The Finca the Center is really crazy beautiful! Real connection with the nature and with a different style of living. I feel really gratefull for the experience and for everything I learned here. Shon is very flexible and comunicative about the job and time needed for the Finca. The experience can be really different based on the time of the year and the current job that the host needs, from times with very few people to times with lot of people.

The place was amazing, a paradise, the "duties" where basically nothing more relax then working. I think the only thing that I will improve is the presence of the owner to work more and do more stuff, but I can understand also his point and he have a lot to do outside the finca. But I appreciate the trust to leave in his property strangers to take care of the place. Overall a really good experience that I recommend to everyone that want to connect with the nature and have some solo time.

They offer two types of volunteering: short-term and long-term. If you choose the short-term option (under 3 months), there is a daily fee of 5 euros for food and another 5 euros to support the project. During the summer, the place is practically empty. Shon is a great guy, but he is usually busy with other tasks and isn't around much. So, if you're looking for solitude in nature, this is the perfect spot. However, I was told there are more people around in the winter, which might make for a better overallexperience.

I felt at home from the very first day. This has been an absolutely transformative experience. The place itself is breathtaking, but it's the wonderful people I met who truly made it unforgettable. Cooking together, fetching water from the top of the mountain, building with earth, dancing under the stars… I have the feeling that whatever I write will fall short of describing these days. Thank you, from the heart.

I joined the Finca at a very special time of celebration. Words can hardly describe the love I experienced and shared with the Tribe. This place attracts amazing people, nourishes openness, and inspires all forms of creativity. The energy of the indigenous people and the untouched nature is truly unique.

Thank you, Shon, for this life-changing opportunity, the most beautiful experiences and ceremonies, and the chance to literally immerse myself and reconnect with the Earth.

An unforgettable experience. The place is wonderful, an oasis on a volcanic island. Waking up among the mountains and seeing the full moon is incredible. Search for spring water from the mountains and harvesting organic fruits and vegetables were just some of the daily activities. I thank Shon for allowing me to be part of the Center community. I also value the human quality of the people I met, always respectful and collaborative for the environment and the local ecosystem. Here's to more communities like this where human values, healthy living, and ecology are the mission. Gracias gracias 🙏✨

In Finca Adama we found fantastic people in a magical place. It’s definitely an intense but relaxing experience. In three weeks we connected with nature and the place’s spontaneity, discovering a new culture and eating very delicious food and fruit from the finca’s trees!

In one month at the Adama farm I learned more than in a few years! Taking care of this beautiful farm and building it little by little with the support and the teachings of Shon and of his neighbors is an incredibly powerful experience. This place also creates a very strong sense of community, and I began to feel like family with the other volunteers. How hard it is to say goodbye <3

I think it is an experience that anyone who enjoys being in touch with nature should experience. It is a precious project both to learn how life in the countryside works and also to cultivate oneself. Without a doubt, I wish a long life to this wonderful project.

Many thanks, Shon, and many blessings on this path you are walking with your loved ones.
