I've never thought that I would be reiceved by such a warm enviroment and learn so much in such little time. João, Raquel,Joana and the family treats everyone like one of them, They're always respectful and attentious for your needs. The experience is unique, people I met there are so interesting in their own ways, and thats what amaze me the most. It was the most remarkable experience of my life and for sure lifechaging! Just wanna say thanks for this gift! Will come back any day to Golegã and have great times :)

Por mas de ser meu primeiro voluntáriado, e tambem estarmos no inverno em Portugal, eu me senti super acolhido e produtivo, João e Raquel são pessoas incríveis que me fizeram sentir muito acolhido, as tarefas são sempre explicadas com antecedência de forma harmônica, foi um ótimo início de voluntáriado para mim :)

De verás, a melhor experiência que já tive em Portugal, fui muito bem recebido e tive ótima acomodações, poder conviver e viver o dia dia de uma família amorosa e batalhadora no Alentejo foi de muito aprendizado para mim, fazer as tarefas com os animais, aves, plantas e entender o espaço muito bem organizado, planejado e cuidado por essa família maravilhosa, foi de grande valia poder ajudar no trabalho com as obras me fez muito bem também. Obrigado Família Delgado e Borbinhas. Muito Obrigado.

Uma das melhores experiências que já tive em minha vida. Me senti parte da família por todo o tempo como voluntário no sítio. Com certeza irei levar todos em meu coração pro resto da vida. Aprendi bastante com eles, tanto com trabalhos manuais quanto com crescimento pessoal. Com certeza irei voltar 🫶🏻
