Very good second experience with Emiliano there are various types of works and he is open to exchange experiences. The region is very beautiful and it's a good place to disconnect from modern life and connect to nature

I has been very warmly welcomed by Emiliano and his little family, I had a cosy shed all to myself tucked away in the garden with everything I needed. They are plenty of ways to help out on is land depending of your skills. From wood construction and gardening to cooking, every good idea are welcome here.
In my case, I helped him for more physical tasks on another piece of land he owns nearby and I learned a lot about agroflorestery and permaculture.
Unfortunately I was the only volunteer at the time, but I still got to meet some lively and friendly people from the nearby villages.

It was absolutely brilliant experience! I've tried for the first time in my life a lot of native fruits and vegetables, learn how to grow and cultivate them. The host, Emiliano, was very welcoming and friendly, always ready to help. Nature is stunning, mountains are breathtaking! I would recmmend for sure👍

The place is amazing, completely surrounded by the nature and far away from the chaos and the confusion of the cities, perfect for those is looking for an authentic and wild experience in the nature. We've learn lots of things about plants and permaculture and Emilano and Duda have been really welcoming and kind to us!

I really enjoyed being here! The place (with great mountain view!) is nice and full of trees. Beautiful waterfalls are close (30 min hike). In the property itself we did a lot cleaning/housekeeping. However, I liked more working outside. We worked 5-6 hours between breakfast and lunch, which could be quite tough sometimes. In general, the facilities are quite simple, you have to get used to. Duda was very kind to us❤️and taught us about the magic of making bread, joghurt and good food. Emiliano told stories, played guitar and frisbee with us & showed us the most interesting plants.Thank you!!

The lodge is a beautiful place with lots of plants in their garden. There are many waterfalls only half an hour away, but other than that, there is not much to do in the freetime. When it was raining, me and my friend couldn't really leave our room. Emiliano and his family are very nice people and tried their best to keep us happy. The work was easy but not very exiting and sometimes the five hours of work felt longer than they were. The food was simple, but very good. Our room was smaller then expected and the bathroom situation was new to me, but other than that it was nice there.

Thank you very much for your help and support. We will be happy to host you girls one other next time.. now are we steel in the raining season, so it's raining frequently... In our living room we have instruments like guitar, drums, etc, that can the volunteers use to play with in the free time, or get a book to read like you did.. about the room size I didn't know it was smaller than what you expected. Actually we had other 2 rooms free, and you cut chose any other room, bigger, or individual.

I was completely enchanted by this place! The property is a beautiful and well-kept agroforestry farm, in a more secluded location, for those who want to disconnect and enjoy the mountains.
The Emiliano and Duda make you feel at home; they are incredibly kind and attentive. The tasks aren't very complex; they're calm and easy to do. I stayed mostly in the kitchen, but one day I went to plant corn! 🌽
The little cabins are super comfortable and the place is quiet, remote, and surrounded by beautiful landscapes of the mountain ranges and many waterfalls all around.
I extended my stay a little longer! 🤗

My first experience as a volunteer couldn't have been any different; it was incredible! I felt welcomed and at home from the very first day. I wholeheartedly thank you for welcoming me so well, and Charlotte was also very warmly welcomed. The work with the land was surreal. I learned a lot; I realized that I enjoy getting my hands dirty. I connected with nature and with myself. I thank you, Emiliano, for making me feel so at ease.
The view is breathtaking.
The family is beautiful and the project, inspiring.
I will take friends for life.
May the flame stay lit.
I hope to return for the harvest, see you soon! 🌀
