I was volunteering at the Farm for 5-6 weeks from mid April onwards and had a great time with a great team. Running the reception was super easy and relaxed. The place itself lies on top of a hill, 3.5 km from the village with an amazing view. Thanks for all the support, guys. Hope you're doing well.
