Ever heard about a little village in Catalonia, not fare from Barcelona, called La Nou de Gaia? The village has 555 hearty, creative souls that take much care about their village life. The family I volunteered are 4 of these. They made my stay unforgettable. I had the chance to live in their cozy house by joining the workaway volunteering program. I spent a wonderful time of my life. The family and especially the little kids inspired me everyday and fed my mind with new ideas I am now working on back home in Zurich.

Staying with the family felt like staying at home of some good friends for me. I had the opportunity to cook and play with the kids and take care of their house and discover great nature close by. Here in La Nou de Gaia the idea came up to offer kids cooking classes. We had two classes and they were so much fun. Read more on the kids food events in the section events.

I can recommend to everybody to do a workaway program. It will leave you memorable moments of joy and prepare you for other things in life you will need one day. Love life!
