This experience is truly one of the best. My time at thethe Center helped me grow so much as a person and truly find myself. The work was easy going and helped me get in touch with nature again. The host and facilities were amazing and felt like home. I would definitely recommend to anyone looking to get in to touch with nature and their inner self.

This place is the perfect home for introverts and people who need to reconnect with nature and themselves. you will lots of time to work on your own and find your balance. there's always tasks that need to get done, but they're always open to hear your ideas of what you feel like doing each day or what brings you the most joy to do. they encourage you to work at your own pace, making sure you're present within yourself and your energy. there's opportunities to work with other volunteers but you will be on your own primarily. this place is ideal for introverts & neurodivergent people <3

I recommend this experience to anyone who wants to discover their inner world. Marcel and Jerin are wonderful people, open to all kinds of conversations and ready to listen. Harm is an amazing person, and his porridge every morning is unforgettable! The work is balanced with breaks, and at the end of the day, you will feel satisfied. Atthe Center, you are completely immersed in nature; it's truly a piece of peace in a chaotic world.

I had an amazing experience atthe Center, it's a beautiful, calm and powerful place to be, to meditate and connect with nature. Marcel and Jerien are kind hosts, they care about the volunteers and explain well the tasks! The work includes gardening, cleaning, and cooking, it depends on the Center's schedule. The accommodation was good. Working hours and breaks were respected. Helping with the food preparation was awesome! Tasting the veg dishes??? Super lekker!! The other volunteers were super nice and added joy to my days! I recommend thethe Center! Bedankt Marcel, Jerien, and Papa! ❤️
