The Experience

Tenemos un huerto familiar, cultivado biológicamente, por supuesto. Hacemos nuestro propio pan, conservas... y podemos enseñar a hacerlo. Estamos a 15 km de bellas playas de la Costa Brava, en verano vamos con los voluntarios con frecuencia. Ofrecemos alojamiento y comida a cambio de 4-5 h al día 5 días a la semana, ayudando en el huerto, mantenimiento de instalaciones y ayuda en casa. Hay wifi y biblioteca de temas alternativos para consulta.

Silvia and Jesus are great. They are quite different and authentic people, they make you feel at home. As for the place, if you expect to find a tidy and clean space, it will be a bit difficult for you and I would say that this place is not for you. Regarding volunteering, the tasks are very varied, from helping in the garden, building, carrying construction materials, to helping with housework. Finally, keep in mind that it is cold in the house since the heating is handmade.

A great way to experience self sufficiency first hand. The people here are hospitable and warm, and will include you in the local community and make sure you are not bored. It is however located quite remotely and it is difficult to go on solo adventures. I also recommend understanding and speaking more than basic Spanish as it is the language they will comunícate to you in.

Silvia y Jesús me hicieron sentir muy cómoda, como en casa. Las tareas eran ayudar en los quehaceres de la casa, por ejemplo salsa de tomate, recolectar olivas, sembrar guisantes, plantar cebollas, entre otras. La comida que prepara Silvia y el pan que prepara Jesús son EXQUISITOS y además todo con ingredientes locales. Ambos tienen una muy linda manera de ver la vida, viven en abundancia 🧡. Jesús disfruta como nadie la playa, así que cada vez que podíamos nos íbamos a dar un chapuzón y disfrutar del la granja. Fue mi primer voluntariado y lo recomiendo muchísimo. Saludos Silvia y Jesús

La verdad estoy super agradecido con Silvia y con Jesús, son unas personas muy lindas y siempre tratan de hacerte sonreir, me gusto mucho todo lo que aprendi y las nuevas habilidades que adquiri en esta experiencia, la casa es muy agradable y pasamos mucho tiempo juntos, la gente es siempre super amable y tambien estan al pendiente de ti, la comida es saludable y DELICIOSA, tiene un buen toque y la mayoria de las cosas son echas y cosechadas por ellos. Para ser mi primera experiencia me gusto mucho para aprender y conocer un poco de como ser un buen voluntariado :).
