I couldn't have started better! My first volunteering experience was in an incredible place with cozy accommodation and great meals! Gale really has a talent for cooking! I feel grateful to have had the support since from the beginning, the hostess kindly picked me up upon my arrival and made me feel at home! I hope I contributed as much as I received! Gale you were amazing! I will always remember this unique experience with gratitude and affection! On top of that, I was also able to admire a pleasant and amazing landscape, and practice French! Merci Gale! À tout l'heure

The host nicely caught me at the train station, lodged, and provided food – a cosy house and private room! But I was roughly answered from the beginning, when I tried to do questions to precisely understand and collaborate/contribute even more with the assigned tasks – unfortunately I was not able to continue under this atmosphere.

Lago, as you fully explained you were welcomed , in such an amazing place when others pay over 1500 per week, you should better reflect to your own attitude. You didn't respect the commitment of daily 5 hours. it is evident that you are a silver spoon, hoping to be in a nice place and just give the impression, whilst indicating of not being able to understand anything. i wish you all the best. yogaretreatmeditation dot com... this is where you stayed with your beautiful private room and bathroom.
