Baturidi homestay volunteering
My house is an ideal place for travellers who want to switch off and reconnect with nature. Located on the edge of the jungle, you can experience the peace and tranquility of North Sumatra, surrounded by the sounds of the river and animals. It is located 45 minutes from the local village of Bukit Lawang.
My name is Romi, I work as a tour guide leading jungle treks in Bukit Lawang. I am really keen to host volunteers at my home in Baturidi. Volunteers will be provided with a tent and camping equipment, and you can make use of the kitchen. I am excited to share my knowledge of building and construction and gardening with you, as well as showing you around Bukit Lawang and the local area. Volunteers will help with basic tasks around the house, such as cleaning and gardening. I am in the process of building my hostel and would appreciate help with that. I am also looking for help and knowledge with using the internet and expanding my trekking business online.

It’s lovely! It’s a pretty chill environment here. 🌿Jungle, beautiful view, animal sounds, good vibes. You will also learn a lot about nature. And I recommend to go swimming in the river in front of the property. Btw. If you say to the guys you are hungry, they will immediately start cooking for you.😂
You can choose between a bungalow or a tent to sleep in (with mattress both).
The food is amazing here. Most of it is from the permaculture garden! Very fresh.
You will also learn how to fish. 🐟
Thank you for everything!

I had an amazing time at Batu Ridi Jungle. It was a perfect opportunity to appreciate how local people live and how they are able to do great things with natural resources. Romi has a strong commitment to maintaining nature and improving the conditions of the community, and he makes you feel like part of his family.
