Linde and Said were incredible hosts. I felt completely welcomed and safe from the minute I stepped off the bus.
The work was easy and relaxed — we mainly worked in the fields cutting alfalfa. All meals were shared at the table and we always ate together. The mix of volunteers from all over the world made it even better — we truly came together as … read more

We experienced Michael as a very hardworking, pro active & kind man.

I volunteered at Karuna’s beautiful super adobe home in El Nachal, Mexico—just as she described. What an inspiration! This woman pours her soul into everything she does, literally living the off-grid dream we’ve all heard about but rarely seen. Together we worked all day under that warm sun, shaping walls from earth and dreams alike. And come … read more

Michael is the BEST volunteer I’ve had here! If I could give him 10 stars, I would!

Michael is a wonderful man. He is considerate, conscious and easy to speak with. He takes initiative and is interesting and has a good sense of humor.

He came to help me for 2 weeks after he completed a 10 day meditation retreat.

He drove here on a rented … read more
