J'ai passé 4 magnifiques semaines à the project. Un endroit parfait pour se reconnecter à la nature : le bruit de la rivière, le chant des animaux, les repas sains partagés... J'ai admiré la détermination de Marco à faire grandir ce beau projet. Le travail le matin dans le jardin était varié, puis les après-midis étaient consacrés à la découverte de cascades, plages, balades à vélo et même à cheval... Merci Marco pour ta gentillesse, ta patience et tout ce que tu m'as appris. Je repars avec de merveilleux souvenirs. Je te souhaite le meilleur pour la suite. À bientôt, j'espère ! Amélie

Le projet est un lieu magique ! Je fais un voyage seule et je recommande fortement. Je me suis sentie bien, apaisée et près de la nature. Marco a le cœur sur la main et beaucoup d'énergie pour son projet. C'est un bonheur d'y participer. J'ai fait la rencontre d'une autre volontaire, Mélanie, qui m'a beaucoup apporté en savoir. Mercii pour cette somptueuse expérience à vos côtés.

Tras los primeros años del proyecto, con la energía de Marco y el equipo que se está creando allí es evidente que el sueño de muchos, como establecer una comunidad autosostenible, en este caso puede hacerse realidad. Marco es un gran líder, con muchas habilidades en el campo y la construcción, se comunica con respeto y claridad y siempre está disponible para ayudarte en cualquier tema o compartir experiencias e ideas profundas. De los mejores voluntariados que he hecho hasta ahora, sin duda voy a volver para vivir de nuevo la experiencia con el excelente equipo y ver el crecimiento del proyect

Fue una experiencia hermosa!! El lugar es increíble, escuchas el río todo el día y lo tienes a un lado para meterte cuando quieras. Además, todos son súper amables y te reciben muy bien siempre. Se siente una energía como si fueran una familia. Comes muy rico y sano y si te gustaría desconectarte de la cotidianidad y conectarte con la naturaleza definitivamente este es un lugar ideal. Marco es una gran persona y siempre cuida de todos. El proyecto es muy bonito y seguro cada día irá creciendo y mejorando!
