Nuestra experiencia fue MARAVILLOSA. Es una casa grande con una familia hermosa donde desde el comienzo de la comunicación hasta el momento de finalización del voluntariado nos sentimos parte de la familia. El trato siempre fue respetuoso, nos ayudaron con el transporte, a conocer partes de la zona para pasear, y con trámites que necesitábamos hacer. Nos brindaron un espacio muy cómodo en la casa, habitación y baño privado, y la cocina a disposición nuestra. Comimos delicioso cada día. Sobre las tareas nos brindaron flexibilidad de horario y materiales necesarios. AGRADECIDAS DE CORAZÓN.
