I had an amazing experience ! Alan and Dionny are very good hosts, always attentive to the volunteers. The work is really chill, and you get plenty of free time to connect with the other volunteers, or to go hiking or explore the area. I also got to spend my birthday there, and it was a lot of fun. I totally recommend it!

I had a great experience here! The work was very relaxed and varied — mainly irrigating corn, helping teach kids English, cleaning, and cooking. Alan and Dionny were both very kind and welcoming, and they had tons of great hiking recommendations for the surrounding areas, which I really appreciated. It's also a great place to meet other backpackers and hikers. Overall, I'd definitely recommend this experience:)

Such an incredible experience, I felt part of a family. The work was interesting and an adventure plus it was a lot less than I had expected. The shared meals were a great way to get together. And we were encouraged to go on the nearby hikes that Alan helped organise

I had a very good experience! The work is very chill, mostly weeding, harvesting and irrigating the corn. Dionny and Allan are very good hosts, they always make sure you are well fed (very good food) and are very kind souls. You have the opportunity to da lot of hikes on the surronding mountains and they are very chill about it. I actually hurt my knee there and they were very kind, letting me stay at the house helping with lunch instead of working at the fields so me knee could heal :) Thanks a lot! Highly recommend :)
