The Experience

The main task of the day is to walk our Golden Retriever Maximus in the mornings and the evenings. Other than that, there is a bit of maintenance to be done, like watering the plants in the garden and cleaning common areas, indoors and outdoors. It is an ideal place for 2 volunteers coming together. For family reasons that have to do with my aging father in Austria, I will be away from March 22nd to April 2nd.

Isabella is a very kind host who runs an excellent yoga and retreat business. I am so happy that I had the opportunity to help her with her website, social media and Canva graphics. I also appreciate her healthy vegetarian meals, beautiful villa, and advice on what to do in my spare time. We worked very hard together and I had some time to explore the beach, city and nearby Nature Reserve. Her other guests, tenants and business partners were all very respectful and it was amazing to have my own private studio during this time as well. Thanks Isabella!

Maravillosa experiencia, la casa no hizo sentir como en casa, es cálida, respetuosa y siempre atenta en todo. El lugar es increíble, hermoso y tiene toda la buena energía de la anfitriona. No podemos olvidarnos de Maximus, su perro que sin duda fue un compañero más. Ayudar a la casa en las tareas fue siempre placentero, pudimos manejar los horarios y ella siempre confió en nuestra buena predisposición. De esta forma pudimos disfrutar de Altafulla, que es un maravilloso pueblo, con muchas atracciones y playas. Nos llevamos una amiga y una experiencia que estará para siempre en nuestro corazón

La mejor experiencia con una gran anfitriona en un espacio maravilloso. Se respetaron las horas y las tareas, todo se deja claro desde un principio. La casa es hermosa y esta muy cerca de la playa. Además está Maximus que es un perro alucinante.

La verdad que superó mis expectativas. Desde la casa, las instalaciones, la anfitriona, su calidez y amabilidad, la comida, las tareas y la flexibilidad de horarios en las rutinas fue todo muy armonioso. El lugar está a pocas cuadras de la playa, el pueblo es tranquilo si no es temporada. hay contacto con la naturaleza, arquitecturas preciosas, castillos y está a 10 minutos de Tarragona en un tren. espero les encante tanto como a mí!
