What is your previous experience with Organic Agriculture and Sustainable Development?
Me and my husband are changing our lives from the standard way to a new sustainable way in the last two years, and we know we still have much to learn about this.
What are your reasons for joining WWOOF Mexico?
Learning about sustainable living and agriculture, Getting to know Mexico better, Other
What do you want the farms and fellow WWOOFers to know about you?
We are highly motivated to live a new experience and, why not?, we're going to move to Mexico very soon.

Thank you for your interest in our farm and for sharing your dreams of new life in Mexico.
We also live with animals and have a project for treating the dogs and cats of our village free of charge.
To be honest, it will be difficult to bring your animals into Mexico via avion. You must study this very closely. I know of some people who had their animals taken and quarantined which they had to pay for and also bribe to get them returned. I know how much you love your animals to want to bring them but for their sakes be aware of every requirement so that they are not taken from you. This country is not sensitive to animals. It is the reason that we have a project to educate our area to better treatment of pets.
Another consideration, the climate is very extreme especially now during the rainy season. It is maybe the hottest you have experienced. This is an adjustment for humans and animals.
I am not wanting to discourage you but to tell you the truth of the way things are so you will have your eyes open.
I am writing from a point of view of living in a rural area, 2 hours from a city. Life is beautiful and full but also challenging. You are coming a long way, maybe giving up everything of life in Italy, I don't know. It might be better for someone to care for your pets and come check out Mexico for a few months first.
Best to you. Keep nurturing your dreams and they will grow to be reality. We are living our dream now...
