The Experience

El proyecto nació de la idea de aprovechar un terreno familiar y con la meta de vivir de una manera más sostenible, sencilla y resiliente. A la fecha (2023) llevamos 3 años experimentando y aprendiendo en distintas direcciones. Este año arrancamos con la renta de 3 espacios diferentes por lo que actualmente gran parte de la labor está enfocada en quehaceres domésticos y/o el trato con los huéspedes.

I gotta say I had a really great experience at Brotes & Ceniaz. The host Alejandro was allways super nice to us and had an open ear regarding any concernes. The working hours were very short and the tasks we got, were mostly really interesting. The surrounding villages are super relaxed and perfect for hikes or other outdoor aktivities. On our days off Alejandro took us to meet his friends and climb at the local crags. He also let us experience the local food culture and had alot of knowledge on many topics regarding the local culture, sustainable living or permaculture.:)

Brotes y Cenizas es un hogar cálido para reconectar con la naturaleza y contigo mismo, la tranquilidad en este espacio es especial además de la bonita vibra, la casa es muy linda y cómoda. Ale es un ser increíble apasionado por su proyecto, le gusta compartir lo que ha aprendido, con muy buena disposición para resolver dudas y enseñar, respeta los horarios establecidos y las tareas correspondientes. Fue una maravillosa estadía, me llevó en mi corazón bellas y emocionantes experiencias, mucho conocimiento y un sabio amigo. ¡Gracias por la oportunidad!

Me sentí genial durante toda mi estancia en el voluntariado BrotesyCenizas, Los días/horas de trabajo y actividades fueron siempre respetadas y se disfruto el realizar/participar en las actividades encomendadas. Además, pude aprender sobre la flora, el cultivo de hongos, compostaje, restauración de suelo e incluso participar en escalada (ruta). Asimismo, el uso de los baños secos fue muy agradable (se extrañará). Muchas gracias por todo Ale, llevo de este voluntariado buen conocimiento, práctica/experiencia, anécdotas e interacciones maravillosas.
