The Experience

En invierno, la montaña llama a cuidar la tierra: limpiamos ramas, chipeamos, hacemos leña y preparamos el suelo para reforestar. Aprenderás a usar machete o motosierra con respeto y conciencia. Compartimos fogatas, comida caliente y cantos que abrigan el alma. Este trabajo no es solo físico, es un acto de amor por la tierra. Si resuenas con eso, ¡te esperamos con los brazos abiertos!

I had an incredible time the farm! I feel so grateful to of had Paula as my host for my first World Packers trip. She is a very intelligent, talented, and considerate woman. I felt comfortable and supported the entire time. I loved meeting locals, salsa classes, sharing great meals and laughs with fellow volunteers, and being taken on beautiful hikes. I learned more about myself, as well as sustainability, through daily tasks, taking care of the land and the animals, and through the general way of living. I would recommend this experience to those seeking peace, adventure and connection. <3

My experience at the farm was fantastic. I stayed for three weeks and the time just flew by. I learned so much about nature, eco-friendly living, caring for animals, and building. Paula goes out of her way to make you feel at home, and she loves to share her hobbies with you, like salsa dancing. Besides the work, there was plenty of free time to relax and do activities with the other volunteers. I would recommend it to everyone.

This was my first experience with Worldpackers and I really enjoyed my time at the farm. I got to learn a lot of new things while living on the parcela with Paula. She always made sure that we felt comfortable and even took us with her to some local events, like a salsa night or the local Oktoberfest. There were also other voluntarios during my stay, which made it even nicer. I can really recommend this place!
