Para mí lo primero es la seguridad y estar en un lugar tranquilo, sobre todo porque soy mujer. Algo que resaltar es la ubicación del lugar, queda cerca a la zona urbana de la vereda y tiene paisajes hermosos, pues en el sector cultivan café y cítricos, las mandarinas más ricas. Son hospitalarios y cumplen hasta con un poco más de la comida que indica la vacante de voluntariado. Alex es una persona muy empática y atenta. Les recomiendo ir a La Cascada del Caballero que queda cerca al lugar. Si son apasionados por el bosque como yo, esté es el voluntariado que necesitan. Gracias a Alex por todo!

El hostal es muy lindo. La atención de Alex y su mamá es realmente buena. El lugar es súper tranquilo y muy seguro. Te puedes ir a recorrer los alrededores con la seguridad de saber que nada te va a pasar que para mí como mujer es muy importante. El pueblo es pequeño en con tal para hacer hay muy poco, sin embargo, el lugar es ideal para desconectar, descansar y conectar con la naturaleza. Además en los días libres de puede aprovechar para ir a Guadalupe que queda a hora y media y conocer otros atractivos turísticos

A minha estadia na pousada foi super tranquila e enriquecedora. Alex e dona Mercedes são pessoas muito amáveis e me senti em casa desde o primeiro dia. O trabalho é tranquilo e as refeições são maravilhosas e fartas (acho que ganhei uns 3kg 😅). Passei o natal e a virada de ano na pousada e ganhei uma família em Santander, Colômbia. Gracias por todo, Alex e señora Mercedes. ❤️

Me gustó la experiencia, Alex es muy empático y amable, aunque es importante que todo el equipo de anfitriones tengan la misma sintonía. Se cumplió con lo estipulado en cuanto a alimentación y alojamiento, tuve la oportunidad de conocer paisajes muy bonitos y terminé enamorada de la riqueza ecológica de los lugares aledaños y del jardín del Hostal rural-colonial. Recomiendo este voluntariado a las personas que quieren estar en un lugar lindo, con arquitectura tipo colonial, alejados de la ciudad y que quieran conexión con la naturaleza. Recomendo para pessoas que gostem de natureza.
