doors of HIS FAMILY, each with a well defined personality (and by this we mean his children) adorable and good brothers. It was our first experience as worldpackers, our first experience in another continent (we are from America, Chile) and we only have words of thanks for all of you (Laura, Miguel, Ollie, Kadness, Leia, Bilbo, Rob and Delilah) never change. We will definitely go back.

This was our - my and my boyfriend's - first experience and it couldn't have been better. The house for the home is very clean and spacious, besides the bedroom, has a bathroom, living room and a kitchen. Laura and Miguel were very kind, making us feel at home and they are very fun people to get along with. They have 5 cute dogs that are part of the family. The work was not tiring and there was enough free time. They several times hiked us to the train station, making it very easy to get to know new places. We highly recommend the experience and hope to return someday!!
