In general, my feedback would be similar to the other feedbacks: great place, great food, lovely animals, meeting Maryann and Ugo, engaging with locals, the work and so on.
But for me personally, the almost 6 weeks spend here were one of the best. Specially, coincidence or not, because here I managed to have great insights that lead me towards… read more

Having Gabriel for 6 weeks (he came for 4 but we really connected) was a pleasure, a gift and a lot of fun, as well as super exciting to have a weekly video of his experience in here, from his and the other volunteers' experience. He is really gifted in making videos, working with all types of tools, super responsible, super hard working, creative… read more
