The stay was really lovely!! The host family really accepts volunteers as part of their family and you get to know a lot about sri lankan culture. The always help you with everything and make you feel so welcomed! The only think to critise is that you also have to work on saturdays, which is not mentioned on Worldpackers.

My volunteering experience here was really special! From when I arrived I was welcomed like family and felt at home. The work at the school was enjoyable and the hours were reasonable, with lots of free time to explore kandy in the afternoons. Nisa went above and beyond to help me plan day trips on my Sunday day off; she helped me organise transport and made sure I made the most out of my time in Sri Lanka, including visits to tea factories, temples, city centre and cafe recommendations. This was my first worldpackers experience and I would wholeheartedly recommend to anyone

From the moment I arrived, Nisa and her family made me feel completely at home—like a true member of their family. Every moment spent with them was filled with joy, from fun-filled afternoons and late-night card games to our cooking sessions and even the special birthday I celebrated with them.

Saying goodbye was definitely hard, but they’ll always have a special place in my heart.

The teaching experience itself was just as incredible. The kids were so sweet, curious, and full of energy—it was a joy to spend time with them every day.

I will be forever grateful for this experience❤️
