I had a great time at the farm! Everyone was really welcoming and the work was very manageable as well. It was very interesting to see how the farm works, and getting to help with all the tasks. Overall a really good experience that I would definitely recommend, gracias por todo!!

We spent two amazing weeks with Jorge y Marina !! They were so welcoming we felt like home the whole time ! The tasks were what we expected and we were really in their lives doing what they do everyday. I would recommend them 100% with no hesitation. One thing tho you need to speak at least a bit of spanish and be fit if you come in march as you will be doing a lot of wood work 😋

11/10. Marina is simply exceptional! I had a complete experience in Patagonia, far beyond the volunteering I imagined. She not only offers a exchange, shares her story, teaches about Magallanic culture, makes sure to share her knowledge and welcomed me in such a genuine way that I felt part of her family. It is rare to find someone so generous, who strives to share so much and allows us to know a place beyond the tourist gaze. The Estancia? It looks like a movie set! I signed up for two weeks and ended up staying three. I miss it already 🤍

A unique experience, the best host I’ve had on all my travels; it was a learning and enjoyable experience that passed very quickly :(
If you go, say hello to Paca and to the lovely, precious one, Sita Mari; she also cooks very well and has a lot of local knowledge, which makes me so happy.
