I volunteered at Karuna’s beautiful super adobe home in El Nachal, Mexico—just as she described. What an inspiration! This woman pours her soul into everything she does, literally living the off-grid dream we’ve all heard about but rarely seen.

Michael is the BEST volunteer I’ve had here! If I could give him 10 stars, I would!
