I stayed with Pedro for less than one week. The land is very beautiful and Pedro knows a lot about plants. The volunteer house is very basic but cute. Also nice to be without electricity sometimes. The work depends on the day. Some day very hard, another day more slow and patience is needed. We where also expected to cook for Pedro with the… read more

Margot did a good job here, working on our small organic farm. She delayed her departure a little in order to wait for the next workawayer to arrive which was really helpful to us. I wish Magot success and fulfilment with all of her future workaway placements.

Be ready to become very fit from working in the garden (the center has beautiful avocado tree's, jackfruit, pomello's, Kéfir lime trees, cofee, vegetable gardens with everything, ect) and joining the kung fu training.

I can highly recommend Margot & Rita, fully self-employed with their own car and tent and even very helpful beyond the agreed working hours. Would gladly host them again anytime!

We stayed at Thomas' place in hills for one week. The work was hard, digging, cutting branches in the sun on the slope. It was for a good cause tho, we really enjoyed our time with the other volunteers, playing volleybal. Thomas is also a great cook.

We stayed at Ashley s Quinta for a few days, it was a great experience. We got to know Fritz and her Friesche horses, we helped a bit with the fencing, discovered the stunning area of Marmelette and the via vincentiana, and refreshed at the lake. Greetings from Margot and Rita!

Margot and Rita were fantastic volunteers. They helped with the building of one of the new huts, also collecting wood for the bonfire. They did some cool paintings on the walls and they were always ready to cook together. We enjoyed our time on the chais we had. Thanks for your collaboration and I would definitely recommend them as workawayers.… read more

I stayed with Ratan for 5 days. It was one of the most beutiful places I've been in India. Outside of all the noise and caos of the cities. His place is surrounded by desert, and there's nothing around as far as the eye can see. I loved the desert life. Morning Chai, cooking in the fire, taking water from the well, collecting wood at sunset,… read more

I was in the center for 10 days in April.
I was looking for some 'me' time and found endless peace and serenity at the center. Everyone was doing their own thing, but I could ask assistance if needed. My job was too clean the house and kitchen everyday. It s a professional Rawfood kitchen, the food makes you feel really good and has loads of… read more
