The Experience

As we are getting older we now need to enlist some help, not only with the general day-to-day running but also with an entire list of projects which we would like to get done over the next 3 years. With the aim of further self-sufficiency. Converting the rest of our house into a dormitory & common/conference room for travelers & others who wish to come to workshops, which we ambitiously would like to set up for teaching Energy work & Healing.

It was our first volunteering experience and it couldn't have been better 💛 Vanessa and Martin were very kind and made us feel comfortable from the very first day. Martin has a great sense of humor and was always flexible with the schedules, especially when it was raining. The tasks were easy to do, the accommodation were very comfortable, and Vanessa's food… absolutely delicious! 🤭 We are leaving with very beautiful memories ✨

We had a wonderful experience with Martin and Vanessa. They were lovely with us at all times. Martin was very clear with instructions during the working hours and Vanessa was always asking if we needed anything. The food and the conversations were amazing. Overall an incredible experience.

I had a wonderful experience with Martín and Vanessa. Working with Martín is super easy, and Vanessa's meals are incredible. I felt very comfortable and welcomed. The place is amazing, perfect to disconnect from the city. It was an excellent choice for my first time as a volunteer. I would definitely come back!
