Mi estancia en la granja fue una experiencia muy enriquecedora, llena de aprendizajes, especialmente me ayudó a conectarme conmigo mismo. Pepito y su esposa son personas maravillosos, y unos excelentes anfitriones, siempre pendientes de tí. Aprendí mucho con ellos, a pesar del poco tiempo compartido, entonces es una experiencia que la recomiendo vivir a todos los viajeros. Yo estoy muy satisfecho. El lugar es maravilloso, un espacio para conectar con la gente, con la naturaleza y descubrir una visión diferente de la vida. Muchas gracias.

Estar na Finca e conviver com a família é extremamente prazeroso. O espaço é lindo, cheio de árvores frutíferas e a alimentação é deliciosa. Aprendemos muito sobre culinária e sobre o bioma local, além de poder conhecer os arredores e fazer ótimos passeios. Os anfitriões são muito flexíveis em relação aos horários de trabalho e tarefas.

O sítio é um lugar lindo e perfeito para se conectar com a energia do mar. Os anfitriões te colocam como parte da família e você vivência uma imersão na rotina deles, com muitas receitas, passeios de caiaque, produzir chocolate e aprendizados sobre o lugar que está a finca. Além disso, o trabalho é ajudar com tarefas que o lugar precisa, desde recolher lixo da praia até auxiliar em alguma construção que esteja acontecendo no momento. Recomendo esse voluntariado e agradeço pela experiência que tivemos lá! :)

Fue maravilloso estar en la granja. El lugar, es increíble, a medio paso de la playa y rodeado de árboles frutales que degustamos a diario. El proyecto en la finca, es muy motivador y aprendí mucho en diferentes aspectos. Por otro lado, Johanna y Pepito, además de ser unos huéspedes de primera y hacerme sentir como en casa, nos enseñaron lugares maravillosos de la zona. Fue una experiencia de 10!
