Valeria was such a lovely person to have with us. She helped around the house and took great care of our daughter, always patient and kind with her. Valeria was polite, friendly, a little bit on the introverted side, but very reliable. She was always punctual and followed instructions really well, which made everything smooth and easy for us. What stood out the most was her calm and positive presence. She blended into our routine naturally and made daily life feel lighter with the way she quietly supported us. My family is really going to miss her, and we’re very thankful for the time she spent with us. I would happily recommend Valeria to any family or project looking for someone dependable, respectful, and kind-hearted. We wish her all the best and safe travels wherever her journey takes her.

Runa has been an excellent volunteer. She spent a week helping my parents at the farm with different activities and always with a good actitude and mood. She got used to the life style and culture easily and alwsys with a good energy despite the language barrier. I totally reccomend to accept Runa as volunteer, 100%!! Thanks Runa for your help and good luck in your adventure in Southamerica.

I had a very peaceful and wonderful stay at Cyrus and Andreas beautiful farmhouse. Together with Birch and the other volunteers it was always a great vibe in the house with a good mix of quiet time enjoying the incredible rooms and interiors as well as social times biking around the picturesque countryside, exploring nearby towns, and lunches together. I enjoyed many wonderful chats with Cyrus learning about the house, architecture, furniture design and all the thought and intention put into the details- it was very inspiring. The work was a great mix, I did some cleaning, gardening, social media, photography and content creation. It was done at a comfortable pace and care was taken to ensure what you did would be something you would enjoy as well. Thank you to Cyrus, Andrea and Birch for a lovely stay- I will always remember my first time living in the countryside and all the wonderful memories :)

Daniel was willing to help with any task. He also enjoyed music like we do and went with us to play at nursing homes to entertain. We got to listen to him practicing accordian in his spare time and even helped fix it when his very aged leather strap broke. He got to know my chineese dates (jujubes) very well picking them a couple of times as they were very productive this year!

Barnabas is a wonderful person; curious, friendly, always with a smile on his face, and a true volunteer spirit. He was eager to help with a variety of tasks and approached everything with capability and humility. We really enjoyed spending time with him and appreciated both his contributions and his great company. Anyone who hosts him will be lucky to have his support. Thank you so much, Barnabas, for all your help and the energy you put into our project. We wish you the very best on your travels ahead!🙏🏼🪷

Did a lot of chauffeur my husband around. She also helped in the gardens and kitchen. Taught her a bit about herbs and she was an anxious learner.

My two weeks at Jus & Kim's farm went super fast ! I have had the opportunity to experiment and take part of the farm life in Bohinjska Bela, 5km away from the famous Bled lake. Daily tasks like watering the seeds and feeding the animals, walking the dogs (and the pig 😊). But also a lot of wood working : creating 25cm logs out of huge trees, in order to prepar the winter. Fruits collecting and more. There is a lot of other projects running at the farm! And it is super nice to cook with freshly collected vegetables. Bohinjska Bela is a cute village surrounded by a valley that will let you speechless. You can go hiking in the area, borrow a bike to go to the Bohinj Lake. And easily reach Ljubljana thanks to reliable public transports.

I’m sorry for the late review — but Juls deserves every word of it. What an incredible adventure she helped us create! My sister and I had an amazing time helping Juls with gardening and house maintenance. Let me start with a little story. You know how in some households people just co-exist — sharing meals, doing chores, but never really connecting? That’s the type of culture we grew up in: where interaction is shaped by routine and duty, not intimacy. At Juls’s, everything was the complete opposite. She made every moment about genuine connection. We played countless board games, had deep conversations (with plenty of tears and laughter), and she always found ways to bring us together. She went above and beyond to support us, to care, to entertain, and simply to be present as a loving human being. When I struggled to keep up with my morning walks, she was the first to offer company — just because she cared. Juls is a beautiful ball of warmth, resilience, and love. From the very first day, we knew we’d want to return and help her in any way possible. Her generous spirit, open communication, and authentic kindness shine through in everything she does. She creates a culture you naturally want to contribute to. She has impeccable taste, a laugh that fills the room no matter how difficult life gets, and an infectious love for people. She understands how much it costs to truly show up for others — and she does it, wholeheartedly. Volunteering at Juls’s was both demanding (because she inspires you to be your best) and incredibly rewarding, because she is so grateful, never entitled, and deeply honest. That honesty creates a rare and safe atmosphere where “whatever is going on, you can always talk about it.” And that’s exactly what makes life with her feel so real, so human, and so comforting. We miss her. And if you ever get the chance to volunteer for Juls, you will absolutely miss her too.

Ali was a calm, stable and solid member of our team. Always willing to help, did a good job and very trustworthy. Thank you Ali. Come back anytime!

I was staying with Christine for about 2 weeks at her lovely, huge farm near the small town Tunes in the countryside. All what is there based on her own work, managmend and ideas for about 50 years. I really appriciate the time together with Christine , ecspecially the dinner together outside on the terasse with candlelight and insted tv or radio we had the sound of birds, an owl and crickets . It was interesting helping out in the garden in der climat at the Algarve. All the citrus- trees are amazing. Christine is a very nice, friendly person. Thank you , Christine, for the hostpitality!!

It was a very enriching experience! Spending time with a beautiful and loving family was wonderful. The place feels a vibrant energy from the first moment. They make you feel welcome at all times. They dedicate themselves with love and patience to each task, and being able to collaborate on it filled our souls with happiness. The place is very quiet and peaceful, full of life, ideal for keeping your mind calm at all times. Bungalows made with love and attention to every detail, radiant sunrises amidst nature, and peaceful nights to the gentle rhythm of the river and crickets—a genuine respite. You can experience the essence of Laos amidst the sensations and smells in the kitchen with Somlid! He is a master at preparing food. Nina is welcoming, and we truly felt very close thanks to her patience and love with which she shares her knowledge and ideas. The children are so radiant, full of love and energy to share! Adorable pets to care for and spend time with while you feel their love. It truly filled our souls to be part of their magic! I am grateful for every moment, it will remain in our hearts forever....

We had a wonderful time staying in the beautiful mountains. We got to spend a few days with Tin, being regaled by his stories, working alongside him in the garden and having some great laughs. We were grateful to share some permacultural knowledge with Tin, particularly in relation to the local environment. For most of the two weeks it was just us, caring for the chickens, Keira the cat, Sam the turtle and taking long walks with Jaro the dog. It felt great to get stuck into the garden, cleaning and tidying up both inside and outside the house. The mountains are so serene and it was such a wonderful respite from our life on the road. It's evident that there's been a lot of love woven into that place from so many different hearts and hands. Tin obviously brings out the best in people. We're sure we'll see him again one day, one way or another!

We spent just under a week at Anja and Alberto’s home, and it was truly a very special time for us. We loved walking their beautiful dog Pippo, who has stolen our hearts, and we also enjoyed working in their lovely garden and helping to clean the porch. Thank you, Anja, for being such a radiant person. Your kindness and enthusiasm for life are truly contagious. We had so many wonderful conversations, shared delicious dinners, and even spent some creative time making monotypes together. We also had the pleasure of spending a little time with Alberto, who is such a fun, energetic person with a real passion for classic Italian movies hahaha Thanks a million for everything! We miss you!

Once upon a time, there was a small, gray-haired boy named MAX! He was born in the body of a beautiful puppy with the mission of enlightening humans along the way! He traversed deserts, braved storms, crossed the mighty currents of deep rivers, and climbed steep mountains! Yet, with immense bravery, he survived the wickedness of men! All actions with great nobility, strength, and determination! His gaze was luminous and exuded serenity! Oh, he had a unique way of walking: his hind legs kind of floated from side to side in a cadence reminiscent of the beating of an angel's wings! Why not a Seraph?! In a certain distant kingdom in the lands of Ireland, Max fought against hostile savages who were mistreating the Canis lupus familiaris clan. For weeks, alone, he survived the terrifying forces of Evil. It seemed like the end of that valiant warrior. However, fate provided an epic twist. Thus, from the limits of the known world, by enchantment, an Amazon warrior named Valerie emerged: energetic, strong, and fearless! She fought alongside Max, and together, they defeated barbarism. Thus, after being named Prince of Ballyglunin, Max went to live in an enchanted castle with Princesses Missey, Princess Phoebe, the warrior Valerie, and Prince Daniel! Together, they formed a happy family based on harmony, peace, and unconditional love! One day, Mr. Time knocked on the castle door and whisked Max away to the land of memories that are never erased! However, the legacy of that noble warrior lives on in the hearts of all who had the honor of knowing and loving him! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Here, I thank the family for the opportunity to live with, walk with, feed, hug, and, often in the mornings, provide a medicine tablet with ham for the adorable Max boy for 10 weeks. You all made a huge difference in his life and gave him the best he deserved! Gratitude!

George and Avery are a lovely couple brimming with youthful talent. They are highly independent and inquisitive. I was often away from home during their stay . but they found ways to contribute on their own, proposing and updating designs and documentation for this project. George created a rendering of my porch's finished look, took photos at a nearby factory with his camera, and even helped neighbors. Avery participated in a Hagi-yaki workshop and enjoyed experiencing the local community. Their stay helped clarify the essential aspects of my project. Thank you!

Andy's stay was an incredibly exciting time. We fixed the roof together, demolished an old house to salvage materials, and shared so many adventures. He's bursting with energy and tackles carpentry work at an amazing pace. I hope we can one day realize our dream of creating that Japanese garden we envisioned together. Thank you!

ash and Rory are amazing human beings and they created a land that is beyond magical. Since I arrived I felt like I was in a deep cleansing process, with intense dreams and revelations. This is a powerful place for rebirth, with wonderful Nature and a stunning tiver. The sky at night is filled with the beauty of the stars 🙂 There was a balance between sharing time with the people that were around and spending time on my own. I felt like I was with family and that I was free to be myself and share ideas about the world. I was able to participate in some of the activities during the retreats and there was also a free yoga class one day per week that volunteers could join. Sometimes we were able to use the sauna and the hot tuve, which was ao relaxing! I was blessed to have found you and get to spend this time with you, you inspired me a lot and I came out with a full heart! Grateful for every moment, I wish you all the best and I hope to see you further in the future 🤍🙏

It has been a real pleasure to host Valentina for 2 weeks in September 2025. She is a reliable, respectful, proactive young lady and we were really satisfied with her interaction with the kids and the help we received in the house. We especially appreciated that she was able to organize the free time during her stay and that she proved to be always useful when home with us. We hope she had a nice time with us and we wish she can come back to discover Sicily even better than she did.

Had a lovely two weeks in Martvili with the Gang. Met many new and interesting people (both guests and volunteers) and worked on interesting projects. The hours are good and there is plenty to do and see in the area on your off days. The cooking team made amazing food everyday and dinner was never the same. The dorm was cozy, spacious and clean. Great place, would deffinately recommend it.

Having Marianna as a guest was a wonderful memory. It was the hot summer season, but helped with weeding and cleaning. also cooked Polish dishes for us, got along well with other guests, and was very friendly. Going together to Japanese festivals and hot springs was a truly wonderful memory.
