I had an amazing experience at the eco village! I stayed for a week, but it felt like only two days because time flew by so quickly. Angelo, our host, was absolutely perfect. He made sure we had everything we needed and cooked delicious Filipino food. The place is peaceful and relaxing, surrounded by nature. I helped to build a bamboo table with the locals, and everyone was so kind and welcoming. If you're looking for a wonderful experience and want to escape the busy city life, this is the perfect destination!

I had the best first volunteering experience at the eco village! I felt so welcomed by Angelo and the indigenous community. At first I bonded with the tribe while building a bamboo table for the children, then later they invited me to a personal celebration they had which was so sweet of them <3 I'm so so grateful! This experience gave me more emotions than I expected:) As the photography/social media volunteer, I created a creative guideline for the eco village's digital presence and did a photography project with the tribe. The schedule is flexible and Angelo encourages you to do what you love. Salamat po!!!!🫂

There are few places in this world that you rarely find yourself getting into real adventure, the eco village is something else. The rest you have to reveal it by yourself.

The time in the eco village was relly nice. We learn a lot about the Project of the eco village and also about bamboo. It was even better than we imagined. We worked together with some of the local workers on projects. It's a nice and calm place in the middle of the mountains. I can just recommend to go there and make your own experience.

I volunteered at the eco village through Worldpackers and stayed for 6 days. I honestly wished I could've stayed longer if I didn't have other travel plans. The experience was amazing—the mountain and forest views were beyond expectations, and the waterfalls were absolutely stunning. The accommodations are nestled between the mountains, perfect for anyone looking for peace and quiet. The food was delicious, the people were kind, and the work hours were super flexible. I truly enjoyed every moment there.

I had a wonderful time at the eco village, even though I had to cut my stay short due to some health issues. I'm truly grateful to Angelo for taking care of me. He's such a great host. My perspective on bamboo has changed, and the whole experience was eye-opening. The place is peaceful, beautiful, and quiet, so different from the hustle and noise of the city. I was able to immerse myself in the community, and although it was a bit challenging to adjust at first, the experience was incredibly grounding. the eco village humbles you. It makes you appreciate the simple things we often take for granted.

This was my third volunteering experience, and to be honest, it was my favorite so far! The place is amazing the people, the accommodation, everything. We had plenty of food provided. I learned a lot about bamboo construction, and at the same time, it was nice to see how the eco village works. It's not just a bamboo farm; they also work closely with the community. Everyone working there is always happy and welcoming. One great thing is that you can contribute in the area you're most interested in,whether it's farming, construction, or design. Angelo is always there to help you, with a big smile.

An ever evolving example of an alternative Eco-conscious way of living. The property is filled with multiple surreal bamboo structures. For my working hours I spent most of my time landscaping for a community garden for the Matigsalug Tribe. Spent some of my free time playing basketball, singing kareokee, and just getting to learn about their lives and culture. Explored the near by nature too. Learned the basics of bamboo building, permaculture, and earth building from the knowledgeable and kind host Angelo. Also had a beautiful conversation with Rica, about life and the world. Thank you HFS!
