The Experience

My mother has bought a house to renovate and I will start this summer with the work. If you want to learn about rebuilding a house starting from four walls, we will build the floor slabs, the roofs, install windows, doors, water, electricity and heating systems. The house is located in a beautiful town in the Pyrenees, near the border with France and close to Andorra. You can spend a few days in an idyllic place.

Increíble! Jaume, Anna,los 5 niños y floc fueron muy buenos conmigo me hicieron sentir como en casa desde el primer momento que llegue, tuve la oportunidad de agradecer personalmente a Jaume por esta gran oportunidad y por abrir las puertas de su hogar a voluntarios como yo, que sin tener experiencias les brinda esa primer oportunidad, siempre formarán parte de mi vida y de mi historia gracias por todo el trabajo fue un poco cansado ,pero obtuve más de los esperado y también agradezco por eso,un fuerte abrazo a todos y recomiendo a cualquier persona este lugar con unos paisajes inmejorables

La experiencia es lo que esperaba, todavía más porque conocí a la familia de Jaime, quienes se mostraron siempre muy cálidos y afectuosos conmigo. El trabajo es algo duro, pero es lo que esperaba que fuera, además la casa está quedando maravillosa y eso te motiva a esforzarse. En cuanto al pueblo, tiene paisajes que cambian con constantemente dependiendo del clima y eso lo vuelve encantador. Si te gusta tener contacto con la naturaleza es un buen sitio. El pueblo donde puedes comprar algunas cosas queda a 18minutos por un sendero un tanto dificil para subir, pero facil para a bajar.

Desde que llegué a Montellà me sentí en el Paraíso, el lugar es hermoso y los atardeceres son puro arte. Jaume es una persona muy amable, que está siempre pendiente de enseñarte y hacerte sentir cómodo durante la tarea. Tanto él como toda su familia son seres hermosos, eso sí el premio se lo lleva el perro: Floc, siempre te llevaré en mi corazón!

The best wolrdpacker that has stayed at our house this summer, without a doubt, your dedication and your eagerness to learn, how you helped around the house and the calm and good atmosphere you created. The kids really enjoyed meeting you.

El lugar es hermoso! tal como lo describe es un paisaje idílico, Jaime y su familia son muy amables y los miembros de la comunidad son abiertos a compartir su cultura y hacerte sentir como en casa. El trabajo es cansado pero con pocas horas en el día se puede llevar muy bien. Se me dio lo acordado y más, con experiencias y lugares que conocí que me llenaron mucho. Recomendadisimo
