Muy grata la experiencia con Javier y Cecilia, los horarios se respetaron, las tareas fueron claras y agradezco mucho su flexibilidad en el calendario para yo cumplir unos objetivos deportivos. Conocer sobre el proyecto fue genial, mucha historia, mucha naturaleza, muchas experiencias. Las charlas con Javier fueron muy gratas, una persona muy interesante, con mucho conocimiento y con mucho recorrido en diferentes áreas. Agradecimiento especial a Baudilio, siempre amable y me explicó con detalle cada labor, compartimos mucho culturalmente también. Mil gracias nuevamente por la hospitalidad!

La finca es hermosa, tiene unas vistas muy lindas a la naturaleza, las instalaciones como la casa que entregan es bastante cómoda y linda. El pueblo es bastante pequeño y acogedor, me encantó. Sobre el equipo de trabajo todos son muy amables y excelentes personas. Abiertos a enseñar e indicar las tareas con tiempo y paciencia y lo más importante para mí, conversan sobre la forma de vida y cultura local. Mi experiencia fue genial
