As our first worldpacker host we didn't know what to expect, neither my friend or I had any idea what it would be like. I can confidently say Andres was the best first host we could have asked for. He entrusted us with more challenging tasks (shearing sheep), and met us with lots of patience, making accomplishment much more rewarding. And when we weren't working he made sure to let us see the local agricultural culture, as well as make delicious food. The animals were also the most welcoming, especially la mora. Overall it was an amazing experience helping out on this sustainable farm.

It is a great thing that Andres is a father, because if he wasn't he would have to be a teacher or something similar - working with Andres he went to great lengths to explain holistically everything we dealt with. Probably the best first host we could have hoped for, great cook, productive and rewarding work, local engagement, Andres is a lovely, kind and curious man and we loved our stay.

Andres and his family gave us the chance to see how they grow the farm in a sustainable way. We really enjoyed our stay here because the family was super welcoming and nice. They introduced us to Chilean cuisine and culture everyday with teaching us how to make several traditional dishes and told us many stories about the country. The work on the blueberry fields was never hard but fun and enjoyable. We've learnt a lot about hummus, planting and the life on the farm during the volunteering. I'd always highly recommend this place to anyone who like working in nature with lovely people:)

Andrés es el anfitrion más espectacular que conocimos. Es calido, inteligente y muy generoso. Las actividades son super variadas y aprendes muchísimo de él, enseña con paciencia y calidad. Se respetan los horarios de trabajo y dias libres. Sin dudas lo mejor fueron las delicias que nos preparó y las charlas de sobremesa. Siempre está con una sonrisa y es muy calmado. Muchisimas gracias de corazon y ojalá nos encontremos con mas personas como vos !

Nosotros, Camila y João, tuvimos una muy linda experiencia con Andres y Carolina, su esposa. Ambos fueron anfitriones muy amables y acogedores, nos hicieron sentir cómodos desde el primer día. El trabajo fue principalmente poda de arándanos Legacy para el invierno, y Andres siempre explicó todo con mucha paciencia y dedicación. Se nota que le gusta enseñar y compartir lo que sabe, tanto sobre el cultivo como sobre Chile y la zona. Además, nos llevó a conocer Salto del Laja, una experiencia muy bonita. La casa es cómoda, el ambiente tranquilo y también conocimos a su hijo, muy amable. ❤️
