Dear Gaby, Thank you so much for your beautiful and heartfelt feedback. We are truly grateful for the time, energy, and love you shared with our students and community. It makes us very happy to know that you enjoyed your stay with Senuja’s family and that you were able to experience Sri Lankan culture in a meaningful way. They will be very touched by your kind words. We are also glad that you appreciated the freedom and spirit of our program and brought your own creativity to the classes and activities. Your warmth, positivity, and dedication meant a lot to our children. They genuinely enjoyed spending time with you, and your presence made a lovely impact on everyone here. Thank you again for your kindness and support. You will always have a special place in our family, and you are most welcome to visit us anytime in the future. We already miss you too 🧡

I stayed at Tuve's place for three weeks and really enjoyed living so close to nature. The workload was reasonable, and I could take breaks whenever I needed to. I felt comfortable and respected throughout my stay. The food was delicious! We shared recipes, and I went home feeling inspired, especially when it came to baking fresh sourdough bread and buns. Tuve also showed me how to make a basket, which was a really nice, unique experience. Another highlight was going on a little 'safari' to explore the wildlife. Overall, I had a great time and I'm very grateful for the experience:)

Hailing from Scotland, Rosie was one of the last cohort of volunteers to arrive late in 2025. Rosie has a lot of energy, is extremely helpful, always with a ready smile. She is very social and had a lot of laughs with us and the other volunteers, despite the somewhat dreary weather (well.... it must have reminded her a bit of Scotland!). It was a time for preparing things for winter, getting some late season veg out to market and even helping out at the Xmas market in the nearest village! Rosie did a fabulous job setting up the table and beautifully arranging the jams and the Xmas baskets. And of course, she was a great partner to cheer with me and some Xmas hot wine, or cider, or whatever we could get our hands on..... We would love to see Rosie back with us, so that she can see how things develop on our farm, greet the cats again, and taste the jams. Come back to experience this amazing nature in a different season! Big hugs and lots of smiles!!!!!

Younas is a valuable person, with a huge heart, a wonderful vision, and great plans. I am happy to be his first volunteer! I felt at home from the first day, and his helpers treated me like family. The project that Younas started is brilliant, yet simple. I wish him a lot of success An sha' allah

Jaegan, thank you so much for all your hard work and for always being willing to learn and improve. It was truly a pleasure to meet you and share this time together. I hope you continue to grow professionally and keep exploring the world. We wish you all the best in everything that comes next! Fio

The dynamic duo! Chad and Liam stopped by for less than a week on their way home, they were in a word Awesome! We got more done in 4 days than in the previous 4 weeks! Super skilled, loads of experience, excellent company and great banter! Welcome back anytime!!!

I spent an unforgettable month at the sanctuary and I couldn’t have dreamed of a better first experience. Aimée has an incredible gift for welcoming people and making you feel at home immediately. In just a few weeks, I learned so much: from the daily care of the animals (goats, sheep, pigs) to the more unusual handling of geese, ducks, and even turkeys! Aimée's strength and devotion to her animals are a true source of inspiration. Beyond the farm work, it is an exceptional human adventure. I’m leaving with a head full of memories, endless laughter, and great evenings spent playing board games. If you are looking for a place where love for animals and conviviality reign, this is it. Thank you again, Aimée, for the home you built for us. A part of me will always stay at the farm! Salomé ☀️🐷

I had the chance to work with Tara for a week and it was a really nice experience, for sure I learned a lot about reusing and recycling. The work was fullfilling and fun, Tara and Jim are wonderful people, thank you so much for everything. Tara, keep it up with all the work that you are doing for the town!! it is a great job!!

Mateusz was a good volunteer and a nice person to have at the cafe. During his time with us, he was responsible and cooperative, and he supported the classes in a positive way. He helped create a relaxed environment where students felt comfortable practising their English and joining conversations. He managed group activities well and communicated clearly with both the students and the team. He was open to learning, adaptable, and respectful in his role. While working with different groups, he remained patient and friendly, which the students appreciated. Outside of the classes, he was easygoing and got along well with everyone at the cafe, including the team and other volunteers. Overall, we had a good experience hosting him and we appreciate the time and effort he shared with us. We wish him success in his future plans.Thank you so much for everything

Indy was truly great to have with us, and we were very happy with him throughout his time at the cafe. From the very beginning, he brought a positive attitude, kindness, and a genuine willingness to help. He was responsible, respectful, and easy to communicate with, which made everything run smoothly. He connected very naturally with our Turkish students, creating a comfortable and encouraging atmosphere for them to practice English. They really enjoyed speaking with him, and his patience and friendly personality made a big difference. Beyond helping at the cafe, he also became a lovely part of our small community. It was always nice to have him around, and both the team and the students appreciated his presence. We wished he had stayed longer. We are truly grateful for the time he spent with us and would be more than happy to welcome him back anytime in the future. thank you so much for everything Indy

My stay was amazing ! Jenn, Cory and the whole family are very welcoming and passionnate about their project, they made me feel like home. The tasks were diverses and the missions well explained, the schedule is flexible as long as you're completing the missions, and once again Jenn and Cory are very open for suggestions or further explanations. This volunteering will fit you if you're looking for some manual work in a quiet little paradise, and if you don't mind working on your own. I would recommand 100% this place and i feel very Lucky that i've had my 1st volunteering experience there, thanks again for everything !

Camille fue una ayuda enorme durante su estadía. Desde el primer momento fue muy responsable, organizada y respetuosa con la casa y los tiempos acordados. Agradezco muchísimo su flexibilidad y comprensión al entender que yo no estaba presente como anfitriona durante ese período. Se comunicó constantemente conmigo por WhatsApp, lo que hizo que todo fuera muy fluido y fácil de coordinar. Además, mostró una excelente disposición para colaborar en distintas tareas, siempre con buena actitud. Gracias por tu compromiso y tu energía positiva, Camille. Fue un gusto contar contigo 💛 ...........................................................................................................................................................................

What great experience I just had with José and Nick in their beautiful home ! I spent only 5 days with them but they really made sure that I could feel the most confortable possible. They are very kind and interesting people that are always caring and easy to talk to. The appartement where they let me sleep was very spatious and with everything in it, I was living like a King ! The activities were diversed (gardening, cleaning and helping in general), and José and Nick were always wanting to know if everything was good for me. I also had a really good time with their 10 years old son Charlie who is such a lovable kid. We played a lot together and he really is a very smart kid. It was such good time, I would have loved to make it last longer ! Thanks again for everything, José and Nick.

Staying at Gina’s was very nice, her and her boyfriend are very easygoing and funny so I had a lovely time with them. I had a lot of free time during the week I was there and the job itself was pleasent. And also her pets are sooo sweet! 🫶🏼

I had the pleasure of hosting Chai in mid‑2025. He is a very responsible, mature, and kind person. In addition to working hard outdoors—such as cutting grass and helping to fix the road—he also prepared delicious meals every day. I truly enjoyed hosting and working alongside Chai, and I would highly recommend him to other hosts.

My girlfriend and I stayed with Sara and Harry for three weeks. It was a wonderful three weeks in the Spanish countryside in a typical house with animals. You can choose to sleep in the guest room in the house or in a caravan in the garden. We had the opportunity to borrow bikes or a car, which was a huge plus. Our job was basically taking care of the animals: dogs, cats, chickens, and horses. Plus, we did some work on the house, such as laying a concrete foundation. I can only recommend Sara and Henry for their warm welcome into the family and for always being so nice to us. Thanks again. David and Petra

Having Bibi at home was a real pleasure. She's a good girl, cheerful and smiling, with lots of ideas in her head. She loves animals, which is very important to me, since my dog ​​and cat are always in need of cuddles. The work we did together went well, and I'm very happy with the results. I also felt very comfortable with her. Living at home together can be difficult at times, but we both knew how to respect each other's schedules, and very naturally and willingly, we spent a lot of time together, talking, smiling, joking, and even eating. I highly recommend hosting Bibi; I'm sure you won't regret it. I'm pretty sure a new friendship has been born, and this is an added value to this experience we shared. So what can I say? Thanks again, Bibi, and I hope...see you soon!
