I had a great stay at the farm. Celina and her family were very welcoming, warm and accommodating. I loved spending time with them and playing games - it helped Massively with my Spanish speaking skills! food was fresh, and delicious. I tried plenty of new foods including fried cactus from the garden ! Tasks were simple, 9am–2pm, mainly garden maintenance and trimming olive trees, as it wasn't harvest season. I also helped Lucien and Valentin with their English. You get a bike, and the coast is about an hours bike away by a rather flat route, I went every day after working.

My stay with Celina, Bruno, Luthien, and Valentine (and Rock) was absolutely amazing! They made me feel welcome and like I was part of the family. The work day started earlier to avoid the mid day heat. Each day we had different task so it was never boring! I learned how to make jam from higo chumbo, harvest carob, prune olive trees and a few other things!
Celina is big on respect. You respect her, she respects you. Very simple
My only complaint is that my experience wasn’t longer!! Thank you so much, I hope to be back soon ❀️❀️

I really enjoyed my time with Celina and her family. Speaking Spanish, doing outdoor volunteering and spending time with the family and other volunteers travelling around the local area. There's a space for the volunteers and the work is fair and enjoyable. With most of it done in the morning - for the summer months, I didn't stay during the winter. The type of projects range from building mounds for their watering system to maintaining the trees, to even teaching English. Have some fun, do some work and treat them with respect and I'm sure you'll have a lovely time.

This was my second experience with Worldpackers and it was amazing!! Celina and the entire family were extremely kind and welcoming, and we shared many beautiful moments together.
I had my own casita to sleep in and bathroom + shower room, which are separate from the casita.
The tasks and the hours of work have differed some days, depending on what needed to get done or the heat. Overall the host was very considerate at all times.
I also learned a lot about self-sufficiency and organic farming, which I found super interesting (and tasty!). I would highly recommend this experience!!!

I learned a lot throughout my stay, both through the work and the conversations and experiences we shared. They played a huge role in making my time in Mutxamel fun, meaningful and enriching. I’ll always look back on this experience with gratitude and fond memories. I highly recommend this experience!
