Warrior Training in a 300 Yr Old Mountain House

Belgio

5

My two weeks are now sadly up. I had a great time at the Center. The house is beautiful, just as the surroundings, the sunrise every morning, and the town the Center. Steve's a great host, who you can easily join on whatever he's got going on, who's always playing music, has lived a hundred lives and someone you can learn loaaads from. I unfortunately didn't get to meet Saphira, but I only heard good things about her :) The work is minimal and easy, so there's loads of time to really relax and just chill out for a minute. Big big love to Steve, the house and the other volunteers!!🫶🏼

The Center is magical place filled with amazing people. It's a great opportunity to reconnect with nature while meeting people from all over the world:) Even though I stayed there for only 2 weeks I feel like I've grown as a person and learned more about myself! Never felt more at peace. I hope to come back one day:D

My time at the Center was exactly as expected. In the winter it's peaceful and quiet, perfect for reconnecting with nature and yourself. Steve, Saph, and the rest of the volunteers were nothing but kind to me. You feel at home and like a family quickly here. My heart is fuller because of this place. I miss everyone already!

Had a great time, if you're looking to get away and relax in nature during your travels with good people, this is the place. Steve and Saph are super generous with their home and kitchen, and the surrounding area is great for hiking.

La experiencia fue distinta a lo que esperaba: lo que leí en la descripción y comentarios no coincidió del todo con lo que viví. La 1ª semana me sentí sola y desubicada; eché en falta una bienvenida más cálida y propuestas de actividades, en el centro y en los alrededores. Hablé con Silvia sobre ello y después noté más apertura. Las clases dirigidas fueron buenas. La vida allí es muy tranquila, vegetariana y con mucho tiempo libre, por lo que es clave venir con iniciativa, con actividades de ocio propias y sabiendo que la mayoría habla inglés. El entorno es precioso y permite desconectar.

我希望尽可能客观的评价这个地方。 积极的:1.这个地方很安静，完全可以享受自然，日出很美，晚上可以看星星。2.你有很多时间可以做自己想做的事情。3.我在这边交到了很好的朋友4.感谢jay和silvia的课和美味的饼干。5.有一只很可爱的狗狗，三只可爱小猫，他们可爱。 改进：1.这边很多苍蝇，睡觉的时候甚至会被苍蝇吵醒！这很难受。2.大家会一起吃午饭，host有时候会一起吃，有时候不会一起吃，但不会提前和我们说。3.和详情介绍里不一样的是，他们没有狐狸，没有鹅，鸡只是关在小屋里，羊群也只是远远的可以看到，并不是他们的羊。他们没有花园，没有种植植物的体验，并没有人带我们游览城镇，也没有参加过镇上的活动。这些让我感受到了欺骗。 注意：1.如果提前走的话，钱是不退的，建议不要一次付所有的钱。2.你必须要给自己安排事情，不然会无聊。3.日常的素食只是针对志愿者的，host他们会给自己准备肉吃。 我喜欢这个地方，因为我交到了很多朋友，大家都很好，也很远离城市，如果你想要停下脚步自己安排日常生活，推荐。

Overall, i did enjoy my time at casa. i think this place has a lot of potential but i def came at an off time. the volunteers made my experience here. i was met with so many kind welcoming people. the boxing/yoga/ dance classes offered are taught with so much heart . i wish they were taught more consistently. i think the description is a bit inaccurate so definitely communicate with the hosts to make sure you fully understand what you're signing up for. if you are looking for a rich cultural exchange this might not be the place for you. to recharge in nature i think its great & v beautiful

What is written in the World packer's description is very different to the reality of this experience. Meeting other travellers was good and everyone was lovely but the host and the experience as a whole was not what I expected and I did not enjoy myself. You are also required to pay on the first day you arrive and if you leave for any reason they will not give you that money back.

I had a good time meeting other volunteers but other than this it is not what I would choose to do. The experience was a lot different to what they had shown on their page … there was no dogs unfortunately, which was the reason I chose this experience. The tasks ended up being running the house and doing chores for jay and Silvia - nothing ecological.

‏I spent two and a half weeks in the Center, and had a really good time! The area is beautiful and quiet, and it feels like you transform into a completely different atmosphere. I had a lot of free time to do whatever I wanted, and met so many new friends. ‏I find it important to mention that a lot of the activities that was written on their profile page didn't actually happen, so the place is great if you're looking for chill and free time, but in my opinion not the best place to learn new skills and experience farm life. Overall very happy for the experience.
