Damien & Lyse had been very accommodating to the volunteers. Damien works with Moona in keeping track of all the farming activities. We have a meeting every Monday for briefing of tasks and to assess what has gone wrong in the past week and what are the things that can be improved or continued in the present week. The volunteers' accommodation has given me my personal, calm, peaceful place where I can do my reports and read materials on sustainable agriculture. Damien had been very generous in terms of sharing with volunteers reference materials on permaculture. I'm truly thankful to everyone.

Lyse and Damien, are loving and open to feedback, and eager to keep growing. As their first WorldPacker volunteer, the stay had ups and downs, especially with accommodation, but definetely has a lot of potential. While not close to the center of the project, a motorbike makes everything accessible to know this amazing town. Staying for over a month is recommended for a deeper understanding of permaculture. Damien's knowledge is impressive, and the project keeps growing by leaps and bound. They are both very nice and receptive, and I'm confident they'll keep improving the volunteer experience.

Damien y Lyse son muy amables y ayudan en lo que pueden, están abiertos a hablar y escuchar quejas, sugerencias, etc Pero aún así, para mi la experiencia no estuvo acorde con la descripción del proyecto en la plataforma. No obtuve ningún curso de permacultura, aprendí un poco los días en que ellos estuvieron trabajando conmigo, que fueron pocos. Los otros días simplemente trabajé. En cuánto al hospedaje, para mi la casa no cumplía con mis exigencias mínimas de limpieza, orden y comodidad, así que me mudé. En general creo que falta un poco más de organización para los voluntarios.
