The Experience

Vivimos mi pareja, nuestro bebé y yo en una casa muy cerca del centro de Bilbao, con parada de autobús a pocos metros, lo que hace que llegar sea fácil y rápido. Ahora mismo estamos en plena reforma de la casa y exteriores, con el sueño de convertirla en un espacio autosostenible. Además, tenemos muchos árboles frutales!

I had a wonderful experience staying at Bilbao, Marta and Jorge were super welcoming and attentive my whole stay, y had to split my stay and they were super flexible. The other volunteers showed me around and we had a great time, my big brothers from Basque Country

Mi Experiencia ha sido increíble, los anfitriones son personas muy agradables y con una energía brutal, con muchas ganas de enseñarle a las personas acerca de su gran proyecto. Todo el tiempo aprendí demasiado y me sentí muy cómodo. Tengo muy claro que volveré. A Jorge, Marta y Carmencita. Muchas gracias por todo, fué una experiencia maravillosa que recomiendo a todos realizar 🌎- Un abrazo 🫂

Esta experiencia ha sido increíble!, conocer a Marta, Carmencita y Jorge y su proyecto familiar, en un lugar conectado con el bosque y el ecosistema te hace verdaderamente desconectar de la ciudad y el ruido, a conectar con lo esencial. Recomiendo 100% hacer voluntariados en este lugar e integrarse a una dinámica de trabajo físico importante, compartir con otras culturas, conocer formas de vida, poder dar ideas, sentirte parte de una familia en la estancia. Muy agradecida de este lugar :);)

Sin duda tuvimos una gran experiencia con Marta y Jorge! La finca es un gran lugar para relajarse, conectar con la naturaleza y la cercanía con Bilbao facilita conocer la ciudad y alrededores de manera ágil. Además, el proyecto en sí te permite aprender mucho sobre sostenibilidad, construcción y los cuidados que requieren un lugar así. Los horarios siempre fueron respetados y las actividades fueron acorde a lo platicado. Por último y más importante, el tiempo de convivencia fue muy agradable y ambos siempre estuvieron preocupados por nuestro bienestar y comodidad. Esperamos poder volver! :)
