The project is amazing and made even better by a great host. The kitchen was always fully stocked with food and if we wanted anything different we just needed to ask. The work was interesting and varied. Don is doing fantastic carving and Sam is a great host. I hope to visit again and see the progress.

I had the most incredible time with the organization over the last three weeks. Sam and Jim are caring leaders who really want the best for the volunteers and getting to know Donald and practice French with him was a joy. The work is interesting and makes you feel accomplished knowing that you've contributed to something that will outlast us all. The area is beautiful and Sam was kind enough to show us the local sights. The facilities were clean and well maintained and Sam was always ready to assist with any needs. I cannot recommend this experience enough and I hope to be back many times. ❤️

My stay at the organization was really great, I am glad I chose them as my first Worldpackers experience! I learned a lot in my two weeks at the site. The project itself is amazing, however no matter how good the mission is, it is the people at the organization who make it a truly unbelievable and inspiring. Donald, the mastermind behind this idea, is a true role model for everyone, very diligent and positive. Same goes for Sam, Jim and Suzie. They are very very kind and helpful and did their best to make me feel comfortable. I hope to return sometime in the future, definitely!

I had a great time here! Beautiful location, cool team members, and really amazing vibe in general:) It was so inspiring to see people doing something they are so passionate about! To sum up, if you want to meet amazing people, learn few new things and travel around Burgundy- this is a perfect choice. Hope to stay in touch with everyone and see how building is going! Can't wait to celebrate the grand opening of finished edifice;)

I had the best time at the organization! I felt incredibly well looked after and nurtured. There was a great diversity of tasks that allowed me to do both hands on things and more cerebral, problem solving tasks. I loved bonding with the team - Sam, Donald, Suzi and Jim - and with my fellow volunteers. We had great opportunity to be a part of the local community as well. Not only would I recommend the experience, but I am determined to come back myself. A bientôt!

The experience of volunteering at the organization Gothic with Sam and Jim was incredible. Jim is the person who teaches us the daily work tasks, he is a very friendly, patient and cheerful person. Sam is the manager of the whole project, an incredible person with a beautiful life story and always concerned about our stay. I would definitely recommend this volunteer.

Having participated in this project is to know that I was doing something great and being part of the Russel family's dream project. In addition, it made me learn about buildings and architecture in the medieval Gothic style. The work is very interesting, Jim (the project manager) loves explaining the techniques used and he always respected the agreed working hours. Also, Sam (the host) is an incredible person and always made me feel at home. He also took the volunteers to go out on our free days and he always has great stories to tell about his life experiences.

The organization Gotique is an amazing experience. Sam is an excellent host, he's always making sure that we have everything we need. Susie was great as well, I had a really good time with all the activities she took us on. Jim is just great, he is a fantastic teacher. I learned a lot from him, from how to use power tools correctly to how to drive a tractor. I would recommend this experience to architects, architecture students, and anyone who enjoys building and learning. It extends your academic knowledge and tests your 3D spatial thinking by learning through doing the real job.
