Jorge was a true gentleman from the moment I met him until the end of the three weeks I volunteered. Jorge has created an ambitious project that he is continuously working to expand and develop, meaning no two weeks are the same. And this project will probably always keep improving. Jorge was a great leader that respected the volunteers privacy and working hours while also ensuring that a team spirit was developed. He is always ready for a chat and he makes sure that the volunteers feel welcome in the community. Jorge also asks volunteers for suggestions for improvement in the house/project.

Jorge was a great host always friendly and upbeat, the work was tough but rewarding and varied. Overall I loved the stay the long weekends are great to do short trips to other parts of Oaxaca. The team side of the volunteering is also great with group meals and events for everyone. The days of community work are enjoyable and help give back to the local community. I would 100% recommend this project, Jorge is trying to do some great work and it was nice to be involved in it!

Great experience ! Jorge was a great host , respectful and always helpful. The project itself is a great idea and is an opportunity for anyone to learn lots of things about both the organization and mexican culture. The house is nothing luxurious but once you get used to it it feels like home . We both really enjoyed every day we have spent there and we definitely recommend for future volunteers.

The organization was a unique experience. We learned and helped with the process of making artisanal the organization as well as being part of the true Mexican culture and discover the hidden spots of Miahuatlán. Jorge was a great host, always helpful and ready to answer any question you need. I ll suggest this experience to any volunteer visiting the Oaxaca state.

I don't even know where to start from to describe how special this experience felt. I had a good feeling about volunteering at the organization but this exceeded my expectations in terms of authenticity, fun and hospitality. Prepare to work hard and not mess about but be assured the Jorge truly cares about you having a great experience and will go out of his ways to make you feel welcomed, looked after and to keep things fun. You're likely going to be the only foreigners in town, with the other volunteers, so if you're looking for a real Mexican experience you are going to love it here!
