If you're looking for an adventure off grid far away from civilisation and the sometimes overwhelming backpacker life, staying at the farm is the best decision to make! I stayed for 2 weeks and could calm down during our daily morning meditation, work in nature and our beloved Papaya break <3 Micheal is a lovely host and definitely passionate about his project! He's open for healthy communication including receiving feedback and confrontation with things that might not go as you want. Thank you for this unforgettable stay! (Ps: be aware of getting dirty haha)

This is my first solo travel and first volunteering with Worldpackers. Michael is an awesome guy! From the moment I saw him to the day I left, he was always caring and a funny guy, that's for sure. I had a meaningful and grounding stay at this eco farm, surrounded by nature and sustainable living. A minor miscommunication arose, but it was quickly and kindly resolved. Though it was just Kathy and me, we made it a story worth telling. Planting seeds and knowing they'll grow into trees one day was a beautiful experience. I can't wait to see what grows from it all.

The farm is a beautiful farm in the mountains. A place to connect with nature, to relax, to disconnect from the city stress, to form consciousness, to spent time with the animals. I really enjoyed staying there and learning about planting and seeing how Michaels projects turn into reality . The farm has a huge fruits, vegetable and medicinal plants garden. If you're staying in the right time you can take advantage of harvesting what's planted. Michael is a really nice guy, very chill, conscious, has a lot of knowledge and passionate about his farm and projects.

Our experience with Michael was absolutely incredible. In the short time we had at the farm, we were able to learn a ton of things, about the day to day, and long term running of the farm, as well as share our own knowledge to help the future if the farm. I also feel I made life long friends in the time we spent there. I wish we had been there longer, and I can't wait to visit again!

I did my first volunteer placement on Michael's farm and it was an incredible experience. I've learnt a lot about gardening and growing medicinal plants. The work is intense and we're lucky enough to see the results quickly. The landscape is amazing, in the middle of the jungle, surrounded by greenery. Michael is available, always smiling and spiritually uplifted. What's more, the dogs and cats are adorable. I felt like at home, thank you Michael 🍀

It was a great and meaningfull experience. The farm is located in the middle of the mountains away from all the stress. It was a retreat where you get to learn a lot about nature and organic farming. You also get to reconnect and learn more about yourself. While I was staying at the farm I learned a lot about the costarican culture and the country itself by meeting locals, talking with the host Michael and by getting to know the costarican kitchen. Michael is a open minded person who makes you feel right away at home. He provides everything you need. I would definetly come back :)
