Our time in the project was unforgettable! From the first day, we felt at home in this magical place among the mountains. Bruno is an amazing host: welcoming, supportive, flexible, and open to new ideas. We learned to work with clay, made empanadas from scratch, explored local traditions, and enjoyed treks around Pirquitas. He also guided us through the city’s museums and theater. Ninfa and Kiriku, his dogs, and Shifu , his cat, were a joyful part of the experience. We highly recommend the project for anyone looking for culture, nature, and a place that feels like family.

I had a great time here and wish I'd stayed longer. Bruno is a lovely host and really friendly guy! He was happy to go for a trek together to show me the nature nearby his property and also showed me around Catamarca city to see the museums and even some of his sculptures on display. The tasks was fairly easy; I mostly worked on a mosaic project on the outdoor wood oven and helping to organise the art supplies. Hours are super flexible and really felt like an exchange of help rather than 'work'. The property is nice and tranquil, with a rustic charm I really liked. Would definitely recommend!

Volunteering at Bruno was a great experience ! Being in the middle of the nature really helps to reflect and Bruno is such a great host, always happy to help you and to make you discover the region. I would definitely recommend staying in the host!

I loved my time in the host, and would highly recommend spending time there to anyone that is interested in connecting with nature, art, the Argentinian people, culture, and themselves. Bruno is not only a fantastic host, but an amazing person overall. He cares for the space, and the people in and around it. The place itself had everything I needed and was a mix of comfort and authenticity. No matter who you are, the host is the perfect place to practice, create, and enjoy the simpler things. the host, Bruno (and his 2 dogs), and Catamarca will always hold a special place in my heart.

My experience was amazing and will be kept with great affection in my heart! Bruno is a fun, kind and simple person; he made me feel at home. He took me to see wonderful places that I never imagined visiting and provided me with unique moments, in addition to a very rich cultural exchange. I tasted local foods, learned about the region's culture, and greatly improved my Spanish. The place is wonderful, the room super comfortable and the tasks were calm, always respecting my pace. Bruno had a lot of patience to teach. It was priceless, I would definitely come back!!

Bruno is a really nice guy, calm and easy to communicate with. The place is beautiful, the accommodation is super comfortable, and the activities and schedules are super relaxed. The animals are also very friendly. My experience on the project was great, I learned to handle new tools, I had good exchanges with the host Bruno and also with some of his friends. I also had the opportunity to go on some excursions, and the location of the studio is in a super beautiful village!!

Like a few months ago, my time at proyeto was very good. Bruno is always predisposed to dialogue based on the tasks and the strengths that each person has to be able to move forward in their space. I spent a month there and we did everything, but at a super relaxed pace. By the end of that time we noticed everything that had been progressed without the pressure of it being that way. No doubt I would return. the proyeto is a great place that reflects Bruno's creative mind. Thanks for so much!

An incredible and beautiful experience. Bruno is a fantastic guy who made us feel at ease right away. Thanks to him we learned a lot about some aspects of art and nature. The best volunteering I have ever done so far. Not to forget the two dogs Ninfa and Kiriku and the cat Shifu, they are wonderful; I miss them already. If you are in Catamarca or the surrounding area, I absolutely recommend doing this experience with Bruno.

What can I say, how about starting with the owner's commitment to come with me from Tucumán to Catamarca by bus and still pay the buses from Catamarca to his residence in Fray Equiu, prepare pizza twice, invite to watch theater, two parties, the schedule is completely flexible, I stayed for a week alone in the most comfortable room I've ever had, more than once he cooked lunch and dinner, etc, he helped me make a ton of sculptures and furniture with recycled wood, some turned out okay-ish but I dismantled and reused the same wood and screws, a chair I made broke on me 😅
