The Experience

Vivimos en una casa de pueblo heredada en el centro de Benferri, con jardín, árboles frutales y un gato joven. Buscamos voluntarias/os para ayudar en tareas diarias: renovar muebles, trabajar en el jardín, cocinar, limpiar, ordenar, decorar o pintar. Según tus habilidades podrás aportar más, y si no, te enseñamos todo. Compartimos una vida rural, sencilla y sostenible, basada en colaboración y aprendizaje mutuo.

Benferri is a very calm place and perfect for those looking for tranquility. Román is an excellent host, he made me feel at home and welcome, even though I don't speak Spanish. The activities are not difficult and are explained easily. I really enjoyed the work and the experience in a nursing home made me see life in a different way. Muchas gracias por todo :)

Mi estancia ha sido muy agradable. La casa está muy bien y tiene un jardín un poco en proceso, pero del que se disfruta estar a la buena sombra de los árboles. El trabajo consistió en labores domesticas, alguna tarea sencilla en el taller de podología y algo de jardín, siempre solicitado con mucha educación y agradecimiento por parte de los anfitriones. Respecto al pueblo, si no tienes vehículo, no hay mucho que hacer (si le das a la bici allí te prestan una). No puedo dejar de decir que lo mejor de mi estancia fue el gato Nectarino! Gracias Jana y Román

Que bonito es explorar la cultura de otros lugares y conocer nuevas personas, sobre todo por haber conocido a roman y a jana, ambos muy amables, cercanas y respetuosas, me hicieron sentir bien durante mi estancia, el trabajo tuvo momentos tranquilos y otros un poco mas exigentes, Pero en general fue una experiencia de aprendizaje y es lo que mas me gusto, me voy agradecida por la oportunidad y todo lo aprendido ; sobre todo por conocer a roman y a jana, excelentes personas❤️

Mi experiencia fue maravillosa, pasé unas semanas muy cómoda y tranquila en Benferri, Román y Jana son excelentes anfitriones, te hacen parte de su familia y se preocupan por hacerte sentir cómodo en casa, además te facilitan todo para explorar los lugares cercanos y te incluyen en sus planes cotidianos. Nectarino🐈es hermoso y cariñoso Cómo voluntariado es perfecto si quieres autonomía y flexibilidad de horas, se aprenden cosas nuevas y si quieres una temporada en un lugar muy tranquilo y relajante, Benferri es perfecto. Gracias Román y Jana, mis nuevos amigos ❤️
