The Experience

Currently we need volunteers with experience in small-scale renovation, carpentry and masonry to help with the conditioning of the finca and its facilities: renovating sheds, refurbishing floors, repairing roofs, fixing doors, demolishing small structures and creating new ones... Arraigo was created so that people reconnect with nature and their own center, but first we need to make it nice and ready.

Spain

Iván was a 10/10 host. Our experience was spectacular, working in the mornings and then in the afternoons we did some sightseeing. The estate is well located, about 15 minutes from the capital.

We loved it and we wouldn't rule out returning.
