The Experience

Hi, I need someone who can help with the tasks of the farm (animals care, sheld, fence building) and works regarding the vegetable patch, irrigation...Good physical condition is important. 'll need some help with the household. The farm is located at 5km from the nearest village. It is very a quiet environment! This place is generally composed by 1 man and 2 ladies. No experience is required, I just want someone who enjoy nature, animals.

Lydia es una excelente anfitriona.🫶 Se preocupa y ocupa para que tus dias sean agradables. Siempre dispuesta a ayudarte en lo que necesites! El voluntariado me permitió conectar tanto con ella como con el lugar, haciéndome sentir comoda y en confianza. La Finca, los animales y su hogar son el completamento ideal para conectar con la naturaleza y su tranquilidad. Muy agradecida con Lydia y por esta experiencia tan llena de aprendizajes. 💚

El voluntariado en la Finca de Lydia fue una experiencia hermosa y gratificante. Aprendí muchísimo a su lado, desde trabajar en la huerta y los animales, también me enseñó comidas típicas españolas muy ricas. Me mostró Madrid, fue muy generosa conmigo, fue como mi familia. Es hermoso pasar tiempo con Lydia, van a conocer una mujer amable, servicial, culta, buena persona. Tuve la alegría y honor de conocerla, es una persona muy buena. Pase unas semanas maravillosas, Lydia cumple con todo y más de lo establecido. El lugar es precioso, muy lindo para conectar con la naturaleza...

Fue mi primera experiencia y estuvo increíble, Lydia es muy divertida y está al pendiente de que no te falte nada y de mostrarte nuevos sitios, las horas de trabajo se respetaron y fue interesante aprender sobre el funcionamiento de la granja. Sé está rodeado de naturaleza y las vistas son preciosas, además tomando el autobús puedes visitar Madrid muy fácil. Lo recomiendo al 100% fue una gran experiencia, sin duda volvería (:
