Farm helper at a peaceful sanctuary

Tive uma boa experiência, conheci viajantes de vários países, fiz amizades que levarei pra vida toda. A comida é boa, as caravanas são boas e aquecidas, as camas são confortáveis. Só a estrutura da cozinha dos voluntários que deixa muito a desejar, mas quando saí já estavam fazendo melhorias.

Ramai is a good person and good manager. He listen us and always question if we stay good here. All the experience have bad and good part, but with this I recommend this experience. The good is meet another volunteers and conection with them. Bad part is because the pictures in the Worldpackers isn't the same place we live (have this space but far from), some people from the religion Hare Krishna dont will be good with you and you need to know. And the kitchen isn't a good place to make deal, but they will change and I wish be good for another volunteers when they came.

L'expérience n'est globalement pas mauvaise, mais je ne me suis pas sentis à mon aise dans le "temple". Tout d'abord, il faut savoir que vous ne dormiez absolument pas dans les belles premières photos, mais plutôt dans des bungalow qui se situent à 15 minutes à pied du temple. Comme stipulé dans la plupart des commentaire, il a bel et bien des rats qui se balade dans la cuisine. En parlant de cuisine , sachez que la nourriture n'est pas mauvaise en soi, mais très répétitive, vous mangerez constamment la même chose à base de riz ou de pâtes pour les jours de chances...

Personally, the experience was good. Unfortunately the host is missing a project or planning with his volunteers, they never gave me a tour of the facilities, the temple and the dormitory are two completely different places. In conclusion, the place is perfect and quiet for people who hate the city and need space to breathe and be calm, they will not lack food and housing, it is just a matter of adapting to some technical flaws that the facilities have due to day-to-day use. Thank you for everything, it was very nice to meet very good people, greetings to all and blessings.

Ramai was very welcoming and kind along with the rest of the staff. The work is easy and straightforward but there's not much work in the winter so it can be boring - would be better in summer. Other volunteers and I took initiative to utilize volunteer opportunities like milking the cows, helping in the preschool/kitchen, going on the school tour - this really enhanced the experience and made it worth it! Living quarters need a lot of work - very dirty and rats everywhere. There is also no yoga which was very disappointing. Fun but needs improvement overall. :)

My first volunteering stint was amazing! Ramai, always helpful and talkative, made the experience enjoyable. Accommodations were fine; comfy beds and heating kept me warm during the cold three weeks. Volunteers need to be committed and autonomous due to the diverse tasks. Cleaning and organization in shared spaces like the kitchen need improvement. Working in the garden was a joy, with friendly people. The food, especially on Fridays, was excellent, and there were delightful snacks twice a week. Participating in Hare Krishna activities was fascinating, showcasing their cultural commitment.

This was my very first experience in volunteering. It was a really nice experience. I guess it was exactly what I was looking for - a real farm life. I guess it is very special place so if you want to come you should read carefully the description and the comments in order to figure out if this is what are you looking for. The time is hitting diferently. I really enjoyed and it really helped to find a piece of myself.

It was a pretty nice experience, I met travellers from all around the world and it helped me to improve my English and to get to know different cultures. We made a cool team at the farm, it was a hard work but we had a fun time. The Krishna food is great but sometimes we got few food for dinner, also some of the kitchen guys were rude to us. You are not going to sleep in the temple, you can camp or stay in a caravan with other people. The living room and the kitchen are in the barn and they are not too clean and there are some rats (we are on a farm, so is common). I recommend this experience

My experience was incredible! I stayed for a month and time passed very quickly… I met wonderful people from all over the world and I felt that I developed my English a lot. The work on the farm is super dynamic, we do different activities every day, there is yoga every week, the entire temple team is very nice and the food is very good!!! I highly recommend the experience… Haribol _/\_
