We were here for only two weeks, but we fell in love with this place!
We worked strictly for 5 hours a day with no overtime, and the friendly local workers were always welcoming and explained everything to us. The local food was incredibly delicious, and we could always enjoy tea with cookies! And the nature around us was simply paradise.

I volunteered for 2 weeks in 2025 February. This was my first Workaway, and it was a really good place to start my workaway experience.
The team organises the voluntary work in structure with proper working time. And you experience different tasks each day.
Thanks for the experience, and best wishes!

Sometimes the task to do are a bit heavy, especially for man, since they involve high physical effort under the sun. But it was also great that I managed to do things related to my own passions.

Every morning, as I got out from bed, I took a small walk to catch the morning glow from a restaurant overlooking a beautiful lawn. Occasionally, a dog named Shinba would follow me, and we'd often gaze at the picturesque sky together. For some reason, he seemed so yogi:) That alone was reason enough for me to feel content with my days. However, it… read more

We spent 10 days here with my wife. This place is truly heaven. A great place for nature lovers. Edmond took great care of us and some days took us out to eat and have fun in genting highlands after work. The other employees were also very nice, we felt at home.
