My time on the farm's farm was truly an enriching experience. I learnt so many valuable skills from her that I will take throughout my life. We ate everything from the land and cultivated a strong relationship to it. The cabin is perfect to have your own space to relax. She showed me a lot around the local area and I got to experience some wonderful cultural festivities. the farm is a very remarkable woman. Her generosity, care and kindness made me feel at home. I would highly recommend! Gracias the farm ❤️

Me and my girlfriend stayed there for 3 weeks. the farm had a whole little house for us kitchen and bathroom included. She cooked everyday for us even on the weekends and there was always enough and also very tasty food from her garden. We worked during her week in her garden amd on the werkend she always had some trips (to the sea or her friends or even further) we could join. Her pets are so lovley and esters personality is just very positive and fun to be around. We enjoyed our trip a lot and wish her the best !!!

We had a great experience at the farm's house, and would recommend it to everyone! We worked during the week, completing tasks such as building a greenhouse, potting plants, building composts and more. Outside of working hours we spent time at the beach, exploring the local area and spending time in her beautiful garden with her pets! the farm is a wonderful host, who was more than happy to take us with her to the beach, welcome us to enjoy breakfast and meals with her, and was very patient with our lack of Spanish and helping us to learn. We miss the farm and her yummy cooking already!

We had a wonderful time with the farm. Her garden is beautiful & we could've spent all our time there even when we weren't helping with jobs such as potting plants & building structures. The private cabin is really nice and so are the local towns & villages with beautiful rivers & beaches. the farm made us feel completely at home. She made sure we were confident with tasks, was incredibly patient with our (very limited) Spanish & enjoyed helping us learn. Her cooking was great & she gave us opportunities to join trips out & be part of family occasions. We loved her two cuddly cats and dog too!

I miss you all, and thank you so much for being so dedicated and creative. My garden has changed 100% 💯, and I also have another expectation; you've given me a great lesson.

The farm is a lovely person and fantastic hostess. In addition to ordinary Handyman tasks, we repaired greenhouses, built composts and doing gardening. The accommodation is great: we had our own bedroom and a small kitchen. the farm was always helpful and had a lot of patience with our beginner Spanish. Not only did we learn a lot of Spanish (Basic Spanish is really recommended) but above all we got to know the fresh, vegetarian, delicious Chilean cuisine through the farm. Thanks for all!

The vegetable garden is a wonderful place to be at peace, to connect with the land and the little animals that surround it; since I didn’t have much internet connection, I took the opportunity to stay disconnected. the house is a person who is very kind and cordial with me, however, during my stay I also had a sense that she distrusted me and, in some situations, I felt that there were certain prejudices toward me for being Argentine. Perhaps it was a personal perception, but it was a feeling I had and that influenced how I lived the experience.

The house is an excellent person, very wise, and it has a lot of energy; it requires quite a bit of help in the house and works hard to maintain it. Its commitment to ecology is admirable, and, moreover, it mostly cooks what is produced in its house, and it is delicious.

Estas dos semanas en la casa fueron una experiencia mágica para mí y mi hijo. la casa es una persona cálida, generosa y llena de amor. Cada día nos sorprendía con comidas diferentes, siempre sanas y deliciosas. El trabajo en la huerta fue tranquilo y muy enriquecedor, aprendimos mucho sobre plantas y cuidado de la tierra. la casa nos llevó a vivir aventuras inolvidables: hacer sandboard en las dunas, recolectar mariscos durante la marea baja, buscar hongos y explorar paisajes de la zona. La cabaña era muy cómoda. la casa tiene un alma hermosa y siempre estará en nuestros corazones 💚🙏🥰

Mi experiencia aquí no fue buena, había comenzado bien pero con el pasar de los días la casa comenzó a hacernos sentir incómodos con sus tratos, al parecer no le caímos bien y en vez de decirnos que nos nos quería en su casa, comenzó a tener destratos con nosotros, todo le molestaba y llegó a decirnos que no confiaba en nosotros, bastante difícil llevar una convivencia con estás formas, cuando ya nos dimos cuenta de que deseabamos irnos se lo comentamos y le dijimos que buscaríamos otro voluntariado y en vez de ayudarnos nos pidió que saquemos nuestras cosas para hacer lugar a otros voluntarios.

I'm so sorry Lukas, you're not a bad person, it's just that you didn't know how to position yourself, with the trust and appreciation that Sete showed, you didn't have to abuse, you touched my vulnerability, be careful in life, respect and know how to keep yourself in your place, you brought me trouble, I hope it doesn't happen to you again, much success and blessings

Nuestra experiencia en la huerta la casa tuvo cosas buenas y otras malas, los primeros dias todo iba muy bien ella nos hacia sentir en casa y en familia, parecía ser una mujer que realmente se preocupaba por nuestro bienestar, pero a media que fue pasando el tiempo esa imagen que mostro se empezo a caer y su trato no termino siendo bueno, nos hacia sentir incómodos con su manera de decirnos las cosas y muchas veces no la entendiamos.. nos quedamos 23 días, cuando sentimos que ya era hora de buscar otro voluntariado donde si nos traten con respeto y amor, no nos dio tiempo y tuvimos que irnos.

Grisell, can I tell you something? Your attitude affected me; I even felt that you were throwing me out of my house. Control your temper and get yourself together; we all have bad moments. You are an adult; behave like one. A big hug and many blessings.
