My stay with Nando and Karen was so great, it's hard to describe the vibe there because it is so special.
They build the whole place themselves and did an amazing work at it, they are both very ambitious and have this energy of "let's do it" that I love. I was there for the women's retreat and learned pole dancing, archery, had a beautiful… read more

Margot stayed with us for a few weeks, though we wish it could have been longer. From the very beginning, she showed incredible commitment and proactivity. Not only did she keep her space clean and help us organize, but she also actively and empathetically participated in our women’s retreat. Afterwards, she kindly offered to support us with other… read more

Magdalena stayed with us longer than initially planned, and we couldn’t be happier about it! She is not only an exceptional rider, with incredible skills and confidence on horseback, but also a deeply kind, creative, and generous person. Her presence added so much warmth and joy to our space.

She quickly felt like part of our family, sharing… read more

I had the best time with Karen and Nando!! They picked me up from the bus station in montañita the first day and helped me get settled (buying a SIM card, getting groceries). After that they showed me a really nice (and super local) lunch place, which I visited a couple of times during my stay, due to the super affordable and delicious lunch… read more special (almuerzo).

They don’t live directly in the city so I advice you to stock up on basic groceries that first day, so you can get settled without worrying about that. Regardless, it is pretty easy to get from their place to montañita. I always took a taxi ($3) from a company Karen recommended, since that way it is safe for sure and you pay the prices locals pay and not an increased tourist one.

During my days there I had the opportunity to help with one of Karen’s women retreats. We did horse riding, archery, painting and more. The women were all extremely nice and we all got along well super quickly. Most of them mainly spoke Spanish, so it was a great way for me to practice and even though, due to the language barrier, we didn’t always totally understand each other, they took their time to try to include and have a conversation with me. All to say that I highly recommend staying there and helping with one of the retreats, since it was a super unique experience that I wouldn’t have had otherwise!

Generally, they didn’t ask me to help them with a lot of things, but when they did, it were pretty simple tasks, such as weeding the garden (with Karen and Nando), putting up decorations (with Karen) or making beds. My working time was mostly on my own schedule. Karen also asked me to have a little interactive talk during the retreat, which in the beginning intimidated me a bit, but she helped me through all parts of the preparation and in retrospective I am really happy I did it, since I was able to learn a lot from this and also felt super proud of myself afterwards. During my time in montañita I ate/drank something wrong (I think juice de tomate de árbol), which resulted in me having pretty bad stomach pain and not only did they help me find the right medication, but also always prioritized my health, telling me only to work if I feel well enough.

I am staying in Ecuador for one month and planned to stay with Karen and Nando for about a week, but I liked it so much that I extended my stay to almost two. Karen also helped me plan the rest of my trip, recommending places to go to and things to do.
They honestly just want you to have the best time in Ecuador and are super helpful if you have any questions. By the end of my stay I felt like part of the family. So if you are looking for a place with welcoming, outdoorsy, hardworking, but relaxed people, that love their animals, this is the right place:)

I was only planning on staying for a week but I loved it here so much, I ended up staying around 3! The hosts both taught me/introduced me to: archery, bo staff, whip/lasso, pole… read more

Karen and Nando are really nice people and the home is really beautiful. However, they weren’t very commutative and it wasn’t made clear what I was meant to be doing there. It would have been useful if they mentioned beforehand that I would need to organise buying food and drinking water prior to arriving as they aren’t located near many options… read more

Staying with Karen and Nando was such a positive experience, and everything we could have hoped for in our first Workaway. We loved the opportunity to work with their horses, getting a chance to learn about the work that goes into to keeping them fed and in a clean stable. We also loved learning about the project in the community even though there… read more

This was my first workaway and tbh I was very disappointed.
If you are just looking for a nice place to stay and have you own means of transportation I would say go for it. As that's really all it is.
All I was asked to do is organize one small tool area, feed the horses and clean the pens- which took 10 min in the morning and the last couple… read more
