This was my first time volunteering, and It couldn't be a better place to start. I was very welcomed by everyone, I had a great time there, people are easygoing, helpful and patient. The work is simple and enjoyable, the food is amazing, the nature around is beautiful and it is a very quiet and relaxing place to be. Thank you Michael and Katy for making this an unforgettable and beautiful experience. Maybe see you soon! :)
