I stayed for a month, it was my first Worldpackers experience, and I had an incredible time. the community made me feel very welcomed from day one. I can confirm that he cooks delicious meals, my favourite was the apple pie! The work was nicely varied, stacking firewood, cleaning the b&bs, preparing the garden for the summer. The work hours agreed upon are respected. I recommend this experience to anyone looking to connect with nature and find grounding. I'm very grateful for all the French practice I got by talking with the community and Leo. Thank you for having me, till next time!

We volunteered in the community's place for two weeks, the place is idyllic, in the middle of nature, with different animals and exotic birds. It's very good place to get away from civilisation and busy city to doze off. Tasks were not complex, but required more consistency and entusiastic mindset. It fit our characters, and we had good teamwork with other volunteers. The working schedule was flexible and also depending on weather, we had enough time to ourselves. The food was really good, the community made special dishes. Also thank you to Ivan, who helped us and was very kind and fun person!

Our experience with the community was good, the place is in the middle of a wonderful forest, is like 20 min from the town and you can get there only by car, when the community goes there. We had a flat for the meals and days off and the dormitory were over it, it has a dry toilet and the shower is with a bucket, he cook for the Lunch and dinnner and give you things for breakfast, there is no WiFi and I recommend to bring everything you need before you arrive. The activities were also cleaning. Thank you for everything.
