My time at the Center was everything I could have hoped for. I felt welcome from the moment I arrived and everyone was very attentive and helpful. I worked in the kitchen and the hours were split throughout the day which made it easy to manage. It was brilliant working with other volunteers and it didn't feel like work! I will forever remember the memories and people I met here, it was such a beautiful experience and exactly what I had hoped. I was grateful to learn about buddism and enjoyed the meditations, it is a very peaceful environment here! Thank you for helping me grow 😊

It was a great experience you have the opportunity to live with many people from different countries, cultures and religions which gives you the opportunity to learn many new things, you meet amazing people and everyone inside the KMC are wonderful people super friendly, you can always talk to them if you have a problem of any aspect and they are willing to help where they can, it is a quiet place and in the forest which gives you the opportunity to be quiet and do outdoor activities.

Meeting and working with many people in the château, including those from the Center and around the world, was a great experience for me. Through the English breaks held twice a week and the books available, I was able to learn about Buddhism and the Center. The work itself was easy except during the busy season (I mainly helped wash dishes in the cafeteria and occasionally assisted with cooking), and I was so happy to be included in the celebrations for Christmas and New Year. When you take a walk around the area, you'll be impressed by the clear winter air and the beautiful forests ☺️🌿

This was my first experience traveling as a volunteer, and I truly believe I couldn't have picked a better place. Everyone was so kind and sweet, and I felt truly welcomed. The work was manageable and rewarding, and it taught me a lot about teamwork. The place is incredibly beautiful, and the environment is wonderfully peaceful. I'm leaving now feeling happy and grateful for this experience. Thank you to everyone at the center for creating such a welcoming atmosphere.

I had a very good experience at the Center. I met many people, whether they were volunteers, people who were on retreat or lived there. They were all very nice people and always willing to help. I was in the kitchen area and the work was easy and not at all hard. I had between 3 and 4 shifts of 1 or 2 hours each per day. In my free time I could participate in certain meditations, walk around the area and they lend you some bikes. There's not many places nearby, but it's a beautiful place. You also have Le Mans 1 hour away by bus.

Volunteering at the Center the Center was such a great experince. The location is wonderful - an amazing castle in the middle of pure nature where good vibe people gather to practice modern budism. Everyone is there to help if you need or have any questions, the work is fun and easy. What I really appeciated is the fact that I had the chance to participate to the meditations and teachings of Spiritual Director Gen Kelsang Eupame which really helped me to get a better understanding of modern budism and how to apply it in day to day life in order to live in peace and happiness.
