Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Our staff is very friendly, and willing to learn from a cultural exchange, Timor-Leste is a country with a very strong culture and traditions, and while being with us, the volunteers will have the opportunity to learn a lot about timorese culture and costumes. Normally we do weekly trips to our farm in Baucau, 3 hours drive from Dili, and the volunteers can also join and get the chance to see the country side, and learn from a permaculture farm and seed bank that has been stablished since 2011.
