The Experience

Estamos en tiempo de mantenimientos, podas y traslado de árboles. Ayudanos a organizar la parcela para prepararnos para el proximo verano. las labores de invierno son pesadas, hace frio, pero es cuando más trabajamos y más aprendemos de la mantención de una ecoparcela en armonía con la naturaleza...

Many thanks to Paula and her family. Here you are welcomed into the family with open arms. I felt very comfortable. Paula is an incredible person.

I loved my experience working with Paula and her family, it's such a special place. They are very welcoming and accommodating, they make you feel like part of the family. The farm is beautiful and the work is fair. I mainly fed the animals in the mornings and tended to the gardens. They have a beautiful pool to dip into when the afternoons become very hot. I would definitely recommend experiencing this beautiful place ❤️

This experience was truly transformative for me! I loved being able to work with the animals and plants in the farm. Not to mention that it is located in a stunning landscape, surrounded by mountains. Paula was very responsive and welcoming which was super great, having it been my first volunteer experience. Unfortunately she was gone on vacation for a lot of stay so I didn't really get to know her that well. The sleeping quarters were also a little disappointing, it is not insulated therefore the temperature fluctuates a ton. Otherwise, I enjoyed my time here. Thanks so much Paula.

Gracias por tu estadía y que bueno que pudiste sentir la fuerza de nuestras montañas, también lamento que compartimos poco, pero espero que puedas regresar y conocer este lugar en invierno, es más frío, pero más verde... en chile el frío es fuerte, ¡pero no con nieve, entonces los chilenos no somos tan expertos en aislar bien las casas, estamos trabajando en mejorar la casita de voluntarios, cada día mejora más... te mandamos un gran abrazo y que sigas viajando, conociendo y teniendo nuevas experiencias! abrazos...

My experience at Paula's place was an amazing. They hospitality made me feel right at home and I felt I am part of family-not as a volunteer. Tasks are very simple and the hours flexible. Paula is a kind and very generous host.Any questions at all you may have, Paula right there to help.I learned many useful things for me from Paula and at her place. I really enjoyed my time in Curacavi. I am Thankful !Muchas gracias!
