Definitely this volunteer experience helps you connect with nature and the host is all about it. The space the host created with other volunteers is really friendly and his dogs are main characters, shout-out to Copérnico!

This was a great experience. There is work to do around the house as well as cleaning. It is very easy to visit the local city of Pasto by taking a bus. There is lots of trees, animals and nature around this area of the countryside of Colombia. There is also 3 dogs to keep you company while if the host leaves the house. There is good kitchen facilities available and groceries available only 15 minutes from the house. You will also be able to see a volcano shelter in the backyard. I recommend this host.

Adam es un buen voluntario, puedes dejar tu casa con tranquilidad, tienes que hablar inglés para comunicarte bien con el, sin embargo hace el esfuerzo para hablar buen español. Ayuda mucho con los animalitos de la casa y con la limpieza, así como el mantenimiento de jardines y algunas actividades en el Albergue.

Ha sido de las mejores experiencias en mis voluntariados. David estuvo siempre muy atento a lo que necesitara, muy amable, y siempre aprendí cosas con él. La casa es INCREÍBLE súper cómoda, linda, tranquila, no te faltara absolutamente nada y sus perritos pancho y cope son unos perritos preciosos y tranquilos. Lo más increíble es la conexión que haces con las personas de la vereda, hay infinitos saberes que podrás explorar para conectarte con el territorio, la comunidad y contigo misma. Respecto a las tareas todas con muy sencillas, poco tiempo y David es muy flexible! Súper recomendado.
