Would loved to have stayed at the village longer but unfortunately I had to move on due to flight arrangements. The other volunteers I met at the village made my time there, I also fell in love with the dogs and chickens! It’s a beautiful little village, Lelly and Cat have some great ideas and are very welcoming, interesting, and happy people.
