It was so good and fun and I learnt so many cool things and had so many cool experiences. The couple are really nice and fun people and the other volunteers there made the experience even better. I would definitely recommend it.

If you're looking for amazing hosts this is your place. the community and Mattu will treat you like you were in home, perfect place to connect with nature, delicious food options and few hours of physical work that you enjoy with the others volunteers. Definitely I'll go back soon.

I loved being so close to nature and learning how a sustainable lifestyle is possible — farming with respect and giving back to the land at the same time. The main volunteer tasks included helping with the animals and on the fields. Since I enjoy cooking, I spent most time in the kitchen. I could try new things, like cooking over an open fire to handling a machete. The sleeping accommodation was basic but cozy. It was especially nice to get to know the community and Matu and hear more about their travels. The food was absolutely delicious, healthy, and vegetarian.

El rancho es un lugar muy tranquilo. la comunidad y Matu son personas muy agradables y tienen una historia muy interesante. En el poco tiempo que llevo he aprendido mucho, ya que el tema de vivir en el campo me gusta. Y el lugar va mejorando día a día. Eso sí, la señal es débil, por lo que no tenemos mucho acceso a internet, pero en lo personal poco me afecta (eso afectó un poco al usar la plataforma y programar fecha). Y bueno, aquí sigo en este bonito lugar.
