Description

Hello! I’m Lou - a 31-year-old Australian with dreams to explore the world.

I am excited to be a part of many different volunteer projects, where I hope to learn new skills while also utilising my strengths. I love meeting new people and experiencing something different and challenging. I am at a point in my life where I am ready to face the unknown and grow and develop as a person while getting a bit lost in what the world has to offer!

Lou has been an excellent volunteer. She is very organized, brings great energy and spirit and is very helpful in many ways. Having had her here for 4 weeks was a real blessing.

My experience at the retreat center was what one could only call magic! The communication prior to arrival with Floris was thoughtful and comprehensive, I felt well equipped with information and what would be expected of me as a volunteer.

The place is nestled in the rugged, mountainous village of Órgiva. The land is special, full of beautiful … read more nooks to spend time in. Floris, Paulina and their gorgeous little girl Amba are a kind and compassionate family. I loved getting to know them more and more each day. I felt welcomed as part of the family and noticed an easeful synergy in energy. Especially spending quality time with Amba was a favourite pastime — she is so full of wonder and spirit, she taught me so much.

The work was reasonable overall. The part I enjoyed the most was cooking for the retreat guests and deepening my own skill in that space. It felt beautiful to be in service for the guests, even tasks like cleaning were fulfilling. I had an idea to create a guidebook for the volunteers which collated all the instructions and information required as well as recipe examples in case cooking was a new skill. It feels great to have completed that and for it to be a helpful resource for Floris and Paulina.

The land is only a 20 minute walk from the main village and around 40 minutes drive from beautiful, pristine beaches. There was still plenty of time off in amongst shifts to see and do everything I wanted. I was also able to work online for my clients which was a huge plus. Being able to live in a tent and service retreat guests while also being able to tend to my online business was extremely fulfilling.

The fellow volunteers, community members and retreat guests were wonderful and of course, as it goes living in communal spaces, conscious conversations about boundaries and needs are always important. I’m thankful to have been given the opportunity to grow as a person through the art of living amongst others.

As a special bonus, I was able to attend yoga classes, participate in song circles and other adventures during the retreats. Some days it felt like I was on a retreat myself, which I think is something very unique about choosing somewhere like this place.

Words can’t really express the gratitude I have for my time there, but if you’re considering it, don’t hesitate — you’ll get much more than you could have expected (in the best possible way!).

Sending love to Paulina, Floris, Amba and all the animals — I hope to return someday 💜

We were incredibly fortunate to have Louise as a volunteer at Taman Resort. From the moment she arrived, it was clear that she was a genuinely wonderful person who brought warmth and positivity to everyone.

I am beyond grateful for the myriad of wonderful experiences at Taman Resort. I spent just under three months there and would describe my journey as no less than life changing. I had the opportunity to teach yoga to resort guests, offer Zenthai Shiatsu massage to the staff, as well as design the visual identity and website for the resort’s new sub … read more

It’s been a wonderful week staying and volunteering with Chris. Chris is a warm and gentle-natured human who has a beautiful outlook on life. It was amazing to spend time with him, hear his incredible life stories and what he’s been through to get where he is today.

I’ve learned so many new things in a week, from how to mix cement (the old … read more

It was a pleasure to have Lou helping me for a week at my property. She fitted into my bush lifestyle very easily and was quick to learn new skills she was unfamiliar with. It was great having interesting and intelligent talks during her stay. Lou was a great help cleaning and organising my place and building some cement foundations for my shed. … read more

Volunteering at KP was an incredible experience and completely different to what I could have expected it to be. Even though the retreat itself is gorgeous - filled with beautiful nature, yoga classes and amenities - it was the connected and like-minded volunteers that made the experience unmatched to any other. There’s a special community within … read more

Ahhh where do I begin with Magda... such an incredibly creative, independent, strong and inspiring woman. It has been an absolute pleasure to stay at her beautiful and vast home, where she has built magical pathways and pretty nooks full of flowers, homegrown veges, fruits and herbs. Spending time with Magda and her many friendly furry family … read more
