Fanny is a lovely host! The work is enjoyable and flexible and the daily cake is a massive bonus. The volunteer house is a lovely space right by the beach. Thank you!

I enjoyed my time here. The work was straightforward and easy, although working outside can be taxing at times with the high humidity and heat, however Fanny always gave us a breakfast break with cake, fruit and juice. The volunteer house was roomy and has everything we needed and close to town and the beach. It is a small community with limited options, so if you are looking for a "nightlife" it might not be for you. The locals were all very friendly and the beach is great!

I don't think hiring just 1 volunteer is a good option. The town is beautiful, safe and quiet but kinda boring if you are looking for meeting new people, it's way too silent and calm, the restaurants opens at 4pm and close at 10pm. I think the host should informed you before arriving all these things, I'm wasn't looking for an spiritual journey, I wanted to connect with more people, share experiences and make new friends but sadly it wasn't provided. I have to thank Fanny for the trust and giving me a full house. I was good, but just that.

I don't think I deserve this rating. The house was exactly as I described, the work as well, and the town was small and quiet too; you never asked if there were other volunteers and I also can't promise that there will be, it depends on everyone's arrivals and stays. Sometimes there are 6, sometimes only one. It doesn't depend on my choice, so I don't understand why this rating. You were well received, this is my job, my commitment to each of you. When you said you wanted to leave earlier, I agreed.

The inn is a very nice Pousada. Fanny is trying really hard to make it comfortable for everyone, both the guests and the volunteers. There's not a lot of contact with the guests, but with the other volunteers you can make great connections! Postal is an amazing place to stay, the beaches are stunning, and the small city is very charming. Easy to feel home. Also the house for the volunteers (Vila Bohemia) is a super nice place to stay! The work is fair, and divers. Fanny leaves space to negotiate about the jobs and the circumstances, which is very nice!
